                              TWIG?(33)

The Phoenix hath a Bell for Sound; Fire for Sight; a
      Knife for Touch; two cakes, one for taste, the other
      for smell.
    He standeth before the Altar of the Universe at
      Sunset, when Earth-life fades.
    He summons the Universe, and crowns it with
      MAGICK Light to replace the sun of natural light.
    He prays unto, and give homage to, Ro-Hoor_khuit;
      to Him he then sacrifices.
    The first cake, burnt, illustrates the profit drawn
      from the scheme of incarnation.
    The second, mixt with his life's blood and eaten,
      illustrates the use of the lower life to feed the
      higher life.
    He then takes the Oath and becomes free-un
      conditioned-the Absolute.
    Burning up i the Flame of his Prayer, and born
      again-the Phoenix!
