Charge of the Goddess

[seekerofknwoledge]

I'm sure this has been asked a million times...but what's one more? I'm looking for The Charge of the Goddess, and I have found few different versions online, but I'd prefer the original "unadapted" version. Could anyone direct me to a good resource, or post it here? Thanks so much!

This is (I suspect) the one Gardner wrote. It's mostly Crowley and Leland with some rewordings and a bit of orginal work.
Later ones show Valiente's work, as may be seen here:

The ones that are prevalent online seem to be rehashes of the Starhawk version, which she 'updated' (removed all the Olde Englishe type stuff) but I myself much prefer the older versions, mostly because of this: "Keep pure your highest ideals. Strive ever towards it. Let naught stop you or turn you aside" which has sadly been left out of most modern versions.

Thank you so much! I was actually looking for the "pre-Starhawk" version because I also prefer the Olde English style, especially when it comes to something used in ritual/sacred time.
