Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Friday, 10 May 1901

 

 

Macbeth V i 85          As you Like It III V 82

     

Put up at Hawaiian Hotel Annex on Waikiki Beach.

     

Set up Shrine.

     

Bathed twice.

     

No work. An art current seems to have got hold of me again.

     

I am in a dilemma re Orpheus yet worked at it. Wrote an interlude on R.L.S. and effect of this place—Opening of Sc[ene] 3 and a stanza for "The Centuries".

     

Met pretty widow[1] or divorceé with kid. She seems nice—will do for working up Eurydice emotions. P.S. No, b...h her! Happily married.

 

 

1—Mary Alice Rogers who became the "Alice" of Crowley's book Alice; an Adultery.
