THE LORD OF HOSTS HATH
SAID: “Let the World have its time, and let there be Keepers, Watchers, and Princes
placed over it, for years, months and days.”
Hence it plainly appeareth that the world was not
committed to their charge from the Creation, but afterwards, and in diverse
times and offices both to God and Man. Now we are to understand that there are
FOUR OVERSEERS -ANGELS over the world whom the Eternal Power in His providence
hath placed against the usurping, blasphemous misuse and stealth of the wicked
and great enemies and tempters of man, the devils. Thus do the Divine Ones
restrain the wicked.
Each of these Four Angelic Powers is a mighty Prince
and Angel of the Lord, and they are set by his Divine decree, as chief
Overseers over the several and respective parts of the world; viz: East, West,
North and South.
And to them belong four characters, being tokens of
the presence of the Son of God, by whom all things were made, in the Creation
and are the natural marks of Holiness, and unto which belong four Angels
severally, and before each one of these great Angelic Princes, are borne 3
banners, whereon are displayed 3 Great Names of God, comprehending 3, 4, and 5 which in all are 12. And these
12 Great Names of God govern all creatures upon Earth,
both visible and invisible.
Each one of these 4 Great Angelic Princes hath 5
Presidential Angels or Guardian Princes attending him, under whom are 6 Angels
called Seniors which St. John remembered (who, as their officers are, etc. )
judge the Government of their mighty Angelic King, and fulfill the will of God,
as it is written, etc.
Under which Seniors are 4 Presidential Good Angels who
are depositors of the commands of those that are the Superior Governors of the
4 Principal Angels, or quarters: East, West, North, and South, over which they
are severally and respectively constituted and sit etc., etc.
Under whom again are many and numberless Aerial
ministering subservient spirits of several offices, both good and bad, all
which shall be further explained in the opening and exemplifying of the
Tablets, etc., which is as followeth:
Here we have 4 Tables or Quadrangles, which are but
one general table, only divided into 4 parts, East, West, North and South. In
the center between these 4 Quadrangles is another little table joined cornerly
to them all, and which serveth to unite the several parts of them together,
according as they are to be diversely referred, as shall be shewed hereafter,
etc.

Each single Quadrangle table containeth 12 Squares
athwart and 13 downwards, the two middle lines downwards that are of black
letters enclosed also within black ruled lines, and the middle line going
athwart that again, composed also of black letters, enclosed between two black
ruled lines and standing crosswise in the middle of the two perpendicular or
upright lines, make up the name of the Mighty Angelic King and 3 Names of God,
displayed in the Regal Banners borne before Him, being the arms of the Ensign,
and the names of the 6 Angelic Seniors, governing in that Angle or Quarter of
the compass which they are set over.
In every Lesser Angle of every Quadrangular Table
standeth also black letters enclosed within black ruled lines crosswise, in
the form of a crucifix, out of which are collected the names of God that call forth
and constrain those Angels and Spirits both good and bad, that are to be
gathered out of that particular Lesser Angle, belonging and serving to that
Quarterly Angle or Table.
The particular exemplification of all is as follows,
viz: As in the East Quadrangle or quarterly Table (which is the first
Quadrangle in the top towards the left hand). The middle upward or
perpendicular black lines, the first of them from the top downwards to the
bottom hath these 13 letters: 1.
z.
i. a. x. o. a. a. V. T. o. T. a. r.
The second which is the next upright or perpendicular
line to it from the top downwards to the bottom hath these 13 letters.
n.
A.d. r. o.
m. T. h. i. p.o. t.
g. a.
The middle black line standing crosswise athwart these
two upright or perpendicular black lines hath these 12 letters:
o.r. o. i.
b. a. h. a. o. z. p. i.
Being all added together and set crosswise in order as
they stand in the Quadrangular Table, stand thus, as in the annexed form is
represented, and so make the similitude of a cross.
