17 November (Nuit) Liber CCXX, 1:15-17
-
15. Now ye shall know that the chosen priest & apostle of infinite space is the prince-priest the Beast; and in his woman called the Scarlet Woman is all power given. They shall gather my children into their fold: they shall bring the glory of the stars into the hearts of men.
16. For he is ever a sun, and she a moon. But to him is the winged secret flame, and to her the stooping starlight.
17. But ye are not so chosen. -

17. But ye are not so chosen.Side point: Jim, did you say that the verses cycle through patterns of 10, corresponding to the Sephirot? That would make these verses correspond to Geburah, Tiphareth, and Netzach, right?

The fit is particularly good for these verses, I think.

17. But ye are not so chosen.PS - There are 22 sets of 10 verses. These seem to me to correspond to the 22 Hebrew letters from Tav to Aleph.
Notice, therefore, how the second set - vv. 11-20 - correspond to Shin especially in the sense of describing the Stele of Revealing. Here they are numbered 1-10 to make the pattern clearer:
@CCXX, vv. 11-20 said
"1. These are fools that men adore; both their Gods & their men are fools.
- Come forth, o children, under the stars, & take your fill of love!
- I am above you and in you. My ecstasy is in yours. My joy is to see your joy.
- Above, the gemméd azure is/ The naked splendour of Nuit;/ She bends in ecstasy to kiss/ The secret ardours of Hadit./ The wingéd globe, the starry blue,/ Are mine, O Ankh-af-na-khonsu!
- Now ye shall know that the chosen priest & apostle of infinite space is the prince-priest the Beast; and in his woman called the Scarlet Woman is all power given. They shall gather my children into their fold: they shall bring the glory of the stars into the hearts of men.
- For he is ever a sun, and she a moon. But to him is the winged secret flame, and to her the stooping starlight.
- But ye are not so chosen.
- Burn upon their brows, o splendrous serpent!
- O azure-lidded woman, bend upon them!
- The key of the rituals is in the secret word which I have given unto him."
