Note 01.09.2007: Several of the offsite links are now dead. I currently have neither the time nor inclination to go through checking and fixing them all. — T.S.

Crowley's principal magical writings are referred to by numbers, usually given as Roman numerals, and mostly applied for Qabalistic reasons. Those of the following texts which officially pertain to the A∴A∴ are divided into five document classes (originally four; Class E was a later addition). They are described as follows:

CLASS A consists of books of which may be changed not so much as the style of a letter: that is, they represent the utterance of an Adept entirely beyond the criticism of even the Visible Head of the Organization.
CLASS B consists of books or essays which are the result of ordinary scholarship, enlightened and earnest.
CLASS C consists of matter which is to be regarded as rather as suggestive than anything else.
CLASS D consists of the official Rituals and Instructions.
Some publications are composite, and pertain to more than one class.

Class E, added circa 1919, was used for broadsides, manifestos, epistles, and rants.

Where a work has been cited in different classes at different times (e.g., Liber LXI, Liber B vel Magi, Liber Os Abysmi) the latest citation is used as the basis for its place in the "index by class." These variations are noted in the cumulative index.

A few O.T.O. papers have been listed as Class B on various occasions, mostly based on either extant correspondence from Crowley to C.S. Jones, or notes by Jones presumably based on correspondence from Crowley. Again, these are noted in the cumulative index; they are listed with other O.T.O. texts in the first section. The problem was, that Probationers of A∴A∴ were required to study Class B papers, but Libri 228, 24, 367 and 414 (prior to their publication) would only have been available to members of the appropriate O.T.O. degrees. The public O.T.O. papers Libri 101, 106 and 161 bore no A∴A∴ imprimatur on publication. One “secret” O.T.O. paper (Liber C) was listed in Class D in Equinox I (10) but it seems likely that this classification was later rescinded.

This page provides a – probably incomplete – list of these papers, giving details on publication where known and links to copies on Web sites, where I have been able to find them (there are a few exceptions on this score for reasons which will become apparent when you click on the links in question). A few of these have not been generally published to date; some are lost. The list also includes a few papers by other writers which were published in the Equinox volume I and were assigned numbers on publication or subsequently, as well as Liber 31 by C.S. Jones.

In general I have posted a link to the most complete or best formatted version of the text I could find (obviously in certain instances I am biassed). In a few instances, two copies have been linked to.

Reports of dead links and reccomendations of online resources not noted here should be set to the Nu Isis website crew.

Some text archives containing a large number of these include:
Baphonet on the Web. Massive selection of material, mostly in text or barely-formatted HTML. Also hosts an online catalogue of the OTO archives.
One Stop Libri shop. [Now back online. The mirror site below though appears not to exist at the moment, possibly Leaping Laughter Lodge need to renew their domain registration.]
Mirror of the above hosted by Leaping Laughter Lodge in Minneapolis. Both these are mostly text only.
The Equinox online. The whole of Vol. I, with offsite links to some of the issues of Vol. III. Includes most of the photographs: some figures and inline illustrations are included as scans, others are rendered in ASCII or as text descriptions. The level of formatting on the documents varies somewhat.

The Libri of Aleister Crowley at the Hermetic Library. Large collection, mostly HTML formatted and reasonably readable.

CD	Liber Tau. Copy linked to is a re-set PDF; the copy at Hermetic Library is rather a text description.
DLXX	Alternate citation for Liber DCCCXIII (Ararita).
DCCCXIII	Ararita

CLASS B
	The Book of Thoth. See Liber LXXVIII, infra.
	Eight Lectures on Yoga.
	Genesis Libri AL
	The Heart of the Master. This is a re-set PDF; HTML at Hermetic Library.
	Little Essays Toward Truth.
	One Star In Sight.
	Preliminary Analysis of Liber LXV. Unformatted text copy.
	The Temple of Solomon the King (by J.F.C. Fuller and Crowley). See the online Equinox, vol. I.
VI	Liber O vel Manus et Sagittæ. This copy has the figures and photographs of the signs, etc.

XXI	Khing Kang King, The Classic of Purity (versified by Crowley from Legge's translation)
XXX	Liber Librae (Golden Dawn material (adapted from Levi), further adapted by Crowley)
LVIII	An article on the Qabalah, sometimes cited as "An Essay on Number" or "Gematria." This is a 400K PDF; plaintext copy with Hebrew in letter-for-letter transliteration at One Stop Libri Shop.
LXIV	Liber Israfel (paraphrased by Allan Bennet from Egyptian texts, revised by Crowley)
LXXI	The Voice of the Silence (by H.P. Blavastky with commentary by Crowley). This HTML is an abomination, but the only other link to the version of this text with Crowley’s commentary I can post is to that embedded in a PDF of the Blue Equinox. Other online copies of Voice of the Silence such as the HTML at Hermetic Library are of the Theosopical Society edition and thus omit Crowley’s commentary, although they do contain Blavatsky’s notes which Crowley excised.
LXXVIII	A Description of the Cards of the Tarot (Golden Dawn material, slightly adapted by Crowley). This copy has a nice coloured version of the Ankh design.
LXXVIII	The Book of Thoth. See the main index by number, below, for the identification of this text as Liber LXXVIII. The copy previously linked to no longer exists. A reasonable HTML copy can be found here although this lacks several of the figures. Another one is here although it’s a bit of a mess (I have other issues with the site in question). Most online copies omit images of the cards owing to complications of the copyright laws regarding reproductions of artwork.
LXXXIV	Liber Chanokh (abstracted by Crowley from Golden Dawn material). This copy is a re-set PDF with all the figures redrawn and may take a long time to download over slower connections. The copy at Hermetic library renders the figures in ASCII or as text descriptions.
XCVI	Liber Gaias, a Handbook of Geomancy (Golden Dawn material, slightly adapted by Crowley to make it useless). This is a re-set PDF with all the figures and the Austin Spare illustrations; the HTML at Hermetic Library omits some of these and renders tables in ASCII but is a smaller download.
CXI	Liber Aleph, the Book of Wisdom or Folly. This copy is a PDF at the Crystal Heart Camp site, and is based on the corrected edition. Most other online copies run the last two chapters together; this one (at theonewolf.com, a Goethe site of all things) doesn’t, but is still riddled with errors.
CLVII	The Tao Teh King (adapted and commented by Crowley from Legge’s translation). HTML at Hermetic Library, omits Crowley’s commentary; the PDF previously linked is no longer online.
CLXV	A Master of the Temple (by C.S. Jones with comments by Crowley).
CCXVI	The Yi King (versified by Crowley from Legge's translation)
D	Sepher Sephiroth (originally by Allan Bennet; expanded by Crowley). This is a re-set PDF and thus a rather large download (520 K). Another copy, basically unformatted and rendering Hebrew in letter-for-letter transliteration, but thus a smaller file, is at the One Stop Libri Shop. A “revised edition” is at hermetics.org; this omits most of the front matter but corrects a number of errors in the Hebrew and includes additional entries (914K PDF).
DXXXVI	BATRAChOPhRENOBOOKOSMOMAChIA
DCCLXXII	777 vel Prolegomena Symbolica (etc — expanded by Crowley from Golden Dawn material). The copy linked to is a single 900K PDF with all the additional material from 777 Revised.

IV	Liber ABA – includes material from all five classes Part 1: Mysticism. Part 2: Magical theory. Part 3: Magick in Theory and Practice. Part 4: The Law (The Equinox of the Gods). These are HTMLs at Hermetic Library. While the title page suggests this edition of Book 4 is based on the one-volume “Blue Brick” edition, the contents are not; MTP is taken from the Castle Books edition with a few corrections by Bill Heidrick, parts 1 and 2 from the Sangreal edition (with some of the ommissions restored); part 4, as noted above, is incomplete.

CDXVIII	Liber XXX Ærum vel Sæculi, the Vision and the Voice – Class AB (includes Class D material). This copy also has some of Crowley's commentary (as endnotes to each Æthyr). Figures are given as text descriptions; the Alphabet of Daggers is omitted.
CMLXIII	The Treasure-House of Images – Classes A & B (by J.F.C. Fuller, edited / introduced by Crowley). Only the short prefatory note is in Class A. This copy is a 500K re-set PDF which includes both illustrations. The online Equinox includes an HTML version, basically a plaintext but still reasonably readable.

Cumulative index by number
(un-numbered works sorted alphabetically)
with description and notes on publication.

Bibliographical information is of necessity incomplete. A great many editions of Crowley material were published by small presses, rival O.T.O. and A∴A∴ claimants, people who had briefly known the Beast, and cynical commercial opportunists in the 1970s and early 80's. The more obscure of these are for the most part only listed if they contain the only known or most recent publication of a particular text or are otherwise deemed significant; those which merely reprint material from vol. 1 of the Equinox are generally omitted. Owing to long-running legal disputes around the ownership of the copyright on the works of Aleister Crowley, settled in 1985 in areas under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Federal courts and much later elsewhere, many of these texts have been published in “unauthorised” editions. This has not been deemed sufficient grounds for excluding any publication from the list below; it would in my opinion be dishonest to state that a paper was “unpublished” when it has in fact been published on multiple occasions, either prior to the aforementioned court rulings, or outside the jurisdiction of those courts. It is for this reason that I have cited, for example, the four numbers of Motta's Equinox plus the editions of Crowley material edited by Francis King.

For a more thorough bibliographical study of the works of Aleister Crowley, including essays and poems, see the Red Flame online Aleister Crowley Desk Reference.