There is ‘B’, the 5th letter in the middle black line
athwart, and ‘A’, the 6th letter in the perpendicular line counting from the
top downwards and ‘T’, the 6th letter in the 2nd perpendicular line counting
from the top downwards and ‘A’, the 5th letter from the right hand to the left
in the said middle athwart line, and ‘I’, the 6th letter ascending from the
lowermost part of the second perpendicular line upwards, and ‘V’, the 6th
letter ascending from the lowermost part of the first upright line, standing
thus, into which six letters being added together put the letter ‘A’ or ‘H’,
which two letters are concentrated with the aforesaid six letters (or either of
them serveth) and these 7 or 8 letters make up the name ‘Bataivh, pronounced
BATAIVAH. Which letters, set together as they stand in the Table, and they
stand heteromaces or centrally therein, thus:
|
|
a
|
T
|
|
|
b |
a |
h |
a |
|
|
v
|
i |
|
And this is the true Name
of the Mighty Angelical King, Watchman, and Observer of the East Angle or
Quarter of the World, etc.
Moreover, divide
the middle crossline into 3 parts from the left hand unto the right, and divide
it into 3, 4, and 5 letters, and they
will make up these three words: ORO IBAH AOZPI, which are the 3 great Names of
God, borne on the 3 Banners of the Arms of the Ensign belonging to the Great
and Mighty Angel BATAIVAH, King and Governor of the East Angle.
The Names of the
Six Angelic Seniors ruling in the East Angle under the Great Prince BATAIVAH
are thus collected.
The 6th letter of the middle transverse or cross line
going athwart the two upright black lines is ‘A’, and the letters from the
righthand to the left, following it, as it were, backwards are ‘b’, ‘i’, ‘o’,
‘r’, ‘o’, which maketh the name ABIRO, and it is the name of the First Angelic Senior, made up of 6 letters,
and if the letter ‘H’, which following the letter ‘A’, and if the 7th letter of
the said transverse line, be added to and set before the other 6 letters, it
maketh the name HABIORO, and is the name of the said first Angelical Senior
comprehended of 7 letters.
Then take the aforesaid letter ‘A’, again (being the
6th letter in the middle transverse black line as aforesaid) and a second
upward from thence to the top or uppermost letter of the first upright black
line, and they are:
z
‘A’, ‘a’, ‘o’, ‘x’, ‘a’, ‘i’, ‘f’ making the word:
AAOXAIF which is the name of the Second Angelical
Senior.
Then again, take the letter ‘H’, which is the 7th
letter in the said middle transverse line from the left to the right, and
ascend from there to the uppermost letter in the 2nd perpendicular line, and
the letters are: ‘H’, ‘T’, ‘m’, ‘o’, ‘r’, ‘d’, ‘A’, which maketh the word
HeTMORDA, and this is the Third Angelical
Senior.
Then again take the letter ‘H’, the 7th in the middle
transverse line from the left to the right, and the letters following it
forwards, and they are:
‘h’, ‘a’, ‘o’, ‘z’, ‘p’, ‘i’, which maketh the word:
HAOZPI, and is the name of the fourth Angelical Senior, composed of 6 letters,
and if the letter ‘A’, that standeth just next before the letter ‘H’, be added
thereunto and set before the other six letters, then it maketh the name:
AHAOZPI, which is the name of the Fourth Angelical
Senior, composed of 7 letters.
Again take the said letter ‘h’, the seventh letter of
the middle transverse line, and descend from thence downwards to the bottom or last
letter in the second perpendicular line, and the letters are: ‘h’, ‘i’, ‘p’,
‘o’, ‘t’, ‘g’, ‘a’, making the word HIPOTGA, which is the name of the Fifth Angelical Senior.
And then again take the letter ‘A’, being the 6th
letter in the middle transverse line from the left to the right, and from
thence also descend downwards to the lowermost letter in the first upright line
which are these: ‘a’, ‘V’, ‘T’, ‘o’, ‘T’, ‘a’, ‘r’, which maketh the word
AVTOTAR, which is the name of the Sixth and
last Angelical Senior ruling in the East Angle.
The Name of this Great Angelical and mighty Angel, or
King of the East BATAIVAH, upon whom all the Angels and Spirits of the four
lesser Angles in the Quadrangle or the East attend and give obedience, calleth
out the fore-recited 6 Seniors whose offices are to give Scientiam Rerum, Humanarum et Judicium, according to the nature of
their parts, as in the East after one manner, in the West after another, and so
of the rest, according to their several gubernations.4
Now for the 16 Servient Angels next in order under the
6 Angelical Seniors in this Eastern Quadrangle, their names are to be collected
and composed out of each lesser Angle attendant in the Greater Angle, thus: In
the uppermost Lesser Angle in the left hand of this Quadrangular tablet there
is a small cross like form of black letters, whose perpendicular or upright
line reacheth from the top of the said Lesser Angle to the middle black
transverse line that goeth athwart that Quadrangle, and containeth six letters
from the top downwards, which are: ‘i’, ‘d’, ‘o’, ‘i’, ‘g’, ‘o’, making the
name IDOIGO, the which is one name of God which is used to call forth the
subservient Good Angels, who are attendant next in order, under the 16 Angels
next succeeding the 6 Seniors according to their graduation.
