of course , the writings themselves are not easy , all the masters who write of this solemn work , they make their books to many men full dark , through poetry , and parables , and metaphors also , which to scholars cause much pain and woe i remembered reading eliphas levi , very many years ago , and reread some of his work now , if youre as dedicated as the brothers you can read a free download of dogma and ritual of high magic though i dont recommend it .
