Comments by

Aleister

Crowley:

Tahuti being the Lord of Speech, I published number 1 of volume III of The Equinox on March 21st, 1919. I arranged for it to contain something like a complete programme of my proposed Operation to initiate, emancipate and relieve mankind.

The first item is a “Hymn to Pan”, which I believe to be the most powerful enchantment ever written.