The transverse line going athwart that upright line in
this Lesser Angle, being the uppermost line but one os of 5 letters, and they are these: ‘a’, ‘r’, ‘d’, ‘z’, ‘a’, making the
name: ARDZA, which is another name of God. Now as the benevolent Angels serving
in this Lesser Angle under the aforesaid 16 are ruled by and called forth by
this name IDOIGO so by the name ARDZA they do what they are commanded, all
which shall be further explained in exemplification hereafter following in
their proper places.
This annexed example is the form of the black letters
as they stand crosswise in the uppermost lesser Angle of the quadrangle, over
the lesser transverse line are 4 red letters which are: ‘r’, ‘Z’, ‘1’, ‘a’,
setting aside or leaving out the black letter ‘i’ standing in the midst between
them, and it maketh the name: uRZLA, and this is the substance of the name of
the first of those 16 angels, before spoken of, bearing rule next under the 6
Seniors in the Eastern Quadrangle. Then take away the first of these red
letters which is ‘r’, and make it the last, and it maketh the name ZLAR or
ZodeLAR (for ‘Z’ extended is to be pronounced Zod) which maketh the second name
of the aforesaid 16 angels.
Again, make the 1St letter of the 2nd name the ‘Z’ the
last of the third name, and the letters will be: LARZ, and it maketh the name:
LARZod, which is the name of the 3rd of the 16 angels aforesaid.
Then again, by making the 1st of these 4 letters of
this last name the last letter thereof, then will the letters be: ARZL, which
maketh the name ARZeL, and it is the fourth of the 16 Angels. And these last
are the 4 Angels bearing rule under the 6 Seniors in this first Lesser Angle
serving to the Greater Eastern Quadrangle. And as to the names of these 4
Angels, governing in this Lesser Angle, serving to the Greater Quadrangle or
East Quarter of the Table, and thus collected and gathered together, so are the
names of the other 12 Angels set as governors and superiors over the 3 other
Lesser Angles subservient to this Quadrangle.
As for example: The second Lesser Succeeding Angle of
this Eastern Quarter is that in the right hand above, next to this here above
explained, and hath in its upright or perpendicular black line these 6 letters:
(1/i), ‘L’, ‘a’, ‘c’, ‘z’, ‘a’, making the name ILACZA (or LLACZA) which is
also a Great Name of God, the transverse line whereof hath these letters: ‘p’,
‘a’, ‘L’, ‘a’, ‘m’, which being set together as they are in the Quadrangular
Table, stand as in the annexed exemplification is herewith affixed.
The four red letters over the black transverse line of
this Eastern Quadrangle are: ‘U’ (or ‘y’) ‘t’, ‘p’, ‘a’, making up the name:
UTepA,which is the name of the 5th of the aforesaid 16 Angels, and the first of
the 4 Superior Angels set over the second Lesser Angle, and governing therein
next under the 6 Seniors. Then, as before, in the example of the first Lesser
Angle, take away the first letter of these 4, and make it the last of the name.
Then it will be TePAY (or TePAU), which is the name of the 6th of the 16 Angels
aforesaid, and the 2nd of the Great Benevolent Angels governing this second
Lesser Angle.
Again, take away the 1st letter of the 2nd name and
make it the last, then it will be: PAYT (or PAUT), which is the name of the 7th
of the aforementioned Angels, and the 3rd of the Benevolent Great Angels set
over this second Lesser Angle. Likewise, take away the first letter of this
last name, and make it the last, where it will make the name: AYTeP (or AUTP),
which is the name of the 8th of the aforementioned 16 Angels, and of the 4th
Governing Angle, set over this second Lesser Angle.
The other eight Angels names are to be collected after
the same manner out of the other two Lesser Angels serving in the Eastern
Quadrangle. That in the left hand underneath being the third Lesser Angle
successively next following to the second, being that Lesser Angel on the right
hand above, as is aforesaid, and that on the right hand underneath being the
fourth and last of the Lesser Angles serving unto this Quarterly Great Angle.