	A passage in Liber CDXVIII, 18th Æthyr, probably (it is not clearly delimited, even in the edition in EQ IV (2)) from “Let there be a room furnished as for the Ritual of passing through the Tuat” to “lest they they that behold him be smitten by his glory unto death.” Gives instructions for invoking the 30 Æthyrs. Class D. Has not been published apart from Liber CDXVIII as a whole.
	The Book of Thoth. Being Equinox III (5). Crowley’ masterwork on the Tarot, with brilliant art by Frieda Harris. Class B. There is a good argument that this should be considered Liber LXXVIII, superceding the Golden Dawn instruction to which that number was originally applied. First published 1944 by the OTO; reprinted since by Samuel Weiser and still generally available.
	Eight Lectures on Yoga. Being Equinox III (4). Yoga stripped of dogmatic accretions, and lucidly explained. Class B. First published London: O.T.O., 1939; reprinted Dallas: Sangrael, 1970s (introduced by Israel Regardie); new edition Scottsdale, AZ: New Falcon, 1991 (edited by William Breeze).
	Emblems and Mode of Use. An O.T.O. IX° instruction, probably written circa 1940. As the title suggests, it discusses and describes practical application of certain alchemical emblems, particularly the egg and serpent. Versions published in Mezla magazine in 1985 and in O.T.O. Rituals and Sex Magick (Thame, Oxon: IHO, 1999) plus numerous small press and pirate editions (one apparently printed on a t-shirt!), most if not all of which are unfortunately corrupt or incomplete.
	The Equinox of the Gods. Being Equinox III (3); later declared to be part IV of Book 4. The Book of the Law with an account of its reception, a potted autobiography of Crowley, and the beginnings of a Qabalistic key to the Book. The book bears a Class E imprimatur, but AL itself is in Class A, and Genesis Libri AL, which forms the bulk of this work, is declared to be in Class B. Also included is a lengthy extract from Aha! which is in Class C. First published by the O.T.O. in 1936; reprinted in incomplete form by Gordon Press in the 1970s. A corrected reprint by New Falcon in 1992. The whole work was bound up in the 1994 and 1997 editions of Magick: Book 4 parts I-IV.
	Genesis Libri AL. See The Equinox of the Gods. Class B.
	Liber H. In Liber CLXXXV it is said that the Neophyte shall begin to study Liber H. I have seen no other references to this work and have no idea what it is, or whether it should be identified with some other extant text; it has been suggested it is the same as Liber HHH, since the practice of the latter work begins in the grade of Zelator. An alternative suggestion, that it is identical with a lost “Liber V,” (referred to the Path of Hé in Liber 868) is less plausible, since this Liber V (which cannot be Liber Reguli because of the dates involved) is also cited in Liber 185.
	The Heart of the Master. A lengthy visionary work from 1925. Class B. First published 1925 in a German translation; first English edition 1938; reprinted 93 publishing, 1973 with an introduction by Kenneth Grant. New edition with additional material, New Falcon, 1992.
	Little Essays Toward Truth. A collection of seventeen short essays on various aspects of mysticism, Qabala and Thelema. Class B. First published 1938; various reprints since, most recently New Falcon, 1996.
	Magick Without Tears. A series of letters from Crowley to various students, from the 1940s. First published 1954; reprinted, slightly shorn of waffle (edited by Israel Regardie), Llewellyn, 1973; this edition reissued with a new afterword by C.S. Hyatt, New Falcon, 1991.
	Liber Mysteriorum. Unknown. In Liber XIII and Liber CLXXXV it is stated that this text is given to the Dominus Liminis of A∴A∴; it has not been published AFAIK unless it is to be identified with some other extant text. The context in which this text is cited also suggests it may be identical with one or more of the Rituals Alpha, Beta and Gamma mentioned in Liber 671 vel TROA; i.e. it is concerned with the theory and practice of running a Magical Order. Would quite probably have been Class D.
	One Star in Sight. A description of the system of the A∴A∴. Classified B in EQ IV(1). First published as Appendix II to MTP; reprinted in Gems, EQ V (1) (Motta's Commentaries of AL) and IV (1).
	Preliminary Analysis of Liber LXV. A lengthy commentary on The Book of Heart Girt with Serpent; an extended ramble through the Desolate Land of Barren Words. Classified B in EQ IV (1). Published in the 1952 edition of Thelema, EQ V(2) and IV(1) and in various Thelemic magazines during the 1970s.
	The Temple of Solomon the King. A lengthy biog of Crowley’s occult adventures from 1898 to 1909. Three of the installments bore a Class B imprimatur, although the work as a whole was not listed in the 1913 “Syllabus.” Published over the course of Vol. I of the Equinox. Parts 1-4 were written by J.F.C. Fuller (based on Crowley’s diaries and G.D. notebooks), the rest by Crowley. A large quantity of Golden Dawn material was included in parts 2 and 3 (prompting a legal challenge by Mathers). Part 5, an article on the Qabalah (written as a filler after Crowley and Fuller broke up), became Liber LVIII in Class B. Part 6 was another filler, a short allegorical story entitled The Electric Silence. Part 7 was incorporated into Genesis Libri AL. A reprint of the whole series in one volume has been advertised for the past 10 years or so (possibly longer) by New Falcon (edited by L.M. DuQuette) but at the time of last checking (January 2004) has still not manifested.
I.	Liber B vel Magi. A description of the Grade of Magus. First published in EQ I (7) in Class B; reclassified A in the 1913 Syllabus; reprinted in Gems, MTP app VII and EQ III (9). Incorporated into The Master Therion: A biographical note (see below, s.v. “Liber DCLXVI: The Beast”). Brief commentary in EQ IV (1). 1 is the number of the Magus in the Tarot.
II.	The Message of the Master Therion. In which the Magus of the Æon proclaims his Law. Class E. First published as a pamphet circa 1916; reprinted in The International, February 1918, and in EQ III (1) and III (10), incorporated into the New Comment on Liber AL. 2 is the number of the sphere of Chokmah, to which the grade of Magus is assigned.
III.	Liber Jugorum. Three sets of practices for control of speech, actions and thoughts with the aid of a sharp instrument. Class D. First published in EQ I (4), reprinted in MTP and Gems. 3 “refers to the threefold method given, and to the Triangle as a binding force.” WARNING: Performing this in public may get you locked up, either under offensive weapon laws or the Mental Health Act.
IV.	Liber ABA. Crowley's masterwork, written over a period of some 24 years. In four parts. Part I deals with Yoga, part II with the symbolism of the magical instruments. Part III, Magick in Theory and Practice (hereafter cited as MTP) is sufficiently explained by the title. Part IV, ΘΕΛΗΜΑ—the Law was envisaged as The Book of the Law plus Crowley's final commentary on it; The Equinox of the Gods was designated such some time after publication (see Magick Without Tears, chapter LXXXI). Parts 1 and 2 first published 1912; part 3 first published 1930 (various reprints); part 4 first published 1936(as Equinox III (3)), reprinted with substantial omissions by Gordon Press in the 1970s, reprinted in a corrected edition by New Falcon in the 1990s. Parts I and II published together as Book 4 Dallas:Sangreal, 1969, with an introduction by Israel Regardie and some inexcusable omissions; reprinted Weiser, 1992 with some of the omissions restored. Parts I-III published in one volume as Magick in 1973 (various reprints), edited by Symonds and Grant; Parts I-IV published with additions as Magick: Book 4 Parts I-IV (hereafter cited as 4 (I-IV)) or “Blue Brick” in 1994 with a slightly revised edition in 1997 (edited by William Breeze). The 1994 edition bore an A∴A∴ imprimatur declaring it to be in “Classes A, B, D and E.” (it also includes extracts from “Aha!” (Class C)).
V.	Liber V vel Reguli, the Ritual of the Mark of the Beast. A revised and “Thelemised” Greater Pentagram. Class D. First published in MTP, with the diagrams (figures of pentagrams, etc.) missing. Reprinted in Gems, minus a long coke-fuelled essay / rant; printed in full, with the diagrams of the pentagrams, in 4 (I-IV) and DuQuette's Magick of Thelema. At least two earlier versions, with a measure of audience participation (one has four assistants for the quarters), exist. 5 obviously refers to the Pentagram. Regulus is a name for the star Cor Leonis in the constellation Leo, taken by the Golden Dawn to mark the start point of the Zodiac.
V.	Unknown. It is stated in Liber 185 (1909) that the Philosophus should “study and practise the meditations given in Liber V”; in Liber 868, “Liber V” is described as “The Formulation of the Flaming Star” and referred to the path of Heh.
VI.	Liber O vel Manus et Sagittæ. Instructions in the Pentagram and Hexagram rituals, Assumption of God-Forms, Astral Projection and Rising on the Planes, etc. Mostly abstracted from G.D. material. Class B. First published in EQ I(2), reprinted in MTP appendix VII, Gems and as a pamphlet in the 1970s bound up with Liber E. I am not sure why the number was given.
