haec nos subjugavit Cum autem apparuerint Spiritus tunc dicas Bene veneritis Spiritus vel reges nobilissimi quia vos vocavi per illum cui omne genu flectitur caelestium terrestrium et infernorum cujus in manu omnia regna regum sunt nec est quiae suae contrarius esse possit Majestati Quatenus constringuo vos ut hic ante circulum visibiles affabiles permanetis tamdiu tamque constantes nec sint licentia mea recedatis donec meam sine fallacia aliqua et veredice perficiatis voluntatem per potentiae illius virtutem qui mare posuit terminum suum quem praeterire non protest et lege illius potentiae non pertransit fines suos Dei scilicet altissimi regis domini qui cuncta creavit Amen Then command what you will and it shall be done afterwards license them thus † In nomine Paetris † Filii et † Spiritus sancti ite in pace ad loca vestra et pax sit inter nos et vos parati sitis venire vocati Visions and apparitions THESE things duly performed there will appear infinite Visions and Phantasms beating of organs and all kinds of musical Instruments which is done by the spirits that with the terror they might force the companions to go out of the Circle because they can do nothing against the Master After this you shall see an infinite company of archers with a great multitude of horrible beasts which will so compose themselves as if they would devour the fellows nevertheless fear nothing Then the Priest or Master holding his hand towards the pentacle shall say Avoid hence these iniquities by virtue of the banner of God and then will the spirits be compelled to obey the Master and the company shall see no more Then let the exorcist stretching out his hand to the pentacle say Behold the pentacle of Solomon which I have brought before your presence Behold the person of the exorcist in the middle of the exorcism who is armed by God and without fear and well provided who potently invocateth and calleth you by exorcizing come therefore with speed in the virtue of these names Aye Saraye Aye Saraye defer not to come by the eternal names of the living and true God Eloy Archima Rabur and by the pentacle here present which powerfully reigns over you and by virtue of the celestial spirits your Lords and by the person of the exorci●t being conjured make haste to come and yield obedience to your Master who is called Octinomos This being performed there w●●l be ●issi●gs in the four parts of the world and then immediately you shall see great motions and when you see them say why stay you wherefore do you delay what do you prepare yourselves to be obedient to your Master in the name of the Lord Bathat or Vachat rushing upon Abrac Abeor coming upon Aberer Then they will immediately come in their proper form and when you see them before the Circle shew them the Pentacle covered with fine linen uncover it and say behold your confusion if you refuse to be obedient and suddenly they will appear in a peaceable form and will say ask what you will for we are prepared to fulfil all your commands for the Lord hath subjected us hereunto and when the spirits have appeared then you shall say welcome spirits or most noble Kings because I have called you through him to whom every knee doth bow both of things in heaven and things on earth and things under the earth in whose hands are all the kingdoms of Kings neither is their any that can contradict his Majesty Wherefore I bind you that you remain affable and visible before this circle so long and so constant neither shall ye depart without my licence until you have truely and without any fallacy performed my will by virtue of his power who hath set the sea her bounds beyond which these cannot pass nor go beyond the law of his power to wit of the most high God Lord and King who hath created all things Amen † In the name of the Father † and of the Son † and of the holy Ghost go in peace unto your places peace be between us and you be ye ready to come when ye are called These are the things which Peter de Abano hath spoken concerning magical elements But that you may the better know the manner of composing a Circle I will set down one scheme so that if any one would make a Circle

the West If in Sagittary in the East nigh the North. If in Capricorn full South If in Aquary in the West towards the North. And if in Pisces in the North towards the West If you would know whether the thief hath carried all the things stolen away with him see the Lord of the seventh and the eighth and if the Lord of the seventh be in an Angle he had a desire to carry away the same with him but could not If the Lord of the eighth be in a mean house or in a cadent house and the Lord of the second in a strong house he hath carried the theft wholly with him And if the Lord of the seventh and the eighth be both in cadent houses he neither carried it away nor hath it See by the seventh who is his companion and what is his gain If you would know the descent or nobility of a man or woman look unto the Lord of the seventh which if you find him in Angles and the Lord of the first in succedents or cadents the woman is more noble than the man But if the Lord of the Ascendant be in an Angle and the Lord of the seventh in a succedent or cadent house the man is more noble than the woman And after the same manner thou mayest judge of two companions or of any other persons whatsoever And if the Lord of the seventh be in the ninth House he will take a wife out of a foreign Country If you desire to know whether an intended marriage shall take effect or not look to the Ascendant and his Lord and the Moon for the Querent and the seventh house and his Lord for the woman And if the Lord of the Ascendant or the Moon be joined to the Lord of the seventh or be in the seventh the marriage will be effected or if the Lord of the seventh be in the first or with the Lord of the first it will easily be brought to pass and the woman be more desirous