The light of the Lord is her golden hair!
With legions of angels all looking on,
I raise up the cup and adore Babalon!

Pax Hominibus Bonae Voluntatis by Aleister Crowley in International, Dec 1917.
“The idea of resisting repression is a totally wrong one. Christ submitted willingly to what is generally admitted to be the greatest crime ever perpetrated, although, as he himself explained, he had twelve legions of angels actually mobilized, which would have made as short work of the Romans as the angels of Mons did of the Germans in the early part of the war.” [via]
ΚΕΦΑΛΗ ΜΔ The Mass of the Phœnix in Liber CCCXXXIII, The Book of Lies by Aleister Crowley.
“He strikes Eleven times upon the Bell, and cries ABRAHADABRA.
I entered in with woe; with mirth
I now go forth, and with thanksgiving,
To do my pleasure on the earth
Among the legions of the living.” [via]
