    can anyone give me any input into this verse or point to any references? i've been racking my brain trying to understand this.
    i figure it must have something to do with "all is ever as it was" but can't put my fingeer on what is trying to be said here.

    93 craigp,

    Crowley had this to say in The Law is for All:

    ""The exposure of innocence." Exposure means "putting out" as in a shop-window. The pretence of altruism and so-called virtue "is a lie;" it is the hypocrisy of the Puritan, which is hideously corrupting both to the hypocrite and to his victim."

    read it in reference to the several sentences beforehand

    also

    define "exposure" and "innocence"

    If you were innocent, there would be nothing to expose 😄

    i understand now.
    i was reading it as someone exposing or revealing someone else's innocence and not as the display of one's own 'innocence'.
    thank you

    The Angel is making an ideological correction to his preceeding statements.