VII.	Liber Liberi vel Lapidis Lazuli, Adumbratio Kabbalæ Ægyptiorum. Being the voluntary Emancipation of a certain Exempt Adept from his Adeptship. These are the Birth-Words of a Master of the Temple. An account in poetic language of the grade of Master of the Temple. Class A. A “set text” for the A∴A∴ grade of Neophyte. First published as Volume II of the 1909 edition of Thelema; scheduled for publication in EQ III (2); published in The Holy Books (Sangreal, 1969) plus all the numerous re-issues, expanded editions, etc, of Thelema, including EQ III (9) (1983). A commentary published in Mezla I (4) (1974) and EQ IV (1) (1996). 7 refers, inter alia, to the number of chapters in the book.
VIII.	The Ritual Proper for the Invocation of Augoeides. This is a passage in the 8th Æthyr of The Vision and the Voice; it is not clearly delinated in the Equinox publication, but the obvious cut-off point would be from “And thus shall he do who will attain unto the mystery of the knowledge and conversation of his Holy Guardian Angel.” through to “... so that he shall come at last into the City of the Pyramids.” Class D. In Liber XIII it was declared to be the official ritual for the grade of Adeptus Minor. It was first printed apart from Liber CDXVIII in Equinox IV (1), which version ran from “The light is come to the darkness, and the darkness is made light” to “and in it he hath buried everything whereof ye know.” and added numbers to the paragraphs. 8 = Cheth, the letter of the Charioteer in the Tarot who represents the HGA in a certain sense.
IX.	Liber E vel Exercitiorum. Basic exercises and drill practices, including Asana, Pranayama, development of clairvoyance, etc. Class B. First published in EQ I (1), reprinted in MTP appendix VII, Gems and as a pamphlet bound up with Liber O in the 1970s. 9 is the number of Yesod, the Foundation; and these practices represent the basics and basis of the work.
X.	Liber Porta Lucis. “... an account of the sending forth of the Master by the A∴A∴, and an explanation of his mission.” Class A. First published in EQ I (6), reprinted in III (9) and Gems. 10 is the number of Malkuth, one of whose titles is “the Gate of Light.”
XI.	Liber N V. Magick and meditation practices predicated on the first chapter of Liber AL, for the purpose of invoking Nuit. Class D. Published in EQ I (7) and V (1), Gems and DuQuette's Magick of Thelema. 11 = the number of Magick according to Crowley, 5+6, and the reduction of 56, the number of Nu (NV in Hebrew).
XIII.	Graduum Montis Abiegni, a syllabus of Steps on the Path. A description of the grades of the Outer Order of the A∴A∴. Class D. First published in EQ I (3); reprinted in IV (1) and Gems. 13 = AChD, unity.
XV.	Ecclesiæ Gnosticæ Catholicæ Canon Missæ. The Gnostic Mass. While listed in the “Præmonstrance of A∴A∴” in the Blue Equinox, it is an official O.T.O. paper and has no A∴A∴ class. First published in The International, March 1918; reprinted in EQ III (1), III (10), MTP appendix VII, Gems, etc. All these are slightly different readings. 15 is the number of the Devil in the Tarot, also of IH (Hebrew), Yah. It is possible that neither of these has anything to do with the numbering of this paper.
XVI.	Liber Turris vel Domus Dei. A meditation practice based on the destruction of thoughts as they arise. First published in Class B, listed as D in the 1913 syllabus. First published in EQ I (6); reprinted in Gems. 16 is the number of “The Tower” in the Tarot, also called “The House of God.”
XVII.	Liber IAO. “Gives three methods of attainment by a series of willed thoughts. ... It is the active counterpart of Liber HHH. The article Energised Enthusiasm is an adumbration of this book.” Class D. Unpublished, possibly lost (a private communication a few years ago suggested it may survive in TS in a private collection but I have been unable to verify this; I hear occasional rumours of other documents purported to be this existing as ‘secret instructions’ within some A∴A∴ group or another). The three Enthusiasms are said (e.g. in the introduction to Liber HHH which contains their “watery reflections”) to be those of Apollo, Dionysus and Aphrodite (classically – for example in Plato's Phaedrus – there were four enthusiasms or “frenzies,” the other being that of the nine Muses). The reference to Energised Enthusiasm which does indeed treat, rather circumspectly, of those three “enthusiasms” has led some to suggest that IAO is concerned with some manner of “sex magic.” 17 = IAV (Yod-Aleph-Vau), a Hebrew spelling of IAO (itself from a Samaritan pronunciation of the Tetragrammaton IHVH). Agrippa in Occult Philosophy erroneously stated that these were the three “Mother Letters” of the Hebrew alphabet. The text The Book of Holy Kisses which has been suggested as being an “early draft” of Liber IAO (possibly on the grounds that it mentions the formula of IAO in passing) is a modern work, written by Frater Frater P.F.D.V., an American member of the O.T.O., and originally published in the magazine of William Blake Oasis.
XXI.	Khing Kang King, the Classic of Purity. By Ko Hsuen, versified by Crowley from Legge's translation (in The Texts of Taoism). A short Taoist writing. Class B. Scheduled for EQ III (2); first actually published 1939; reprinted some time in the 1970s and was appended to the 1995 edition of Crowley's rendition of the Tao Teh King. 21 = ZChV (Heb.), “purity,” amongst other things.
XXIV.	De Nuptiis Secretis Deorum cum Hominibus. An instruction of the VIII° O.T.O. Thoughts on the Eucharistic Mysteries and the formula of the Sacred Marriage under various aspects, including applications in Bhakti Yoga, evocation and talismanic magick. Class B according to notes by C.S. Jones (based on correspondence with Crowley). Published in Secret Rituals of the O.T.O. (C.W. Daniel, 1973) and O.T.O. Rituals and Sex Magick (IHO, 1999); the latter incorporates variant readings from a typescript sent to Achad; a later version exists but is unpublished. 24 = AHVBI (Heb.), “He whom I love” and AVHBY, “He who loves me.”
XXV.	The Star Ruby. A revision of the Lesser Pentagram. Class D. First published as Chapter 25 of The Book of Lies; a slightly different version in Appendix VI of MTP. A slightly garbled version in Gems. 25 is the square of 5.
XXV.	Unknown. There are allusions to a Liber XXV as being concerned with Mahasattipathana (a form of Buddhist meditation) in Liber RV and Liber Viarum Viae. It is implausible that this refers to the Star Ruby, although Frater O.B. once gave me an ingenious explanation of how it could; in any case, the dates involved are problematic.
XXVII.	Liber Trigrammaton, Being the book of the Triagrams of the Mutations of the Tao with the Yin and the Yang. “An account of the cosmic process: corresponding to the Stanzas of Dzyan in another system.” Class A. A “set text” for the A∴A∴ grade of Practicus. First published in volume III of Thelema; reprinted in subsequent editions of Thelema, EQ III (9); incorporated into the New Comment on Liber AL. 27 = 3³, and thus the number of permutations of three things taken three at a time.
XXVIII.	Liber Septem Regum Sanctorum, the Ceremony of the Seven Holy Kings. An A∴A∴ ritual to which “selected Probationers.” were to be admitted (as far as can be told, they were “selected” for slacking). Class D. The only publication of which I am aware is in a limited edition in 2003, on the imprint “Nuit / Hadit,” bound up with the Ritual of Passing through the Tuat (see below, CXX). Transcripts of uncertain provenance occasionally see webposting. 28 = 7 × 4, 4 being the number of Jupiter, also 1+2+3+4+5+6+7; also KCh (Heb.), power.
XXX.	Liber Libræ. “A course in morality suitable for the average man.” A slight revision of a Golden Dawn document, “General Guidance and Purification of the Soul” (itself adapted from scattered passages in Levi's Dogme et Rituel). Class B. Published in EQ I (1) and III (10), also Gems. 30 = L, the letter of Libra, the Balances.
XXXI.	AL (Liber Legis), the Book of the Law, as delivered by [OIVZ] – XCIII = 418 – [Aifass] to Ankh-af-na-Khonsu, the Priest of the Princes who is To Mega Thérion – 666 – [ThRIVN]. Refers to the manuscript of the Book of the Law, or facsimiles thereof. Class A. First published in Equinox I (7), reduced to the point of unreadability. This full title first used in a 1926 publication limited to 11 copies; a slightly shortened form of the title, omitting the Hebrew and Greek for Aiwaz and Therion, used in Equinox of the Gods (the third publication). Subsequent publications too numerous to list. 31 = AL, God; LA, not; the sum of the Tarot keys of Aum Ha (not counting the Heh-Tzaddi reversal) etc., etc.
XXXI.	Liber 31. Excerpts from the magical diaries of Charles Stansfeld Jones (Frater Achad) concerning the Book of the Law and its Qabalistic interpretation; in which the number 31 is revealed to be “the Key of it all.” The only commentary on Liber AL by anyone else which Crowley acknowledged. Published in various editions, the most recent by Luxor Press, edited by Allen Greenfield. For 31 see above.
XXXIII.	An Account of A∴A∴. An excerpt from Eckartshausen's The Cloud Upon the Sanctuary, describing the eternal and inner Church^H^H^H^H^H^HOrder, with all the Christian references deleted or altered. Class C. In EQ I(1), IV (1) and Gems. Number assigned for “Masonic reasons.”
XXXVI.	The Star Sapphire. A revised Hexagram ritual. Class D. First published as Chapter 36 of The Book of Lies, reprinted in Appendix VI of MTP, in Gems, etc. Owing to certain ambiguities of language used, this ritual is susceptible to a variety of interpretations. It is generally believed that this is the chapter referred to by Crowley in his story of the Reuss / Book of Lies incident which supposedly led to Reuss appointing him as X° O.T.O. 36 is the square of 6.