thereof than the man If you would know whether thy wife or friend hath any other lover or not look if Mars be in the seventh so that he be not in his own house for then she hath not any other lover And if Saturn be there she loveth another but he lieth not with her And if the Dragons Tail be in the seventh he lieth with her And if Jupiter be there she hardly containeth herself chaste If Venus she is merry and much given to play and laughter by reason whereof she may be accountted a whore and is not so If Mercury be in the seventh she had a lover but now hath none But if the Moon be in the seventh she hath had no lover as yet but will have one and will be common But if the Sun or the Dragons Head be there she is chaste And after the same manner may you judge in the * ninth* concerning friends or lovers If you would know which of them shall live longest see the Lord of the first and of the seventh which of them shall be in the stronger better place or joined to the strongest Planets and that person who is most free and remote from the Lord of the eighth and his participation to whom the Lord of his house answereth shall live longest If you desire to make a society or alliance and would know whether it shall be brought to pass or not or what shall happen thereupon see if there be good Planets in the seventh and the first and if so the fellowship will be made and good will come thereof and you may judge it to continue so many years months or days as the Lord of the seventh hath signification of If you would know when such society shall be look what Planet is in the seventh for if he be good it shall come to pass that same year or wedlock * R* if the Question be thereof If you would know whether they will well agree see the first and his Lord which is the signifier of the Querent and the seventh house his Lord which is the house of companions wives and concubines which if they be concordant amongst themselves there will be peace and union between them and they shall profit but if the Planets be in discord there will be strife between them and the society will not profit If you would know which of them shall gain most see the first and his Lord and the seventh and his Lord and which of them standeth best or if they be evil which of them falleth and he that falleth shall lose and he that is exalted shall gain Or otherwise and which is better see the second and his Lord and the eighth and his Lord and in which house is the better Planet or his Lord that shall be found in the better place or joined with the better Planets he shall be the greater gainer The second House of his Lord signifies the gain of the Querent and the eighth house and his Lord signifies the gain of his fellow or his part and if they be both good they shall both gain and if both evil they shall both lose and if one be good and the other evil he whose significator is good shall gain and he whose is evil shall lose And if you would know if two fellows shall love one another look if the Lords of the first the seventh be friends and agreeing then they will love one another but if they be enemies disagree then they will not If you desire to know who shall overcome in any cause matter or controversie behold the Lords of the first and the seventh which if they be in Angles neither of them shall overcome and see which of them is joined with an evil Plane● because he shall overcome and if the Planet be evil from them both the victor shall kill the conquered if one of them be strong and the other weak and the Planet which is in the strong house do not fall nor hath not an evil Planet with him and if he which is weak be not in his own house nor in his exaltation nor with a good Planet he whose Planet is in the strong house shall overcome likewise he whose significator is in a mean house shall have great fear and doubt in his heart because sometimes he shall hope to conquer and otherwhiles fear to be overcome And note that in a question concerning war and kingdom it is said that there is more power and efficacy or fortitude in the exaltation of a Planet than in his house but in all other Questions the contrary If you would be informed concerning any one being that is gone to any fight whether he shall return safe see the Lord of the Ascendant if he be good that is with good Planets and a good Planet in the first he will return safe but if the Sun be with the Lord of the first in any part of the Question let him not go because the Sun burneth

will give him an increase in wisdom Aphor. 20. All things are possible to them that believe them and are willing to receive them but to the incredulous and unwilling all things are unpossible there is no greater hinderance than a wavering mind levity unconstancy foolish babbling drunkenness lusts and disobedience to the word of God A Magician therefore ought to be a man that is godly honest constant in his words and deeds having a firm faith towards God prudent and covetous of nothing but wisdom about divine things Aphor. 21. When you would call any of the Olympick spirits observe the rising of the Sun that day and of what nature the spirit is which you desire saying the Prayer following your desires shall be perfected Omnipotent and eternal God who hast ordained the whole creation for thy praise and glory and for the salvation of man I beseech thee that thou wouldest send thy Spirit N. N. of the solar order who shall inform and teach me those things which I shall ask of him or that he may bring me medicine against the dropsy c. Nevertheless not my will be done but thine through Jesus Christ thy only begotten Son our Lord. Amen But thou shalt not detain the spirit above a full hour unless he be familiarly adicted to thee Forasmuch as thou camest in peace and quietly hast answered unto my petitions I give thanks unto God in whose name thou camest and now thou mayest depart in peace unto thy orders and return to me again when I shall call thee by thy name or by thy order or by thy office which is granted from the Creator Amen Ecclesiast Chap. 5. Be not rash with thy mouth neither let thy heart be hasty to utter any thing before God for God is in heaven and thou on earth Therefore let thy words be few for a dream cometh through the multitude of business The third Septenary Aphor. 