The Mystical Marriage of the Soldier and the Queen

Grady McMurtry

28 June 1962

I am the Virgin of the Queen.

Do you accept me?

I am the Representative of Heaven and Earth.

Do you accept me?

I am the Virgin whereby all things are accomplished,

but am not myself changed thereby.

Do you accept me?

Who accepts my burden may never lay me down.

Do you accept me?

Who binds himself to me can never again be free,

for I am all things to all men.

Do you accept me?

To seek me is to enter upon the Holy Quest for Oblivion,

for you must give All that you may attain Nothing.

Dare you accept me?

I am the Promise and I am the Fulfillment.

Dare you accept me?

I am the Negative in the Supernal Union

of the interpenetration of the Opposites.

Dare you accept me?

I am Purity beyond all comprehension of Cancellation.

I am the Balance of the Wheel, and the Fiery Feather of Maat.

Dare you accept me?

Response:

There is no holier vessel

than a Maiden who has become a Virgin,

for a Virgin may attain

even unto the Throne of the Queen.

Anthem:

We are a community of the living and the dead.

We are the Deathless Stars who manifest

in a Higher State of Existence.

We are the Serpent Flower that is Death and Second Birth.

We are the next Stage of Oblivion.