XLI.	Thien Tao. An essay on the method of Equilibrium, disguised as a political satire. Class C. First published in Konx Om Pax; reprinted in The Chinese Texts of Magick and Mysticism, Motta's Equinox V (3).
XLIV.	The Mass of the Phoenix. A short “eucharist of five elements.” Class D. First published as Chapter 44 of The Book of Lies, reprinted in Appendix VI of MPT, Gems, etc. 44 is the number of Horus according to Crowley, also Hebrew DM, blood (also the Tarot keys of Aum Ha if you accept the Heh-Tzaddi reversal).
XLVI.	The Key of the Mysteries. By Eliphas Levi, translated by Crowley. One of Levi's less readily comprehensible works on Magic, the Kabbalah, etc. Crowley claimed to be the reincarnation of Levi and asserted that this was his (Crowley's – Crowley claimed Levi was only a 6°=5° Adeptus Major) thesis for the grade of 7°=4° Exempt Adept. First published in EQ I (10) and reprinted on its own by Rider (1959, since reprinted). 46 = LVI (Hebrew), Levi.
XLIX.	Shi Yi Chien. Apparently proposed as a divinatory scheme of 128 figures of 7 elements, akin to I Ching or Geomancy. Not believed extant; possibly not worked out in full. Confusingly, when Crowley's rendering of the I Ching was published in 1971 it bore the title Shi Yi. 49 = 7 squared.
LI.	The Lost Continent. A political satire and / or mystic treatise and / or deliberately obscure account of the O.T.O. system of sexual magick, under the guise of an account of Atlantis. Owes more than a little to Bulwer-Lytton's The Coming Race. Published Malton, Ontario: Dove Press, 1970, and in other small and obscure editions since. 51 = ADVM (Heb.), Edom, also AN, a Hebrew spelling of the Egyptian city known as Heliopolis.
LII.	Manifesto of the O.T.O. Attributed to L. Bathurst (Leila Waddell). Published in EQ III (1); reprinted in III (10). This document is itself a very slight revision of the 1912 Manifesto of MMM, published by Crowley through the O.T.O. 52 = J.B.M., initials of Jacobus Burgundis Molensis (and also of the passwords of the three grades of Craft Masonry).
LV.	The Chymical Jousting of Brother Perardua. A short pseudo-Alchemical allegorical writing with a coloured illustration. The illustration is by J.F.C. Fuller (Frater Per Ardua); the text was attributed to Fuller by Regardie, who felt it “said nothing,” and so left it out of Gems but the Index to Equinox vol I ascribes the text to Crowley. Class C. Published in EQ I (1). 55 is the “Mystic number” of Malkuth (the sum of 1 to 10) and NH (Hebrew), an ornament.
LVIII.	An article on the Qabala which formed part V of The Temple of Solomon the King. Class B. First published in EQ I (5), reprinted in The Qabalah of Aleister Crowley under the misleading title “Gematria” and on its own as “An Essay on Number” by Sure Fire Press (unsure of date). 58 = ChN (Hebrew), “Grace,” a Notariqon of Chokmah Nestorah, “the Secret Wisdom,” a title of the Qabala.
LIX.	Across the Gulf. A purported account by Crowley of his memory of a previous incarnation as a priest in ancient Egypt. Class C. Published in EQ I (7).
LX.	The Abuldiz Working. An account of communications with a discarnate entity through the mediumship of Mary D'Este (Soror Virakam). Class C. First published in EQ IV (2), although a lengthy account of the working had been given by Symonds in Magic of Aleister Crowley and Symonds and Grant had planned to include it in their abortive edition of The Paris and Amalantrah Workings. Classification and numbering supplied by the A∴A∴ lineage responsible for the publication. 60 = ABVLDIZ (Heb.),Abuldiz.
LXI.	Liber Causæ: the Preliminary Lection including the History Lection. Crowley's account of the history of the Golden Dawn and the founding of the A∴A∴. First published in Class A in vol I of Thelema; listed Class B in the 1913 Syllabus; published in Class D in EQ III (1); reprinted in EQ III (9), Gems and elsewhere. 61 = AIN (Heb, refers to the Qabalistic Zero); “The allusion is to the fact that this book forms an introduction to the series [of 'Holy Books'].”
LXIV.	Liber Israfel, formerly called “Anubis.” An invocation of Thoth, originally written by Allan Bennet, based on Egyptian texts, and revised by Crowley. Described as “an instruction in a suitable method of preaching.” Class B. First published in EQ I (7); reprinted in Gems. 64 is the second number of Mercury or Thoth.
LXV.	Liber Cordis Cincti Serpente sub figura ADNI. An account in poetic language of the relations of the soul and Holy Guardian Angel. Class A. While much of it is (IMO) entirely personal to Crowley, from a purely aesthetic point of view I consider it the most inspired of the Class A corpus. A “set text” for the A∴A∴ grade of Probationer. First published in volume I of Thelema; reprinted in EQ III (1), III (9), V (2) and IV (1) (with commentary in the latter two), The Holy Books and all later editions of Thelema. A lengthy commentary written under the title Preliminary Analysis of Liber LXV. 65 = ADNI (Hebrew), Adonai.
LXVI.	Liber Stellae Rubeæ. “A secret ritual, the heart of IAO-OAI, delivered unto V.V.V.V.V. for his use in a certain matter of Liber Legis.” Class A. First published in EQ I (7); reprinted in III (9) and Gems. Brief commentary in EQ IV (1). 66 is the sum of the numbers from 1 to 11, 11 being the number of Magick according to Crowley. The Ritual of the Star of Ruby should not be confused with the ritual of the Star Ruby (Liber XXV); the former is accomplished in Silence which the latter quite definitely is not.
LXVII.	The Sword of Song. Two lengthy poems with even more lengthy notes, plus two essays, “Berashith” and “Science and Buddhism.” Class C. First published 1904, reprinted in volume II of Crowley's Collected Works. 67 = ZIN (Heb.), Zayin, a sword (also BINH (Heb.), Understanding, the third Sephirah).
LXX.	Stauros Batrachou. “Being the Ceremonies proper to the obtaining of a Familiar Spirit of a Mercurial nature, as described in the Apocalypse of St. John the Divine from a frog or a toad.” A short ritual devised by Crowley to ratify his assumption of the grade of Magus. If interpreted literally it involves some cruelty to defenceless small animals. Class C according to Yorke, Class D according to 4 (I-IV) (based on correspondence between Crowley and C.S. Jones). A note on the MS also refers it to the VI° of O.T.O. First published (with an abbreviated version of the title and a few other minor omissions) by Symonds in The Great Beast (1973); scheduled for publication in EQ IV (3). Facsimile MS in How to make your own McOTO.
LXXI.	The Voice of the Silence, the Two Paths, the Seven Portals. A short Theosophical work by Blavatsky (purporting to be a translation of an ancient Tibetan Buddhist text) with a detailed commentary by Crowley. Class B. First published in EQ III (1), reprinted in Gems and EQIV (1). 71 = LAM, “the Way.”
LXXIII.	The Urn. “This is the sequel to The Temple of Solomon the King, and is the Diary of a Magus.” Specifically, Crowley’s diary of his Magus initiation 1915-16. Unpublished (scheduled for EQ IV (3)), although it was used as the basis for part of Book 5 of Crowley’s Confessions. It had at one point been intended for inclusion in Equinox IV (2) but was held over; a PDF of a draft version from this planned publication has been in Internet circulation a kind for some years. There is also a citation for a Liber LXXIII in Liber Viarum Viæ, described as “The supreme Ecstasy of Purity” and referred to the Path of Gimel, which cannot (because of the dates involved) refer to this. 73 = GML (Heb.), Gimel spelt in full, and ChKMH, Chokmah.
LXXIV.	Liber Testis Testudinis vel [Daleth Ayin]. Appears to be a further account of the grade of Magus in the A∴A∴. It had been lost for some time, is not (AFAIK) cited anywhere else in Crowley's published writings; Yorke was not aware of it; and it first saw print in the 1997 second edition of 4 (I-IV). 74 = DO (Heb.), Dea, “knowledge, wisdom” (root of Da'ath).
LXXVII.	Liber Oz. Crowley's infamous “declaration of rights” in words of one syllable (with the exception of some of the quotes from Liber AL which were later additions). Derives from O.T.O. material written circa 1914. First published by the O.T.O. in the 1940s as a card; various editions, some bearing photographs of Crowley's ugly mug, some with one or another of Frieda Harris' Tarot designs on one face. Subsequent publications too numerous to list. 77 = OZ (Heb.), “strength” or “a she-goat.”
LXXVIII.	This number was assigned in the 1913 “Syllabus” to A Description of the Cards of the Tarot, comprising two of the Golden Dawn Tarot papers (the description of the cards, and divination by “Opening of the Key”) with a few minor changes by Crowley, published in Equinox I (8) and reprinted as Tarot Divination by Weiser and said in the 1913 “Syllabus” to be in Class B. In the list of forthcoming and projected works in the 1919 “Præmonstrance of A∴A∴” there appears under this number, “A complete treatise on the Tarot, giving the correct designs of the cards with their attributions and symbolic meanings on all planes.” In the “Curriculum” in the same number of the Equinox, the “Description” was again cited as Liber LXXVIII in Course III. Now, a MS. note by Crowley in a copy of Equinox I (5) (against a reference in the editorial to a “tremendous volume on the Tarot”) fairly clearly indicates The Book of Thoth and the accompanying card designs as superseding the “Description” (described as “the skeleton of this work”); from this, H.B. in a note to IV (1-4) argues that these should further be considered the final form of Liber LXXVIII, although like the “Description” they bore no such designation on first publication. The Book of Thoth is described under its title at the head of this list. 78 is the number of cards in the Tarot deck.