Every one of the aforesaid four Angels whose names are
thus gathered out of every Lesser Angle of the Greater Quadrangle wherein they
are contained, are Great and Benevolent Angels, and bear rule and governance
over those several angels successively. Under whom also are several benevolent
angels, but far more inferior in power, yet of the same nature as their
superiors are, under whom again are many Angels and Spirits of various
different natures, both Good and Bad, whose offices are also manifold and
various, and so gradually in their orders according as Divine Authority hath
decreed and appointed both as to Good and Bad effects and purposes, as for
example:
Those Benevolent Angels whose offices are of Physic,
as they by their temperance and benevolence cure diseases, and by their
splendour and celestial irradiations, preserve the Elemental vigour and
Radical humidity of things to the prolongation of Life and Health, according
to the nature of their parts, etc., so the malevolent and Evil spirits whose
names are collected out of the same lesser Angle from whence the good Angels
names are gathered, of the aforesaid officers are opposite in nature to them as
to their malignity and envy of the prosperity of things. For, instead of curing
Diseases, they cause them, and when permitted by the superior powers do thereby
mortify and destroy things, and by their more gross, Evil, Terrestrial, and
poisonous rays (being comparatively the same as the Aerial vapors of the Earth)
would in fact, mortify and destroy the Elemental vigour and radical moisture of
things, so that if their Envy were not restrained and bridled, nothing in this
world could be preserved. But of this matter more shall be explained in its
proper place.
As for example, the names of several Benevolent Angels
subservient to those Superior Angels sitting over and governing in each Lesser
Angle as follows. In the first Lesser Angle of the East Quadrangle, and under that
black transverse line, are 4 lines of red letters, and leaving out the black
letters in the middle upright line going between them, stands in the Lesser
Angle of the Quadrangle as in annexed example, is represented the first line
whereof hath these 4 letters: ‘C’, ‘z’, ‘n’, ‘s’, making the name CehZodeNeS,
which is the name of one Inferior Benevolent Angel serving in this first Lesser
Angle of the East Quadrangle.
Then, next under that the line hath these 4 letters:
‘T’, ‘o’, ‘T’, ‘t’, making the name: TOTeT, which is the name of another
subservient Angel serving in this said Lesser Angle. The third line hath these
4 letters: ‘S’, ‘i’, ‘a’, ‘s’, making the name SIAS which is the name of
another good Angel subservient to this said Lesser Angle.
The fourth, last line of this Lesser [Angle], hath
these letters:’F’, ‘m’, ‘n’, ‘d’, making the name: eFeMeNDe, which is the name
of another benevolent Angel subservient to this aforesaid Lesser Angle in the
East Quadrangle.
The subservient good Angels of the 2nd Lesser Angle,
thereof, to be selected in the same manner as before exemplified as thus,
under the black transverse line of this second Lesser Angle, are also 4 lines
of red letters, and leaving out the black letters that stand between them in
the middle upright line, stand in this second Lesser Angle as is set forth in
the tablet.
The first line of which 4 red letters are these: ‘o’,
‘Y’, ‘u’, ‘b’, making the name OYUBe, which is the name of one of the Inferior
Benevolent Angels serving to this Lesser Angle.
The next or second line hath these four letters: ‘P’,
‘a’, ‘o’, ‘c’, which is another name of a subservient good angel, making the
name: PAOC.
The third line hath these 4 letters: ‘r’, ‘b’, ‘n’, ‘h’, making the name: uRBeNeH, which is the name of another benevolent Angel serving to this Lessor Angle. The fourth line hath these 4 letters: ‘d’, ‘i’, ‘r’, ‘1’, making the name: DIRL, which is another name of a benevolent Angel serving this Lesser Angle.
The two other Lesser Angles below these two here
explained have also the like subservient good angels attending them as those
whose names are also to be collected there - out after the same manner as the
former is, for their natures and offices and for calling them forth to visible
apparition and verbal community shall be showed hereafter. And likewise of the
malignant evil envious spirits, whose names are also to be collected out of
each particular Inferior or Lesser Angle as they are severally and respectively
subject and serving to the Greater Quadrangle, how to gather their names, and
the calling them forth, etc., together with matters of concernment, some select
consequences, and also what use is to be made of all. In like manner shall be
set forth and explained hereafter, in their proper places, as shall follow in
method.
