- The Holy Books Preface by Hymenaeus Alpha — “The balance of the Holy Books were apparently received in 1911 e.v. In his Confessions, Crowley lists several Holy Books in a survey of writings produced in that year. This list includes Liber CCXXXI, discussed above—an apparent reference to the versified textual portion of that book, which is not mentioned in the Diary for 1907 e.v. Also listed are Libri I, XC, CLVI and CCCLXX.”

- Chapter 69 - “LIBER CCCLXX, The Book of Creation or of the Goat of the Spirit, analyses the nature of the creative magical force in man, explains how to awaken it, how to use it and indicates the general as well as the particular objects to be gained thereby.”
- Liber Artemis Iota vel de Coitu Scholia Triviæ sub figura DCLXVI — “Study: The student should study, bear in mind, and take to heart, such classics as the Ananga-Ranga, the Bagh-i-Muattar of Abdullah el Haji, the Kama Shastra, the Kama Sutra, the Scented Garden of the Sheikh Nefzawi, and certain scientific or pseudo-scientific treatises (usually upon the deformities of nature, or the abuses of ignorance) by numerous authors, mostly French, German, Austrian or Italian. Energised Enthusiasm (The Equinox, Vol. 1, No. 9) is of palmary virtue. (Liber LXVI, Liber CCCLXX, Liber DCCCXXXI, Liber CLXXV, Liber CLVI and others, also in The Equinox, are official publications of the A∴A∴.)”
