                      The Most Holy Grimoire.

    This Grimoire, which contains the Secret of Secrets not yet revealed,
 was made by the Supreme King O.T.O. Baphomet Xø M... himself.

                       Regarding the Temple.

           1.  East     ...............    Altar
           2.  West     ...............    Tablet of god to be invoked
           3.  North    ...............    Priestess {or Priest}
           4.  South    ...............    Fire with thurible. etc.
           5.  Center   ...............    Four-sided Stone with:

             Images of the God

             Most Great, Ineffable, Unspoken Secret
             and with sword, bell, oil

             The Virgin.  Place the image beside the Book Thelema.

                    Regarding the First Ceremony.

 Let it done be as Book 671 has said, but first let the Virgin be purified
 with the words: "Asperge me..." etc., and put off her garments with the
 words: "Per sanctum Mysterium," etc. Thus is the Pyramid raised.  Then the
 Virgin purifies the priest, and removes his vestments as is above ordained.

    (Here the virgin states the orations of this work of god).

                Regarding the Ceremony of the Thurible.

    Let the virgin kindle the fire and the priest with her hands, saying:

 "Accendat in nobis Dominus ignem sui amoris et flamman aeternae caritatis."


                 Regarding the Ceremony of Dedication.

    The virgin invokes the image of the God Most Huge, Ineffable, Secret, not
 to be spoken of, with these words. --- "Tu qui es prater omnia...x.t.l."
 Neither does she relinquish the other image.


                     Regarding the Final Sacrifice

    Then the priest breaks the silence with the words of the holy versicle of
 the particular god being invoked

    He enters the Holy of Holies.

    Beware; beware; beware.

    Two who are become ONE sing without interuption, and in high voice,
 the words of the holy versicles.


®MDNM¯                 Regarding the Blessing of the Blessing

 Having spent the dew, the woman says these words "Quia patris et filii s.s."
 etc.


                      Regarding the Final Ceremony

 Let it be done as it has been said in Book 671.