First, as to the small Table, standing in the center
between the 4 Greater Quadrangles and the use thereof. It is called the Tablet
of Union, and showeth how to join such particular letters as are therein, to
several particular names and letters in each of the Lesser Angles contained in
each of the Greater Angles of the Table in general for the collecting and
making up of other particular for such proper select material and intricate
purpose, as they are to be attributed and referred to exemplification, whereof
followeth:
The first line containeth these letters: ‘e’, ‘x’,
‘a’, ‘r’, ‘p’, and serve to bind the 4 Lesser Angles of the East Quadrangle
together.
The Second line hath these letters: ‘h’, ‘c’, ‘o’,
‘m’, ‘a’, which serveth to bind the 4 Lesser Angles of the Second, or West
Quadrangle together.
The Third line hath these letters: ‘n’, ‘a’, ‘n’, ‘t’, ‘a’, which serve to bind the 4
Lesser Angles of the third or North Quadrangle together.
The Fourth and last line hath these letters: ‘b’, ‘i’,
‘t’, ‘o’, ‘m’, and serveth to bind
the 4 Lesser Angles of the 4th or South Quadrangle together, and note, the same
that stretcheth from the left to the right, must also stretch from the right to
the left. Observe also that the letters joining those names which may be put
before the names of the 4 Angels sitting over and governing in each one of
every particular Lesser Angle of the four greater Quadrangles, as well from
the right as the left, is the name of God, whereby those Angels are called and
do appear. As for example, the first
line of this small Tablet of Union is ‘e’. The name of the first Angel sitting
over the first Lesser Angle of the East Quadrangle is (V) rzla, Take away the
letter (v), being the first letter of pronouncing the name, and put instead
thereof the said letter ‘E’ thereto before it, the name will be ERZLA, which is
the name of God which governeth and calleth forth the Angel VRZLA, and also the
three other Angels that are set over the first Lesser Angle of the East
Quadrangle. The name of the First Angel sitting over the Second Lesser Angle is
UTePA (or YTPA). Then, by adding the aforesaid letter ‘E’ thereto before it,
the name will be EUTePA (or EYTPA), which is the name of God governing those
four Angels sitting over the Second Lesser Angle of the East Quadrangle by
which they are called forth, and do appear.
The name of the first Angel sitting over the third
Lesser Angle is: CeNBAR, before which the aforesaid letter ‘E’ being added,
maketh it: ECeNBAR, which is the name of God governing those four Angels
whereby they are called forth and do appear.
Then again, the name of the first Angel sitting over the
fourth Lesser Angle of the East Quadrangle is: XeGeZod when, by adding the said
letter ‘E’ before it, maketh it: EXeGeZod which is the name of the God that
governeth, and whereby these 4 Angels are called forth and do appear. And thus
are gathered the 4 great names of God governing those 16 Angels bearing rule
under the 6 Angelical Seniors in this Eastern Quadrangle, and whereby they are
called forth and do appear as aforesaid.
There are four letters left of this first line of this
said Tablet of Union, which are: ‘X’, ‘a’, ‘r’, ‘p’. Every name sounding of
three letters beginning out of the first line, and out of these 4 letters, is
the name of a Devil or Evil Angel, as well from the right as from the left,
excepting the line containing the names of every one of the 4 Angels sitting
over and governing in every Lesser Angle in each one of the four Greater
Quadrangles which are the 16 great benevolent Angels mentioned next in power
under the 6 Seniors in each Quadrangle, severally and respectively being the
uppermost lines over every transverse black line of the Lesser Angles. They are
not to be made use of herein because they have no participation with evil
spirits, etc.
As for example, thus: The four lines that are under
the transverse blackline of the first Lesser Angle in the East Quadrangle, the
names of the Good subservient Angels are only to be made use of therein.
The first letters are: ‘c’, ‘z’, then take the letter
‘X’ in the Tablet of Union, and add it before them, it will make up the name
XCeZ, which is the name of an Evil spirit. The two next letters against ‘Cz’ on
the right hand, the other side of the upright black line going between are:
‘n’, ‘s’, making the word NeS, (or eNeS). Then by adding the said letter ‘X’
thereto beforeit, it maketh XeNeS. which is another name of an evil spirit, and
if the name XCeZ be made backward from right to the left then it will be
ZedoCXe which is another name of an Evil Spirit. So likewise if the name
XeNeS, be made backward as aforesaid, then it will be: Es-Enex, which is the
name of a Devil.
