Print (Limited to 200 Copies) - NF (Gold Gilt on Red Boards) / No DJ as issued - "Book 1 is in form a gigantic Greek ode. It celebrates all the forces of nature and the children of time. Orpheus invokes them in turn; and they reply. Book II describes the winning of Eurydice by Orpheus. It is entirely a monologue by him. Book III describes the visit of Orpheus to Hades; and contains the invocations of the necessary deities, with their replies. book IV relates the death of Orpheus. Unwieldy as the poem is, it contains some of my best lyrics." The Confessions of Aleister Crowley. New York, NY. Hill and Wang,1969 Pages 223-224.
