Arthur Edward Waite

"Arthur Edward Waite (2 October 1857 – 19 May 1942), commonly known as A. E. Waite, was an American-born British poet and scholarly mystic who wrote extensively on occult and esoteric matters, and was the co-creator of the Rider-Waite Tarot deck. As his biographer R. A. Gilbert described him, ""Waite's name has survived because he was the first to attempt a systematic study of the history of western occultism—viewed as a spiritual tradition rather than as aspects of proto-science or as the pathology of religion.""

Samenvatting

Excerpt from Lucasta: Parables and Poems
With Harp and Crown.
Sons of the Morning and Eternity,
Children of Benediction and of Light,
Daughters of angels' kisses, I have wrought
A little book of melody and love -
A book against the Resurrection Day,
Song-mystic of humanity divine,
Achieved in one regenerated youth,
Our bright, sidereal beacon - Israfel.
I swear, my brethren, by the Orphic faith,
And by the faithful prophecies inscribed
Deep in discerning souls, that starry hosts,
Empyrean kings, and galaxies of gods,
Lead on that Spirit, and his reign is nigh.
He stands erect among frankincense clouds,
A pillar of melody. His saffron hair
Is a cloud of harpstrings; as he moves in grace
And ministers, the ground beneath his feet
Quivers in music like a sounding-board;
The parted air about him slowly streams
