I'm interested in seeing it again - I tried to look it up when this
thread came up, but couldn't find it in Crowley's MAGIC IN THEORY
AND PRACTICE.  I'm pretty sure it's in there.  The worst thing about
Crowley isn't his lack of source citation; it's the uselessness of
his tables of contents (Mayhap he wanted his students to memorize
his books??).

Anyway, Richard, if you type it in and you use this book as a
source, could you please cite the page number as well?  Heck, if you
want to, just give me the page numbers and *I'll* post it for you.