The next two letters below ‘c’, ‘z’, are “T’, ‘0’, and
the next letter to the letter ‘X’ in the Table of Union is ‘A’, which being
added to the two said letters T.O. from the left to the right maketh the word:
ATO, but being added thereto from the right to the left, then it will be: AOT,
which are the names also of an Evil Spirit or Angel of an Infernal as well as
an Aerial nature.
The two next letters against ‘T’, ‘0’, and the Right
hand side of the upright black line are: ‘T’, ‘t’, the letter ‘A’ being added
thereto before, from the left to the right, maketh the name: ATeT, and being
added thereto from the right to the left as it happeneth, maketh also the same
name.
The two first letters in the third line under the
black transverse line of the first Lesser Angle of the East Quadrangle are:
‘S’, ‘I’, the third letter of the 1st line in the Tablet of Union (setting
aside the letter ‘C’ being the 1St letter of the line which belongeth only to
the 16 Angels, sitting as governors over these four Lesser Angles, or rather of
every four lines of red letters over every 4 black transverse line in each
Lesser Angle of this East Quadrangle), and it is ‘R’, but adding it to the two
letters: ‘S’, ‘I’, before from the left to the right, make the name: Re Si, but
added thereunto from the right to the left maketh the name: R.I.E.S. which are
the names likewise of two evil spirits.
The two letters against ‘S’, ‘I’, on the other side of
the black upright line are: ‘A’, ‘5’. The letter ‘R’, added thereunto from the
right to the left maketh the name: ReSA, but being adde’d thereto from the left
to the right maketh the name: RAS. The 1st two letters in the last of the four
lines under the overthward or transverse line aforesaid of this first angle of
the East Quadrangle are: ‘f’, ‘m’. The last letter in this first line of the
Table of Union is ‘P’, which being added to the aforesaid two letters from the
left to the right maketh the name: PeFeM. But if it be added thereto from the
right to the left, then it maketh the name: PeMeF, which are also the names of
two evil angels or devils. The other two letters against them on the other side
of the black upright line are: ‘n’, ‘d’, to which add the letter ‘P’ before,
from the left to the right, and it maketh the name:peNDe, but if the said letter
‘P’ be added thereto from the right to the left then it will make the name:
PeDeN, which are likewise the names of 2 devils. And thus are gathered the
names of certain evil spirits, which are likewise (the names) collected after
the same manner out of all the other angles respectively in the Table, having
only to observe that the first line in the Table of Union belongeth to the 1St
or East Quadrangle. The 2nd line thereof to the Second or West Quadrangle, and
the third line thereof belongeth to the Third or North Quadrangle, and the 4th
line serveth to the fourth or South Quadrangle.
And the first letter of every line belong properly to
the red line sitting over each of the lesser transverse or cross black lines in
every Lesser Angle of that Quadrangle unto which the line is referred, as is
aforesaid in the explanation of four Angels sitting over the first Lesser
Angle of the East Quadrangle.
The other four letters in each line of the Table of Union
serveth to collect, join together, and make up several names, both of good and
bad Angels out of the 4 subservient lines, which are the red lines under the
transverse black line of every Lesser Angle as hath been shown in the foregoing
example. We will give you one exemplification more, by which it will be
sufficient to understand the whole Table. That is as follows: As to the 3rd or
North Quadrangle, the name of the 1st Angel sitting over and governing in the
1st Angle thereof is: BOZA, Then, taking the
first letter of the 3rd line in the Table of Union,
which is: ‘N’, and placing it before the name of the said Angel it maketh the
word: eNBOZA, which is the great name of God that governeth, and by which these
4 great and Benevolent Angels are to be called forth to visible appearance. The
name of the first Angel sitting over the 2nd Lesser Angle of the 3rd or North
Quadrangle is: PHRA (or PHaRA). Then by adding the letter: ‘N’ thereto before
the said name, then it will be: eNPHRA (or eNPHaRA), which is the Great Name of
God that governeth those 4 Angels serving over the 2nd Lesser Angle of the 3rd
or North Quadrangle and by which they are called forth and do appear. The name
of the first Angel sitting over the 3rd Lesser Angle serving this North Quadrangle
is: ReOAN. Then add the said letter ‘N’ before it, and make it NaROAN, which is
the great name of God that governeth those 4 Angels sitting over that Lesser
Angle, and whereby they are called forth and do appear.