LXXXI.	The Butterfly Net. A description of the Liber 367 homunculus operation under the guise of a trashy novel. Published as Moonchild (Mandrake, 1929; reprinted Sphere Books (1972) with an introduction and notes by Kenneth Grant; facsimile of original published by Weiser). 81 is the second number of the Moon.
LXXXIV.	Liber Chanokh. “A Brief Abstract of the Symbolic Representation of the Universe as derived by Dr. John Dee from the Skrying of Sir Edward Kelly.” A terse abstract of part of the Golden Dawn Enochian system, with additional material from the “Sigillum Dei Aemeth” and “Liber Scientiæ, Auxillæ, et Victoriæ Terrestris.” Class B. Some uncredited work on this was done by James T. Windram (Frater Semper Paratus). Published in two parts in EQ I (7-8); reprinted in Gems and Enochian World of Aleister Crowley (alias Enochian Sex Magick) by Hyatt and DuQuette (New Falcon, 1990). 84 = ChNVK (Heb.), Chanokh (anglicised as Enoch). Sometimes erroneously cited as Liber LXXXIX (following its appearance in Gems under this number). A continuation was planned but never written.
XC.	Liber Tzaddi vel Hamus Hermeticus. “An account of Initiation, and an indication of those who are suitable for the same.” Class A. Published in Equinox I (6), reprinted in III (9), Gems and elsewhere. 90 is the number of Tzaddi, “a fish-hook.”
XCIII.	Liber TzBA vel Niké, the Fountain of Hyacinth. A record of an unsuccessful attempt by Crowley to get off heroin in 1922. Published as Liber Tzaba by Ieujema Press, 1990s. 93 = TzBA (Heb.), Tzaba, a Host (also Aramaic for “to will”), plus ‘ε Νικη (refers to the city of Nice, where Crowley was staying at the time), plus many other things. Sometimes cited as Liber XXVIII.
XCV.	The Wake World, a tale for babes and sucklings. An account of the progress of the soul up the Tree of Life, and of relations with the Holy Guardian Angel, under the guise of a fairy tale. Class C. Published in Konx Om Pax; reprinted in Sex and Religion (Motta's Equinox V (4)). 95 = MLKH (Heb.), Malkha, the Queen.
XCVI.	Liber Gaias, a Handbook of Geomancy. Golden Dawn material, subtly altered by Crowley to make it unusable. Includes two illustrations by Austin Spare. Class B. Published in EQ I (2), reprinted by Sure Fire Press (1980s). 96 = the total number of points in the 16 figures of Geomancy.
XCVII.	Soror Achitha's Vision. Soror Achitha was Roddie Minor, skryer on the Amalantrah working and Scarlet Woman circa 1917-1918. This document has not been published and is possibly lost, unless it is identical with Liber 729, the Amalantrah Working. It is referenced in one of Crowley’s diaries in connection with a Magical Retirement in 1918 e.v., and a short excerpt was incorporated into the New Comment on The Book of the Law (III:55). The surviving copies of the Amalantrah Working do not include that passage, but a portion of the record for this working is missing from all the surviving typescripts (the original MS is lost), so the identification remains an open question.
C.	Liber KAPH, Agapé Azoth sal Philosophorum, the Book of the Unveiling of the Sangraal. Or Liber Agape for short. An instruction of the IX° O.T.O.; includes thoughts on the secret of Freemasonry, the symbolism of the Holy Trinity, the mystery of the Eucharist and the practical application thereof. Cited as Class D in the 1913 Syllabus (with the comment “This book has not been, and at present will not be, published”) but this classification seems to have been rescinded when Reuss rapped Crowley over the knuckles and told him to keep the A∴A∴ and O.T.O. separate. Said to be “unpublished” in the 1997 Blue Brick. Published in Secret Rituals of the O.T.O. (1973), and by Kadath Press in 1986, bound up with De Arte Magica. Facsimile of MS (with a few illustrations, but also some major omissions) in How to Make Your Own McOTO, ARW München, 1996. Another version in O.T.O. Rituals and Sex Magick (1999). 100 = KP (Heb.), Kaph spelt in full, and “the initials of the magical instruments referred to in the text” (Φ—κ that for a laugh).
CI.	O.T.O. an Open Letter to those who may wish to join the Order. Outlining the supposed benefits and obligations of membership. Class B according to notes by C.S. Jones (based on correspondence with Crowley) but the work pertians solely to O.T.O. First distributed as a pamphlet circa 1916; reprinted in EQ III (1) and III (10). For 101, Liber D gives MLVKH, “Kingdom; a virgin princess; esp THE Virgin Princess, i.e. Ecclesia.” Note: Much of Liber 101 does not form current OTO policy: see the Memorandum on Liber 101 by the U.S. Grand Master.
CVI.	Concerning Death. Suggestions for what might be termed Thelemic “last rites.” Class B according to notes by C.S. Jones (based on correspondence with Crowley), but, while it was listed in the “Præmonstrance of A∴A∴” in the Blue Equinox, on internal evidence the work pertains to O.T.O. (it is headed “An Epistle of Baphomet”). First published in The International, December 1917; reprinted in EQ III (10). 106 = NVN (Hebrew), the letter Nun (to which the Tarot card Death is attributed) spelt in full.
CXI.	Liber Aleph, the Book of Wisdom or Folly. A series of 208 short pieces of writing on a variety of subjects including magick, mysticism, sex, drugs, and The Book of the Law, addressed by Crowley to C.S. Jones whom at the time (circa 1916-17) he believed to be his Magical Son. Class B. First published as Equinox III (6), 1961; reprinted by Level Press in the 1970s and Weiser, 1991. 111 = ALP (Heb.), Aleph in full.
CXX.	Liber Cadaveris, the Ritual of Passing Through the Tuat. The A∴A∴ ritual for the grade of Zelator. Class D. Unpublished in its worked-up form (which survives in one of Crowley's notebooks) but a rather impractical early draft from another MS. notebook has been posted on the Internet and published as a facsimile manuscript in How to Make Your Own McOTO (and again, with a transcript and commentary, in a limited edition in 2003 on the imprint “Nuit / Hadit” bound up with Liber XXVIII and the Constitution of the Order of Thelemites. Number assigned for reasons of “Rosicrucian symbolism.”
CXXIV.	Of Eden and the Sacred Oak. An O.T.O. paper, concerning the running of “profess-houses” of the Order. Lost for some time and so not mentioned by Yorke. Published in The Magical Link, O.T.O.'s internal magazine. 124 = ODN (Heb.), Eden and ChVSN (Heb.), an oak.
CXXXII.	Liber Apotheosis. Part of a cunning plan to remove W.T. Smith from leadership of the Californian O.T.O. lodge in the 1940s. Crowley claimed, from the study of Smith's horoscope, that he was potentially an incarnate god and should go on a Magical Retirement to realise his divinity, leaving someone else to take over the lodge; Liber Apotheosis contains the theory of all this and instructions for how he should do it. Publish in The Unknown God, a study of W.T. Smith and the Californian Thelemic groups by Martin Starr. 132 = V.O.V.N., the initials of one of Smith's mottos (Velle Omnia Velle Nihil; “to will everything, to will nothing”).
CXLVIII.	The Soldier and the Hunchback, ! and ? An essay on mysticism and scepticism. Class C. First published in EQ I (1), reprinted as a pamphlet in the 1970s by Unicorn Press of Seattle. 148 = MAZNYM (Heb.), Moznaim, Balances.
CL.	Liber CL vel NOL, A Sandal, De Lege Libellum. A lengthy essay on the Law of Thelema. Class E. First published in EQ III (1), reprinted in III (10) and Gems. 150 = NOL (Heb.), also L—L—L—L—L, referring to the alliterative formula “the Law of Life, Light, Love and Liberty.”
CLVI.	Liber Cheth vel Vallum Abiegni. An account in symbolic language of the Ordeal of the Abyss. Class A. It has been suggested that it has a sex-magical interpretation. First published in EQ I (6), reprinted in III (9), MTP appendix VII, Gems, and elsewhere. 156 = BABALON.
CLVII.	The Tao Teh King. Crowley's rendition of the Taoist classic, not a new translation as sometimes claimed but a paraphrase with commentary of Legge's version. Published as EQ III (8) and Aleister Crowley's Tao Teh King, edited by Steven Skinner (Askin, 1976). Also published in Motta's Equinox V (3). This text has the alternate enumeration of LXXXI which refers to the number of chapters. Class B. For 157, Liber D gives, inter alia, ZQN, glossed “beard, lingam” and NQBH, glossed “female, yoni.&rduqo;
CLXI.	O.T.O. Concerning the Law of Thelema. An essay on Thelema in the context of the organisation of the O.T.O. Signed “J.B. Mason.” Class B according to notes by C.S. Jones (based on correspondence with Crowley), but on publication the work bore solely an O.T.O. imprimatur. First published in EQ III (1), reprinted in III (10).
CLXV.	A Master of the Temple. The early magical diaries of C.S. Jones, with comments by Crowley. Class B. Part published in EQ III (1); a continuation scheduled for III (2). The published part reprinted in Gems and Aleister Crowley and the Practice of the Magical Diary. 165 = Nemo (Greek), the symbolic name of a Master of the Temple.
CLXXV.	Astarte vel Liber Berylli. Instruction in Bhakti-Yoga, union by devotion to a particular deity. Class B on first publication, Class D in the 1913 Syllabus. First published EQ I (7), reprinted in MTP appendix VII and Gems. 175 is the third number of Venus.
