would know if two fellows shall love one another look if the Lords of the first and the seventh be friends and agreeing then they will love one another but if they be enemies and 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 joyned with an evil Planet 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 efficacie or fortitude in the exaltation of a Planet then 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 Ascendent 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 him And if the Lord of the seventh be with a good Planet and the Lord of the first with a good Planet likewise he shall have some impediment in the way but he will not die And if an evil Planet be with the Lord of the first and a good Planet in the first if he goeth he shall suffer great damage but not death nevertheless he may be grievously wounded And if Saturn be in the first or with the Lord of the first let him not go because some impediment will happen unto him by some man that he will meet And if there be an evil Planet with the Lord of the first or Saturn be in the first or with the Lord of the first he will be wounded with wood or with a stone If Mars and the Dragons Tail be in the first or with the Lord of the first or if there evil Planets in the first or with the Lord of the first he will suffer wounds or death See likewise if there be an evil Planet in the eighth because then death is to be feared And if the Sun be with the Lord of the seventh or in the eighth it signifies that it is ill to go The like judgement is of the seventh and the tenth And if a Question be proposed concerning the event of War see the seventh and the first and their Lords for the first House and his Lord signifies the Querent and the seventh House and his Lord the adversary So that if there be good Planets in the first and evil in the seventh and if the Lord of the first and seventh be evil the Querent shall overcome but if there be an evil Planet with the Lord of the first and an evil Planet in the first and the Lord of the seventh good or * R * in the seventh the Querent shall be overcome or taken or slain And if the Lords of them both be in the first and there be good Planets from the part of the first House unto the end of the House which is the middle of the Question and if evil Planets do possess the other half of the Question that is to say from the seventh unto the end of the twelfth house the adversary shall overcome But if both the Lords shall be in the Ascendent and if they be good from the part of the first and evil from the part of the seventh they shall both suffer great loss but the Querent shall have the better in the end But if the Lord of the Ascendent be in the seventh or in his Question it signifies fortitude of the adversary and if the Lord of the seventh be in the first or in his Question it signifies fortitude of the actor And if the Lord of the Ascendent be in the eighth or with the Lord of the eighth or the Lord of the eighth in the first or with the Lord of the first it signifies the death of the Querent And if the Lord of the seventh be in the second or with his Lord or the Lord of the second in the seventh or with the Lord of the seventh it signifies the death of the enemy If you would know whether War shall continue long or not if mean or meanly if the Lords of the first and the seventh do agree the parties shall be pacified after the War If thou wouldst depart from the place wherein thou art and remove thy self to some other place and if thou wouldst know whether it be better for thee to stay or go or concerning two businesses if thou destrest to know which of them is most expedient for thee to undertake consider the Lords of the first and the second for those places to which thou wouldst go the place wherein thou art and the gain which thou gettest there and the seventh and the eighth and their Lords for the place to which thou wouldst go and the gain which thou mayst get there and those places chuse whose Lords are the better or joyned to the better Planets Or otherwise behold the Lord of the Ascendent and the Moon which if they be separated from evil Planets and joyned to good and fortunate Planets it is better for thee to go from the place where thou art then to stay there and to do what business soever thou hast in thy minde And if the Lord of the Ascendent and the Moon be separated from the Fortunes and joyned to evil Planets then it is not good for thee to remove thy self nor to do thy business Or thus See the Moon and if the Planet from which she is separated be better then that to whom she is joyned do not remove and if the Planet which she is joyned to be better then that from which she is separated then go Questions of the eighth House COncerning any man or woman if you would know what kinde of death they shall die see if Leo Scorpio † R. † Mars be in the eighth the party shall die by a beast And if Saturn be in the eighth or with the Lord of the eighth in Scorpio Cancer or Pisces he shall die in water And if an evil Planet be in the eighth or with the Lord of the eighth or if Mars or the Dragons Tayl be there he shall die by fire iron or of a fever And