22. We call that a secret which no man can attain unto by human industry without revelation which Science lieth obscured hidden by God in the creature which nevertheless he doth permit to be revealed by spirits to a due use of the thing itself And these secrets are either concerning things divine natural or human But thou mayest examine a few and the most select which thou wilt commend with a many more Aphor. 23. Make the begining of the nature of the secret either by a spirit in the form of a person or by virtues seperate either in human Organs or by what manner soever the same may be effected and this being known require of a spirit which knoweth that art that he would briefly declare unto thee whatsoever that secret is and pray unto God that he would inspire thee with his grace whereby thou mayest bring the secret to the end thou desirest for the praise and glory of God and the profit of thy neighbour Aphor. 24. The greatest secrets are in number seven 1. The first is the curing of all diseases in the space of seven days either by characters or by natural things or by the superior spirits with the divine assistance 2. The second is to be able to prolong life to whatsoever age we please I say a corporal natural life 3. The third is to have the obedience of the creatures in the elements which are in the forms of personal spirits also of Pigmies Sagani Nymphs Dryades and spirits of the woods 4. The fourth is to be able to discourse with knowledge and understanding of all things visible and invisible and to understand the power of every thing and to what it belongeth 5. The fifth is that a man be able to govern himself according to that end for which God hath appointed him 6. The sixth is to know God and Christ his holy spirit this is the perfection of the Microcosmus 7. The seventh to be regenerate as Henochius the King of the inferior world These seven secrets a man of an honest and constant mind may learn of the Spirits without any offence unto God The mean secrets are likewise seven in number 1. The first is the transmutation of Metals which is vulgarly called Alchymy which certainly is given to very few and not but of special grace 2. The second is the curing of diseases with Metals either by the magnetick virtues of precious stones or by the use of the Philosophers stone and the like 3. The third is to be able to perform Astronomical and Mathematical miracles such as are Hydraulick-engines to administer business by the influence of Heaven and things which are of the like sort 4. The fourth is to perform the works of natural Magick of what sort soever they be 5. The fifth is to know all Physical secrets 6. The sixth is to know the foundation of all Arts which are exercised with the hands and offices of the body 7. The seventh is to know the foundation of all Arts which are exercised by the angelical nature of man The lesser secrets are seven 1. The first is to do a thing diligently and to gather together much money 2. The second is to ascend from a mean state to dignities and honours and to establish a newer family which may be illustrious and do great things 3. The third is to excel in military affairs and happily to atchieve to great things and to be an head of the head of Kings and Princes 4. To be a good house-keeper both in the Country and City 5. The fifth is to be an industrious and fortunate Merchant 6. To be a Philosopher Mathematician and Physician according to Aristotle Plato Ptolomy Euclides Hippocrates and Galen 7. To be a divine according to the Bible and Schools which all writers of divinity both old and new have taught Aphor. 25. We have already declared what a secret is the kinds and species thereof it remaineth now to shew how we may attain to know those things which we desire The true and only way to all secrets is to have recourse unto God the Author of all good and as Christ teacheth In the first place seek ye the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you 2. Also see that your hearts be not burthened with surfeting and drunkenness and the cares of this life 3. Also commit your cares unto the Lord and he will do it 4. Also I the Lord thy God do teach thee what things are profitable for thee and do guide thee in the way wherein thou walkest 5. And I will give thee understanding and will teach thee in the way wherein thou shalt go and I will guide thee with my eye 6. Also if you which are evil know how to give good things to your children how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give his holy Spirit to them that ask him 7. If you do the will of my Father which is in heaven ye are truly my disciples and we will come unto you and make our abode

