A dream. Absent from Abbey,
though I know not where. Returning found a woman
present, of a nervous vitality, shall I say?
Magnetic? She held my attention. Knew A.C. in
America. After a time a man, also known by A.C. in
America, seemed to be of the party. These two, (man
& woman) then went away together. |

Opium.
“Resist not evil”—life through
friction. Indifference the deadly sin and deadly
means. Things die when not nourished by love,
interest or hate.
Entered large banqueting
hall—empty. Table set up on angle. Heard scrap of
conversation between goblet and other table
accessories.
A page, a youth differently
garbed from aught I have ever seen pictured, bowed
low and presented me with a package of typewritten
sheets, the first page of which was entirely in
symbol.
Entered oblong room from
another oblong room, at right angles to it. Room I
entered, large, built of logs, plastered between and
white-washed. A sense of light and cleanliness.
Large oblong table stood in centre of room, woman
seated, back to me, at left corner of table &
window, my mother standing farther up the room in
line with sister. Neither had a head. I
soliloquized: they move about, are alive, work;
therefore they have heads though I see them not.
Then I noticed pale blue about my mother. In upper
right-hand corner, set diagonally across it, a large
wardrobe, door of which was plate-glass mirror.
The three women sewing on most
elaborate silken gowns.
At another time during night
and in another place, the same working on elaborate
wardrobe for Lea [Leah Hirsig]. |