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 Physitian according to Aristotle Plato Ptolomy Euclides Hippocrates and Galen 7. To be a Divine according to the Bible and Schooles which all writers of divinity both old and new have taught Aphor. 25. We have already declared what a secret is the kindes and species thereof it remaineth now to shew how we may attain to know those things which we desire The true and onely 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 If you will do the will of my Father which is in heaven ye are truely my disciples and we will come unto you and make our abode with you If you draw these seven places of Scripture from the letter unto the Spirit or into action thou canst not erre but shalt attain to the desired bound thou shalt not erre from the mark and God himself by his holy Spirit will teach thee true and profitable things he will give also his ministring Angels unto thee to be thy companions helpers and teachers of all the secrets of the world and he will command every creature to be obedient unto thee so that cheerfully rejoycing thou maist say with the Apostles That the Spirits are obedient unto thee so that at length thou shalt be certain of the greatest thing of all That thy name is written in Heaven Aphor. 26. There is another way which is more common that secrets may be revealed unto thee also when thou art unwitting thereof either by God or by Spirits which have secrets in their power or by dreams or by strong imaginations and impressions or by the constellation of a nativity by celestial knowledge After this manner are made heroick men such as there are very many and all learned men in the world Plato Aristotle Hippocrates Galen Euclide Archimedes Hermes Trismegistus the father of secrets with Theophrastus Paracelsus all which men had in themselves all the vertues of secrets Hitherto also are referred Homer Hesiod Orpheus Pythagoras but these had not such gifts of secrets as the former To this are referred the Nymphes and sons of Melusina and Gods of the Gentiles Achilles Aeneas Hercules also Cyrus Alexander the great Julius Caesar Lucullus Sylla Marius It is a Canon That every one know his own Angel and that he obey him according to the Word of God and let him beware of the snares of the evil Angel lest he be involved in the calamities of Brute and Marcus Antonius To this refer the book of Jovianus Pontanus of Fortune and his Eutiches The third way is diligent and hard labor without which no great thing can be obtained from the divine Deity worthy admiration as it is said Tu nihil invita dices faciésve Minerva Nothing canst thou do or say against Minerva's will We do detest all evil Magicians who make themselves associates with the devils with their unlawful superstitions and do obtain and effect some things which God permitteth to be done instead of the punishment of the devils So also they do other evil acts the devil being the author as the Scriptures testifie of Judas To these are referred all idolaters of old and of our age and abusers of Fortune such as the heathens are full of And to these do appertain all Charontick evocation of Spirits as the work of Saul with the woman and Lucanus prophesie of the deceased souldier concerning the event of the Pharsalian war and the like Aphor. 27. Make a Circle with a center A which is B. C. D. E. At the East let there be B. C. a square At the North C. D. At the west D. E. And at the South E. D. Divide the several quadrants into seven parts that there may be in the whole 28 parts and let them be again divided into four parts that there may be 112 parts of the Circle and so many are the true secrets to be revealed And this Circle in this maner divided is the seal of the secrets of the world which they draw from the onely center A that is from the invisible God unto the whole creature The Prince of the Oriental secrets is resident in the middle and hath three Nobles on either side every one whereof hath four under him and the Prince himself hath four appertaining unto him And in this manner the other princes and nobles have their quadrants of secrets with their four secrets But the Oriental secret is the study of all wisdome The West of strength The South of tillage The North of more rigid life So that the Eastern secrets are commended to be the best the Meridian to be mean and the East and North to be lesser The use of this seal of secrets is that thereby thou maist know whence the Spirits or Angels are produced which may teach the secrets delivered unto them from God But they have names taken from their offices and powers according to the gift which God hath severally distributed to every one of them One hath the power of the sword another of the pestilence and another of inflicting famine upon the people as it is ordained by God Some are destroyers of Cities as those two were who were sent to overthrow Sodom and Gomorrha and the places adjacent examples whereof the holy Scripture witnesseth Some are the watch-men over Kingdoms others the keepers of private persons and from thence any one may easily form their names in his own language so that he which will may ask a physical Angel mathematical or philosophical or an Angel of civil wisdom or of supernatural or natural wisdome or for any thing whatsoever and let him ask seriously with a great desire of his mind and with faith and constancy and without doubt that which he asketh he shall receive from the Father and God of all Spirits This faith surmounteth all seals and bringeth them

