  2. “In the Fable of Adam and Eve is this great Lesson taught by the Masters of the Holy Qabalah. For Love were to them the eternal Eden, save for the Repression signified by the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. Thus their Nature of Love was perfect; it was their Fall from that Innocence which drove them from the Garden.”
  3. “The Fault, that is Fatality, in Love, as in every other Form of Will, is Impurity.”
  4. “the Tabus of savage Tribes in such matter as Love constrain that True Love which is born in us; and by this Constraint come ills of Body and Mind.”
  5. “Now as Literature overfloweth with the Murders of Love, so also doeth History, and the Lesson is ever the same.”