Daniel and sooner heareth us than we are able to overcome the hardness of our hearts to pray But he will not that we give holy things to dogs nor despise and contemn the gifts of his treasury Therefore diligently and often read over and over the first Septinary of secrets and guide and direct thy life and all thy thoughts according to those precepts and all things shall yield to the desires of thy mind in the Lord to whom thou trustest The fifth Septenary Aphor. 29. As our study of Magick proceedeth in order from general Rules premised let us now come to a particular explication thereof Spirits either are divine ministers of the word and of the Church and the members thereof or else they are servient to the Creatures in corporal things partly for the salvation of he soul and body and partly for its destruction And there is nothing done whether good or evil without a certain and determinate order and government He that seeketh after a good end let him follow it and he that desireth an evil end pursueth that also and that earnestly from divine punishment and turneth away from the divine will Therefore let every one compare his ends with the word of God and as a touchstone that will judge between good and evil and let him propose unto himself what is to be avoided and what is to be sought after and that which he constituteth and determineth unto himself let him follow diligently not procrastinaing or delaying until he attain to his appointed bound Aphor. 30. They which desire riches glory of this world Magistracy honours dignities tyrannies and that magically if they endeavour diligently after them they shall obtain them every one according to his destiny industry magical sciences as the history of Melesina witnesseth the Magicians thereof who ordained that none of the Italian nation should for ever obtain the rule or Kingdom of Naples and brought it to pass that he who reigned in his age to be thrown down from his seat so great is the power of the guardian or tutelar Angels of the Kingdoms of the world Aphor. 31. Call the Prince of the Kingdom and lay a command upon him and command what thou wilt and it shall be done if that Prince be not again absolved from his obedience by a succeeding Magician Therefore the Kingdom of Naples may be again restored to the Italians if any Magician shall call him who Instituted this order and compel him to recall his deed he may be compelled also to restore the secret powers taken from the treasury of Magick a Book a Gem a Magical Horn which being had any one may easily if he will make himself the Monarch of the world But Judaeus chused rather to live among Gods until the judgment before the transitory good of this world and his heart is so blind that he understandeth nothing of the God of heaven and earth or thinketh more but enjoyeth the delights of things immortal to his own eternal destruction And he may be easier called up than the Angel of Plotinus in the Temple of Isis. Aphor. 32. In like manner also the Romans were taught by the Sibyls books and by that means made themselves the Lords of the world as histories witness But the Lords of the Prince of a Kingdom do bestow the lesser Magistracies He therefore that desireth to have a lesser office or dignity let him magically call a noble of the Prince and his desires shall be ful●●lled Aphor. 33. But he who coveteth contemptible dignities as riches alone let him call the Prince of riches or one of his Lords and he shall obtain his desire in that kind whereby he would grow rich either in earthly goods or merchandize or with the gifts of Princes or by the study of Metals or Chymistry as he produceth any president of growing rich by these means he shall obtain his desire therein Aphor. 34. All manner of evocation is of the same kind and form and this way was familiar of old time to the Sibyls and chief Priests This in our time through ignorance and impiety is totally lost and that which remaineth is depraved with infinite lies and superstitions Aphor. 35. The human understanding is the only effecter of all wonderful works so that it may be joined to any Spirit and being joined she produceth what ●he will Therefore we are carefully to proceed in Magick lest that Syrens and other ●onsters deceive us which likewise do desire the society of the human soul. ●et the Magician carefully hide himself al●●ys under the wings of the most High lest h● off●r himself to be devoured of the roaring Lion 〈◊〉 they who desire e●rthly things do very hard●y escape ●he shares of the ●evil The sixth Septinary Aphor. 36. Care is to be taken that experiments be not mixed with experiments but that every one be only simple and several for God and Nature have ordained all things to a certain and appointed end so that for examples sake they who perform cures with the most simple herbs and roots do cure most happily of all And in this manner in Constellations Words and Characters Stones and such like do lie hid the greatest influences or virtues in deed which are instead of a miracle So also are words which being pronounced do forthwith cause creatures both visible invisible to yield obedience as well creatures of this our world as of the watery airy subterranean and Olympick supercelestial and infernal and also the divine Therefore simplicity is chiefly to be studied the knowledge of such simples is to be sought for from God otherwise by no other means or experience they can be found out Aphor. 37. And let all lots have their place decently Order Reason Means are the three things which do easily render all learning as well of the visible as invisible creatures This is the course of Order that some creatures are creatures of the light others of darkness these are subject to vanity because they run headlong into darkness and inthral themselves in eternal punishments for their rebellion Their Kingdom is partly very beautiful in transitory and corruptable things on the one part because it cannot consist without some virtue and great gifts of God and partly most filthy and horrid to be spoken of because it aboundeth with all wickedness and sin idolatry contempt of God blasphemies against the true God and his works worshiping of devils disobedience towards Magistrates seditions homicides robberies tyranny adulteries wicked lusts rapes thefts lies perjuries pride and a covetous desire of rule in this mixture consisteth the Kingdom of darkness but the creatures of the light are filled with eternal truth and with the grace of God and are Lords of the whole world and do reign over the Lords of darkness as the members of Christ. Between these and the other there is a continual war until God shall put an end to their strife by his last judgment Aphor. 38. Therefore Magick