CLXXXV.	Liber Collegii Sancti. Comprises the Tasks and Oaths of the A∴A∴ grades from Probationer to Adeptus Minor. Class D. Privately printed as a set of fourteen looseleaf sheets circa 1909; scheduled for EQ III (2); first generally published in Gems, and again in EQ IV (1).
CLXXXVI.	Liber Qoph, Gnosticorum Missa Minor. The “Lesser Mass of the Gnostics.” An O.T.O. IX° ritual. What appears to be a somewhat corrupted version published in O.T.O. Rituals and Sex Magick. 186 = QVP (Hebrew), Qoph spelt in full; the reference is to the Moon card in the Tarot, “Ruler of Flux and Reflux.” To quote Kenneth Grant (The Magical Revival), “This expression refers, not to the celestial phenomenon, but to the physiological moon, the menstrual flux.”
CXCIV.	O.T.O. An Intimation with Reference to the Constitution of the Order. The title should be self-explanatory. Adapted from an address read to the candidate in one of the initiation rituals. First published in EQ III (1), reprinted in III (10). 194 = TzDQ, Tzedeq, Righteousness. This may or may not have anything to do with the enumeration of this paper.
CXCVII.	The High History of Good Sir Palamedes the Saracen Knight and his following of the Questing Beast. An epic poem, supposedly an allegory about the Great Work and the obstacles to be faced on the way. Needless to say most of it is personal to Crowley. Class C. Published in EQ I (4), and re-issued on its own in 1913. 197 allegedly = Ζοον, “Living creature, beast" however this is more usually spelt Ζωον, 927.
CC.	Liber Resh vel Helios. A series of four daily adorations of the Sun. Class D. First published EQ I (6), reprinted in MTP Appendix VII, Gems and elsewhere. 200 is the number of Resh, the letter of the Sun in the Tarot. WARNING: doing Resh as instructed (a) fucks up your sleep-cycle big time, especially in the summer and (b) may involve making a fool of yourself in public.
CCVI.	Liber RU vel Spiritus. Advanced instructions in Pranayama (breath control). Some of the advice given may be dangerous. Class B on first publication, Class D in the 1913 Syllabus. First published in EQ I (7); reprinted in Gems and MTP. 206 = RV (Hebrew), root of Ruach, breath.
CCVII.	A Syllabus of the Official Instructions of the A∴A∴. “An enumeration of the Official Publications of the A∴A∴ with a brief description of the contents of each book.” Sorted by document class. First published in EQ I (10) with the misleading title A Syllabus of the Official Instructions of the A∴A∴ hitherto published (it listed seven then unpublished papers, the majority of which are still unpublished). Reprinted in Gems. Probably belongs in Class D, but had no classification on first publication. An updated version in IV (1-4), with the list by class giving only title and a second list, by number, giving descriptions and publication details. The present technical bibliography is a further expansion, but includes non-A∴A∴ papers. 207 = AVR (Heb.), Aur, light, perhaps.
CCXVI.	The Yi King. Crowley's rendition of the Book of Changes, with a verse description of each hexagram. Not a new translation but adapted from Legge's. Class B according to some sources. Crowley's method of forming the hexagrams appears to be of his own devising, and while it speeds up the process means that one “changing” line will be formed every time, rather than the 0-6 generated by the traditional methods. Various editions of Crowley's versification of the hexagrams have been published, e.g. as EQ III (7) and in Motta's Equinox V (3), but the commentaries were never completed and put into order, although many are still extant. 216 = 6 x 6 x 6.
CCXX.	Liber AL vel Legis, the Book of the Law. “This book is the foundation of the New Æon, and thus of the whole of our work.” Class A. This number refers to typeset versions, with Chapter I given verse numbers (there is no numbering in the MS of the first chapter). First published in volume III of Thelema (with many errors, having been prepared from an inaccurate typescript). A corrected version published in EQ I (10). Reprinted in The Equinox of the Gods and as The Book of the Law (1938) with the addition of the short comment beginning “The study of this Book is forbidden...” Subsequent reprints too numerous to list. 220 is the total number of verses in the book.
CCXXVIII.	De Natura Deorum. An instruction of the VII° O.T.O.; a study in Comparative Religion in which Crowley expounds in detail on the “Solar Phallic” theory. Class B according to notes by C.S. Jones (based on correspondence with Crowley). Published in Secret Rituals of the O.T.O. and O.T.O. Rituals and Sex Magick. 228 = BRVK (Heb.), Barukh, Blessed, ALHI IOQB, Eloi Yaqob, the God of Jacob (see Genesis XXVIII), OTz ChIIM, Otz Chayyim, the Tree of Life; also Greek Ναρθηξ, the hollow tube in which Prometheus brought down fire from heaven (actually a plant with a hollow pithy stalk, which was also used for the thyrsos or Bacchanalian wand), etc.
CCXXXI.	Liber Arcanorum των ATU του TAHUTI Quas Vidit Asar in Amenti. Liber Carcerorum των Qliphoth cum suis Geniis. Adduntur Sigilla et Nomina Eorum. (approx: The Book of the secrets of the Atus of Tahuti (the Tarot trumps) which Asar (Osiris) saw in Amenti (the Egpytian Underworld). The book of the Cells of the Qlippoth and their Intelligences (to which) their sigils and names are added.) “An account of the cosmic process so far as it is indicated by the Tarot Trumps.” Class A. The two sets of 22 sigils have been a source of much speculation; an extreme case is Kenneth Grant's Nightside of Eden. First published in EQ I (7), reprinted in EQ V (2) and III (9) Gems and elsewhere. 231 is the sum of the numbers (0-21) printed on the Tarot Trumps.
CCXLII.	Aha! A lengthy poem in the form of a dialogue, concerning Yoga, magical attainment and The Book of the Law. Class C. First published in EQ I (3); reprinted with an introduction by Israel Regardie, Sangraal 1969, New Falcon 1987; new edition with commentary by C.S. Jones: New Falcon, 1996. 242 supposedly is the number of “Aha” “spelt in full” although this would normally be ALP HH ALP = 232, evidently there is a concealed yod somewhere in there.
CCLXV.	The Structure of the Mind. “A treatise on psychology from the mystic and magical standpoint.” Never written; some working notes and a rough draft survive in Crowley's diaries from the Amalantrah Working period and have seen publication in the Magical Link.
CCC.	Khabs Am Pekht. Another ramble on the Law of Thelema, in the form of an epistle from Crowley to his “magical son” C.S. Jones. Class E. First published EQ III (1); reprinted in III (10) and Gems.
CCCXXV.	The Bartzabel Working. The script and record of an evocation of the Spirit of Mars. Class C. The script only published in EQ I (9) as “An evocation of Bartzabel the Spirit of Mars”; the whole published in EQ IV (2). Number and classification assigned by the A∴A∴ group who published it. 325 = BRTzBAL (Heb.), and the fourth number of Mars.
CCCXXXIII.	The Book of Lies, Falsely So-called. A series of short pieces of gibberish, paradoxes and assaults on reason. The volume as a whole is in Class C; three chapters (cited above as Libri XXV, XXXVI and XLIV) are Class D. An official publication for the grade of Babe of the Abyss, but was moved down the syllabus to the grade of Zelator when Crowley realised just how few aspirants were likely to get anywhere remotely near the former grade (one modern A∴A∴ group has moved it down further still, to the Student reading list). First published 1912 or 1913 — “there is no joke or hidden meaning in the publisher's imprint.”) 333 = ChVRVNZVN (Heb.), Crowley's Hebrew spelling of Coronzon, the “mighty devil” of the Dee-Kelly workings who is said to inhabit the Abyss.
CCCXXXV.	Adonis. A play, giving “an account in poetic language of the struggle of the human and divine elements in the consciousness of man, giving their harmony following upon the victory of the latter.” Class C. First published in EQ I (7), reprinted in The Giant's Thumb. 335 = Αδονις.
CCCXLI.	Liber HHH. A series of three meditation practices, two of them based on rituals 671 and 120, the third adapted from the Yoga teachings of Sri Sabhapaty Swami. Class D. Published in EQ I (5), Gems and MTP appendix VII; also as a booklet in the 1970s, bound up with Crowley's essay The Dangers of Mysticism. 341 is the sum of the three “Mother letters,” Aleph, Mem and Shin.
CCCXLIII.	Amrita, the Elixir of Life. I don't know which paper this citation refers to. A collection of Crowley's writings on said alleged Elixir was published by Thelema Publications in California circa 1990 under the title Amrita, edited by Martin Starr (now out of print). Some but not all of these were included in O.T.O. Rituals and Sex Magick (Thame, Oxfordshire: IHO, 1999). The paper usually posted on the Internet under this number is an essay from 1920 which was published in The Magical Record of the Beast 666 and appears in both published editions. I do not know the reason for the enumeration, although Sepher Sephiroth gives ZPRVN (Heb.), defined as “a sweet smell;” compare the “sweet-smelling perfume of sweat” of AL I, 27. Also, 343 was the number of the Masonic Lodge in Paris where Crowley took the Craft Degrees in 1904 (an English-speaking “Anglo-Saxon” lodge under the Grande Loge de France).