do lie hid the greatest influences or vertues in deed which are in stead of a miracle So also are words which being pronounced do forthwith cause creatures both visible and invisible to yeild obedience aswell creatures of this our world as of the warry aery subterranean and Olympick supercelestial and infernal and also the divine Therefore simplicity is chiefly to be studied and the knowledge of such simples is to be sought for from God otherwise by no other meanes or experience they can be found out Aphor. 37. And let all lots have their place decently Order Reason and Means are the three things which do easily render all learning aswell 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 in●o darkness and inthrall themselves in eternal punishments for their rebellion Their Kingdome is partly very beautiful in transitory and corruptible things on the one part because it cannot consist without some vertue 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 worshipping of devils disobedience towards Magistrates seditions homicides robberies tyranny adulteries wicked lusts rapes thefts lyes perjuries pride and a covetous desire of rule in this mixture consisteth the kingdome 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 untill God shall put an end to their strife by his last judgment Aphor. 38. Therefore Magick is twofold in its first division the one is of God which he bestoweth on the creatures of light the other also is of God but it is the gift which he giveth unto the creatures of darkness and this is also two-fold the one is to a good end as when the Princes of darkness are compelled to do good unto the creatures God enforcing them the other is for an evil end when God permitteth such to punish evil persons that magically they are deceived to destruction or also he commandeth such to be cast out into destruction The second division of Magick is that it bringeth to pass some works with visible instruments through visible things and it effecteth other works with invisible instruments by invisible things and it acteth other things aswel with mixed means as instruments and effects The third division is There are some things which are brought to pass by invocation of God alone this is partly Prophetical and Philosophical and partly as it were Theophrastical Other things there are which by reason of the ignorance of the true God are done with the Princes of Spirits that his desires may be fulfilled such is the work of the Mercurialists The fourth division is That some exercise their Magick with the good Angels in stead of God as it were descending down from the most high God such was the Magick of Baalim Another Magick is that which exerciseth their actions with the chief of the evil Spirits such were they who wrought by the minor Gods of the heathens The fifth division is That some do act with Spirits openly and face to face which is given to few others do work by dreams and other signes which the ancients took from their auguries and sacrifices The sixth division is That some work by immortal creatures others by mortal creatures as Nymphs Satyrs and such like inhabitants of other elements Pigmies c. The seventh division is That the Spirits do serve some of their own accord without art others they will scarce attend being called by art Among these species of Magick that is the most excellent of all which dependeth upon God alone The second Them whom the Spirits do serve faithfully of their own accord The third is that which is the property of Christians which dependeth on the power of Christ which he hath in heaven and earth Aphor. 39. There is a seven-fold preparation to learn the Magick Art The first is to meditate day and night how to attain to the true knowledge of God both by his word revealed from the foundation of the world as also by the seal of the creation and of the creatures and by the wonderful effects which the visible and invisible creatures of God do shew forth Secondly it is requisite that a man descend down into himself and chiefly study to know himself what mortal part he hath in him and what immortal and what part is proper to himself and what diverse Thirdly That he learn by the immortal part of himself to worship love and fear the eternal God and to adore him in Spirit and Truth and with his mortal part to do those things which he knoweth to be acceptable to God and profitable to his neighbours These are the three first and chiefest precepts of Magick wherewith let every one prepare himself that covets to obtain true Magick or divine wisdome that he may be accounted worthy thereof and one to whom the Angelical creatures willingly do service not occultly onely but also manifestly and as it were face to face Fourthly Whereas every man is vigilant to see to what kinde of life he shall be called from his mothers womb that every one may know whether he be born to Magick and to what species thereof which every one may perceive easily that readeth these things and by experience may have success therein for such things and such gifts are not given but onely to the low and humble In the fifth place we are to take care that we understand when the Spirits are assisting us in undertaking the greatest business and he that understands this it is manifest that he shall be made a Magician of the ordination of God that is such a person who useth the ministery of the Spirits to bring excellent things to pass Here as for the most part they sin either through negligence ignorance or contempt or by too much superstition they offend also by ingratitude towards God whereby many famous men have afterwards drawn upon themselves destruction they sin also by rashness and obstinacy and also when they do not use their gifts for that honour of God which is required and do prefer 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Sixthly The Magician had need of faith and taciturnity especially that he disclose no secret which the Spirit hath forbid him as he commanded Daniel to seal some things that is not to declare them in publick so as it was not lawfull for Paul to speak openly of all things which he saw in a vision No man will believe how much is contained in this one precept Seventhly In him that would be a Magician there is required the greatest justice that he undertake nothing that is
