Lord Shiva, the magician, awakes. The Scarlet Woman, whore of heaven, smokes a big, fat joint ; Astarte of the moon brings the wings of snow ; Pan bestows the grapes of Bacchus ; Hecate offers the sacred mushroon, yage, wormwood brew. The vintage of Hecate is poured. Pan's cup is poisoned by Lord Shiva. The orgy ensues - a magick masquerade at which Pan is the prize. Lady Kali blesses the rites of the children of light as Lord Shiva invokes the godhead with the formula 'Force and Fire'. Dedicated to the few ; and to Aleister Crowley; and the crowned and conquering child. 541 0 PFA 1616-01-2687. D0059 590 PFA 1616-01-2687. |aCOPY-SPECIFC DESCRIPTION: 1 reel of 1 (1313 ft.)