CCCLXVII.	De Homunculo. An O.T.O. instruction, said to pertain to the X°. Contains a discussion of Alchemical theories on the creations of homunculi, and a ritual supposedly designed to bring about the incarnation in a human body of a planetary or elemental spirit. Said to be Class B by Crowley in correspondence with C.S. Jones. Published in Secret Rituals of the O.T.O. and O.T.O. Rituals and Sex Magick; facsimile of manuscript in How to Make Your Own McOTO. 367 = AIShVN (Heb.), defined in Liber D as “Black [scil. of eye-pupil]: middle: homunculus.” This document formed the basis for the plot of Moonchild (Liber LXXXI) and is quoted at length in the introduction to the Kenneth Grant edition (Sphere, 1972, 1974).
CCCLXX.	Liber A'ash vel Capricorni Pneumatici. “Contains the true secret of all practical magick.” Class A. First published in EQ I (6), reprinted in III (9), Gems and MTP appendix VII. Commentaries by Crowley and C.S. Jones in EQ IV (1). 370 = OSh (Heb.), A'ash said by Crowley to mean “Creation” (the word also refers, as it happens, to the constellation of the Great Bear, traditionally referred to Set-Typhon).
CD.	Liber Tau vel Kabbalæ Trium Literatum. “A graphic interpretation of the Tarot on the plane of initiation.” An attempt to analyse the Hebrew alphabet into seven groups of three, grouped under a single large Tau. Class A. First published in EQ I (7), reprinted in III (9) and Gems. 400 = is the number of Tau.
CDXII.	Liber A vel Armorum. Instructions for preparing the five Elemental Weapons appropriate to the grades of the First Order. Class D. First published in EQ I (4), reprinted in MTP appendix VII and Gems. 412 = BITh (Heb.), Beth in full, being the letter of the Magus in the Tarot whose weapons are described therein.
CDXIV.	De Arte Magica, secundum ritum Gradus Nonæ O.T.O. Baphometi Epistola anno belli universalis ne perdat arcanum scripta. A commentary on the O.T.O. system of magick, written in 1914. Said to be Class B by Crowley in correspondence with C.S. Jones. Published as an appendix to Crowley on Christ, edited by Francis King (C.W. Daniel, 1974), by Level Press in California and Neptune Press in England as a pamphlet circa 1976 (introduced by Gerald Yorke, with material not in King's edition), bound up with Liber Agape by Kadath Press in 1986 (edited by Ray Sherwin), as a pamphlet (pirated from Crowley on Christ) by Sure Fire Press in 1988, in Portable Darkness: An Aleister Crowley Reader in 1989 and in O.T.O. Rituals and Sex Magick in 1999. A German translation was issued by Reuss through the Oriflamme circa 1914. 414 = AZVTh (Hebrew), Azoth (some lists cite this work as Azoth: De Arte Magica), also AIN SVP AVR,Ain Soph Aur, the Limitless Light.
CDXV.	Opus Lutetianum, the Paris Working. Record of a series of invocations of Jupiter and Mercury by Crowley and Neuburg using a homosexual variant on the O.T.O. formula. Class AB. Published in EQ V (4) and IV (2) (an earlier attempt at publication by Symonds and Grant in 1975 fell through as a result of a row between Grant and his publisher). 415 = H-QDVSh, “the Holy One, sodomite.”
CDXVIII.	Liber XXX Ærum vel Sæculi, being of the Angels of the Thirty Æthyrs the Vision and the Voice. A series of visions of the 30 Æthyrs of the Enochian system. Class AB (portions are in Class D). First published in EQ I (5); reprinted in Gems; reprints with different edited versions of the commentary in The Vision and the Voice, with a Commentary by the Master Therion (1952), The Vision and the Voice (Sangreal, 1972) and EQ IV (2). 418 = ABRAHADABRA, amongst other things.
CDLI.	Liber Siloam. “A direct method of inducing trance.” Class D. Not definitely identifed; an early Crowley ritual, titled simply “A Ritual of Invocation” which may be a draft of this (it refers to the “Sleep of Siloam”) is extant and was published in The Magical Link in 1999. Another “Ritual 451” survives in an academic collection, but from the sketchy account of it I have, it appears to pertain to O.T.O. rather than A∴A∴ 451 = ShILOAM (also IShMOAL, Ishmael, as it is written “Call me Ishmael...”).
CDLI.	The chapter “Of Eroto-Comatose Lucidity” from De Arte Magica, which gives instructions in inducing a trance state through sexual exhaustion, is sometimes cited under this number as a Class B paper (apparently following remarks by Crowley in correspondence with C.S. Jones). The unpublished ritual mentioned above is apparently based around this chapter, and the citation may refer to that ritual as a whole. See Liber 414 for publication details, also printed in full in Aleister Crowley and the Hidden God by Kenneth Grant. See above for 451; the name “Sleep of Siloam” (or 'Sialam') for a deliberately induced clairvoyant trance state was probably taken by Crowley from Blavatsky's Isis Unveiled, or possibly the H.B. of L.
CDLXXIV.	Liber Os Abysmi vel Daath. “An instruction in a purely intellectual method of entering the Abyss.” Calculated to trigger a (hopefully temporary) psychotic breakdown by a systematic assault on the reason (e.g., by reading Hegel). Class B on first publication, Class C in the 1913 Syllabus. First published EQ I (7), reprinted in Gems. 474 = DOTh, Da'ath.
D.	Sepher Sephiroth. A Gematria dictionary, listing Hebrew words and phrases by numerical value. Begun by Allan Bennet, expanded by Crowley and others. Class B. First published EQ I (8), reprinted (in compressed form, minus the introduction, and (in the first printings) with the inexcusable omission of the table of factors) in The Qabalah of Aleister Crowley (later published as 777 and other Qabalistic Writings) and as an appendix to the third edition of Godwin's Qabalistic Encyclopaedia (Llewellyn, 1994). 500 = ‘ο αριθμος, a number (sic, s.b. ‘the number’, or ‘number’ in the abstract, Greek has no indefinite article).
DXXXVI.	ΒΑΤΡΑΧΟΦΡΕΝΟΒΟΟΚΟΣΜΟΜΑΧΙΑ. Meditation practices and visualisation exercises for the expansion of consciousness; despite what Kenneth Grant says this instruction has no direct connection with the vibration of Barbarous Names. Class B. Published in EQ I (10), Gems and The Complete Astrological Writings. 536 = MSLVTh (Heb.), Mazloth, the Sphere of the Fixed Stars.
DXXXVI.	A Complete Treatise on Astrology (a.k.a. General Principles of Astrology). With Evangeline Adams. Crowley and Adams fell out before this was published; Adams appropriated the bulk of the work and published it in 1929 and 1930 under her name alone as Astrology: Your Place in the Sun and Astrology: Your Place among the Stars. A part of the work was published in two different editions in 1970s under Crowley's name, as The Complete (sic) Astrological Writings (edited by Symonds and Grant) and Aleister Crowley's Astrology, edited by Steven Skinner; this consisted of the introductory chapter, and chapters on Uranus and Neptune. The whole work published in 2002 in The General Principles of Astrology (Red Wheel / Weiser), bound up with some shorter writings on the subject by Crowley. See above for 536.
DLV.	Liber HAD. Meditation and magick practices based on the second chapter of The Book of the Law; a formula for invoking Hadit. Class D. Published in EQ I (7); reprinted in V (1), also in Gems and L.M. DuQuette's Magick of Thelema. 555 = HH ALP DLT (Heb.), H A D “expanded,” i.e. each letter “written in full.”
DCXXXIII.	De Thaumaturgia. “A statement of certain ethical considerations concerning Magick.” Published in the International February 1918; reprinted in EQ III (10). Also cited as Liber DCXXIII.
DCLXVI.	Artemis Iota vel de Coitu Scholiæ Triviæ. An essay on the application of the Law of Thelema to sexual morality. Class B according to Yorke, although it did not bear an A∴A∴ imprimatur on first publication. Date of composition unknown to me, but was originally circulated among O.T.O. lodges before being included in Magick Without Tears. Published again in Motta's Equinox V (1). 666 in this instance = Αρτεμις Ι.
DCLXVI.	The Beast. “An account of the Magical Personality who is the Logos of the present Aeon.” Gerald Yorke identified it with The Master Therion: A biographical Note, first published in a German translation in 1925; first English publication in EQ III (10) in 1986, also in the 1992 New Falcon edition of The Heart of the Master. On internal evidence, however, A biographical Note has an earliest possible date of 1924, whereas The Beast was advertised in EQ III (1), 1919. Symonds and Grant, in a footnote to the 1973 edition of Magick, claim it became The Equinox of the Gods (the reference is presumably to the autobiographical chapters of Genesis Libri AL), but they cite no evidence for this assertion. 666 = ... well, you know.
DCLXXI.	Liber Pyramidos. “The ritual of the initiation of a Neophyte. It includes sub-rituals numbered from 672 to 676.” Class D. This ritual has gone through a number of revisions; the earliest extant version is a TS. from ca. 1907 in the collection of Syracuse University, titled Liber DCLXXI vel ThROA, which was published in 2003 in a limited edition on the “Nuit / Hadit” imprint. During a magical retirement in Paris in 1908 (see Liber 860, “John St. John“) Crowley prepared a versified solo version as a ritual of Self-Initiation; various versions of this have seen print (a typeset in Sothis magazine in the 1970s and in various pamphlet editions; the illuminated MS. was published in facsimile in Equinox IV (3) and in the aforementioned limited edition of Liber TROA). Multiple minor variations of this ritual have been posted on the Internet. 671 = ThROA (Heb.), the Gate also ADNI, Adonai, “spelt in full” ALP DLTh NVN YVD.
DCC.	Liber Vesta vel PAROKETH. Describes the robes of the Outer Order of the A∴A∴ (worked up by a modern A∴A∴ group from Crowley's early notes and sketches). First published in EQ IV (1) where it was declared to be Class D, although there is evidence that some of the robe designs were later changed by Crowley as they looked silly. 700 = PRKTh, Paroketh, the “veil of the Temple” in G.D. Qabala.
DCCXXIX.	The Amalantrah Working. A record of communications with a discarnate entity calling itself “the Wizard Amalantrah” through the mediumship of Soror Achitha (Roddie Minor). Class C. Planned for inclusion in The Paris and Amalantrah Workings, edited by Symonds and Grant (93 Publishing, 1975) but this was never issued. Published by “Oroboros Press” in 1993; scheduled for inclusion in EQ IV (3). Most if not all surviving copies of the record are incomplete. 729 = AMALANTRAH (Heb.), also BAVOMIThR, Crowley's Hebrew spelling of Baphomet.
DCCLXXVII.	777 vel prolegomena symbolica ad systematum sceptico-mysticæ viæ explicandæ fundamentum hieroglyphicum sanctissimorum scientæ summæ. Tables of Qabalistic correspondences, largely filched from Golden Dawn material. Class B. First published 1909, reprinted with lengthy notes to the tables and a number of supplementary essays in 1955, the revised edition incorporated into The Qabalah of Aleister Crowley. There have been some additional reprints of 777 Revised, some with further additions / corrections, but I have no information concerning these at present. 777 is the enumeration of AChTh RVCh ALHIM ChIIM (Heb.), Achath Ruach Elohim Chayyim, One is the Spirit of the Living Elohim, and OVLM H-QLIPVTh (Heb.), Olahm ha-Qlippoth, The World of the Shells; also of the paths of the Flaming Sword, counting Gimel = 3 as the nonexistant path between Binah and Chesed (assuming you are using the Kircher Tree of Life).
DCCC.	The Ship. A mystery play. Class C (according to Crowley in correspondence with C.S. Jones) but it is dedicated to Reuss, is riddled with Masonic symbolism, and bits have been incorporated into at least one O.T.O. ritual. First published in EQ I (10), reprinted in The Giant's Thumb and O.T.O. Rituals and Sex Magick. 800 = QTSh (Heb.), Qetesh, a bow, the reference here being to the Rainbow of Promise in the Hebrew legend of the Flood.
DCCC.	Liber Samekh, Theurgia Goetia Summa (Congressus cum Dæmone). Crowley's final revision of the “Bornless One” ritual (the so-called Preliminary Invocation of the Goetia; originally a rite of exorcism from the a Græco-Egyptian magical papyrus in the British Museum (London Papyrus 46, a.k.a. PGM V) titled the “Stele of Jeu the Hieroglyphist”). Class D. Also cited as Liber CXX (120 = SMK, Samekh in full) and Liber CCCLXV (365 = Αβρασαξ, one of the barbarous names in the ritual). First published as Appendix IV of MTP, reprinted in Gems (minus a long essay which forms part 3). 800 = QThSh, Qetesh, a bow and the three Paths from Malkuth on the Kircher Tree of Life, and also (according to an editorial note in the 1994 edition of Magick), the value of an otherwise unknown Hebrew letter-form, “Samekh final.”
DCCCVIII.	Liber Serpentis Nehustan. I have absolutely no idea what this is. Unpublished AFAIK. 808 = NChShThN, Nehushtan, refers to the Brass Serpent of the Book of Numbers, etc.
DCCCXI.	Energised Enthusiasm. “A note on Theurgy.” An essay on sex and religion. Class C. First published in EQ I (9), reprinted in Gems and elsewhere (has also been published as a pamphlet). 811 = ΙΑΩ.
DCCCXIII.	Liber DCCCXIII vel Ararita sub figura DLXX. “An account of the Hexagram, and the method of reducing it to the Unity, and Beyond.” Class A. A “set text” for the A∴A∴ grade of Philosophus. First published in Thelema volume III; reprinted in The Holy Books and EQ III (9). Brief commentary in EQ IV (1). 813 = ARARITA; 570 = inter alia, ShOR (Heb.), Shaar, the Gate, a title of Malkuth – but the “official” reason for this number was never given.
DCCCXXXI.	Liber Yod, formerly called Vesta. A series of meditation and magick practices for “drawing all to a point.” Class D. A supplementary section at the end is attributed (in the Index to Equinox vol. I) to one S.H. Perry. First published in EQ I (7) in Class B, under the title Liber Tau; reprinted in MTP appendix VII and Gems. 831 = Φαλλος and Πυρμις.
DCCCXXXVII.	The Law of Liberty. A rant about the Law of Thelema. Class E. First published as a pamphlet in 1917, reprinted in The International, February 1918, EQ III (1) and III (10). 837 = ThTh ZL (Heb.), Tath Zel, the Profuse Giver.
DCCCL.	The Rites of Eleusis. A series of dramatic rituals for the seven classical planets, incorporating large chunks of Crowley's poetry, as well as some Golden Dawn material and pieces by Shelley and Swinburne. Part of the Rites of Mars and Mercurcy were (according to the Index to Equinox vol. I) written by George Raffalovitch. First published in EQ I (6); reprinted with additional papers by Mandrake of Thame, 1990. 850 = Ελευσις.
DCCCLX.	John St. John. Crowley's diary of a magical retirement in Paris in 1908. Class C. Published in EQ I (1) and reprinted in Aleister Crowley and the Practice of the Magical Diary. 860 = Ιων, John.
DCCCLXVIII.	Liber Viarum Viæ. “A graphical account of magical powers classified under the Tarot trumps” and referred to various A∴A∴ libri, some of which cannot be readily identified. Class B. First published in EQ I (7); reprinted in Gems. 868 = NTIBVTh (Heb.), Paths.
DCCCLXXXVIII.	Jesus: A Complete Study of the Origins of Christianity. Also known as The Gospel According to Saint Bernard Shaw. A lengthy study of Christianity, cast in the form of a reply to the Preface to Shaw's Androcles and the Lion. Originally scheduled for publication in EQ III (2); published as a duplicated typescript in 1953 by Germer, again as Crowley on Christ edited by Francis King (London: C.W. Daniel, 1974). 888 = Ιησους, Jesus.
CMXIII.	ThIShARB, Liber Viæ Memoriæ. An instruction in backwards thinking for the purpose of past life regression. Class B. Published in EQ I (7); reprinted in MTP appendix VII, Gems and elsewhere. 913 = ThIShARB (Heb, B'rashith spelt backwards).
CMXXXIV.	The Cactus. A study of the effects of Anhalonium lewinii (now Lophophora williamsi), the peyote cactus, in the form of a series of brief case studies and an accompanying esssay. Unfinished and lost; the notes from the case studies were destroyed by H.M. Customs.
CMLXIII.	Thesaurou Eidolon, the Treasure-House of Images. A series of “Litanies” for the signs of the Zodiac, etc. By J.F.C. Fuller (“many adjectives removed by A. Crowley.”). A short prefatory note by Crowley is in Class A, the body is in Class B. First published in EQ I (3), reprinted in the Mandrake edition of The Rites of Eleusis and in the misleadingly titled The Pathworkings of Aleister Crowley (New Falcon, 1996). 963 = Achad spelt in full, i.e. ALP ChITh DLTh.
MCXXXIX.	In Liber Viarum Viæ, there is ascribed to the Path of Zayin, “The Utterance of the Pythoness. Liber MCXXXIX.” There are no other citations known to me of any work with this number. It has been alleged to me that a “Liber HBITh HZIN vel Fatum Pythonissæsub figura MCXXXIX” (HBITh HZIN (Hebrew) = 1139 counting Nun final = 700, lit “The house of the sword”) survives in typescript in a private collection, but I have no description of its contents. 1139 also = Greek, δελφυς, ‘womb,’ sometimes suggested (by writers who Crowley was apparently disposed to take seriously) as a root for the name of Delphi.
MCCLXIV.	The Greek Qabalah. Projected as a dictionary of Greek numerology, after the fashion of Sepher Sephiroth, but never finished. Crowley's working notes for it survive and various reconstructions of this work have been issued in O.T.O. body magazines.
MMCMXI.	A Note on Genesis. An example of the method of Literal Qabalah, applied to the opening line of Genesis. By Allan Bennett. Class C. Published in EQ I (2); reissued as a pamphlet by Weiser in the 1970s (now out of print). 2911 = BRAShITh with the B writ large (so counted as 2000).
	Liber Collegii Interni. Class D. I have never seen this paper or even a coherent description of it, although it has been suggested it was intended to deal with internal administrative matters of A∴A∴; it may thus overlap with or include Liber Mysteriorum or the rituals α, β, and γ mentioned in Liber DCLXXI vel TROA. Related material survives in Crowley's MS notebooks but is unpublished. Yorke has this down as Liber DCCCXI.

Abbreviations used:
EQ: The Equinox. Roman numerals denote volume number. The four issues of Vol V (1976-1981) were published by Marcelo Motta whose right to publish Crowley material was rejected by a ruling in the US Federal courts in 1985. At least two different publishers have produced issues of a Vol VII; these are not cited here.
MTP: Magick in Theory and Practice.
Gems: Gems from the Equinox. A collection of magical writings from Equinox Vol I and Vol III no 1, plus some of the rituals from the appendices to MTP, edited by Israel Regardie. First published Llewellyn, 1970; reprinted by Falcon Press / New Falcon 1982, 1988 and possibly since.
4 (I-IV): Magick: Book 4 parts I-IV (Samuel Weiser, 1994, 1997). This edition is also cited as the “Blue Brick” from its manifested form. If a paper is in one of the appendices to MTP, I have not bothered to give a separate citation for this volume).
AFAIK: As far as I know.

Researched and compiled by Frater Tripudians Stella (based in large part on the researches of Gerald Yorke and the editor’s notes to the 1994 edition of Crowley’s Magick).