Then again the name of the 1st Angel sitting over the
4th Lesser Angle serving the North Quadrangle is: TAOM. Then by adding the
letter ‘N’ before it, it maketh the name: eNTAOM, which is the Great Name of
God that governeth the four Angels sitting over this fourth Lesser Angle of the
Third or North Quadrangle, and by which they are also called forth and do
appear. So it is of the rest.
The first letter of the vertical line of the Table of
Union added before the name of the first Angel sitting over each four Lesser
Angels serving the Greater Quadrangle wherein they are, maketh the name of God
that governeth each of those said four Angels, sitting over every said Lesser
Angle unto which said Quadrangle, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th, each line of the Table
of Union is properly referred as aforesaid. The other four letters of each line
of the Tale of Union serve to the 4 red lines of 4 letters apiece, under the
black cross or transverse lines of every Lesser Angle, and maketh up the names
of several Evil Angels of a terres trial or infernal nature, that are composed
and made up of 3 letters, by adding thereto the first, second, third, or fourth
letter of the line of the Table of Union, being those four letters following
the first.
Every line of the Table containing five letters linear
along, and 4 downwards, every 1St letter belonging properly to the line placed
over every black transverse or cross line in every Lesser Angle, in each
Greater Quadrangle, and the other 4 letters to the 4 red lines placed under the
said transverse lines successively, as they are to be referred and joined one
to another thus.
The fourth line of the Tablet of Union belongeth to
the 4th or South Quadrangle. The 1st letter thereof appertaineth to the 1st
line thereof being ‘B’, that is of the 1st Lesser Angle. And likewise the 1st
line of the 2nd, and so the 1st line of the 3rd, and the 1st line of the 4th
Lesser Angle, serving to the 4th or South Quadrangle, being those lines placed
over the transverse black lines of each Lesser Angle, The four letters
following which are: ‘I’, ‘T’, ‘0’, ‘M’, belonging to the four red lines under
the transverse black line thereof, the first of which 4 letters of Union (and
the 2nd from the 1st) is ‘I’, and belongeth to the 1st red line under the
transverse black line of this first Lesser Angle of the fourth or South
Quadrangle. The 2nd letter (but 3rd from the 1st) is ‘T’, which appertaineth to
the 2nd line. The 3rd letter (and fourth from the 1st) is ‘0’, and this
appertaineth to the third line, the fourth and last letter (but fifth from the 1st)
is ‘M’, and appertaineth to the 4th and last line, subservient in this Lesser
Angle (being the 1st of the 4), serving the 4th and South Quadrangle, the use
thereof has been already partly explained.
Having briefly explained how to collect the name of the
Great and Mighty Angelical King of the East Quadrangle, and of the 3 or Great
Names of God borne on the Banners before him, and of the Six Seniors and of the
16 Angels next under them, placed over every Lesser Angle subservient to this
Greater East Quadrangle, and of some Angels, subservient to them, under whom
are many benevolent Angels of Inferior Orders, the collecting of whose names
are omitted being too tedious to exemplify, since this which hath been already
said before is sufficient, and also how to collect the names of several evil
spirits of terrestrial and infernal natures.
Now shall be showed the method how to invocate and
call them forth to visible appearance.
The Three Great Names of God: ORO, IBAH, AOZPI, govern
the King of the East angle whose name is: BATAIVA, and this name: BATAIVAH
governeth the 6 Seniors, and by whom they are called forth and do appear. The
name of God: eRZLA governeth the 4 Angels placed over the 1st Lesser Angle of
this East Quadrangle. The name of God: EUTePA governeth the 4 Angels placed
over the second Lesser Angle of this East Quadrangle. The name of God: EXeGeZoD
govemeth the 4 Angels placed over the 4th Lesser Angle of this East
Quadrangle. The name of God: ECeNBaR governeth the 4 Angels placed over the 3rd
Lesser Angle of this East Quadrangle.
Then there is the middle black upright or
perpendicular line in this 1St Lesser Angle subservient to the great Quadrangle
of the East, the which hath these 6 Letters, from the top downward to the black
line that goeth across the Quadrangle: IDOIGO, making the name: ARDZA.3• The
Four Subservient Angels that are under the transverse black line of this said
first Lesser Angle are ruled by the name: IDOIGO, and thereby are called forth
and do appear, and by the name: ARDZA do what they are commanded. The like
method is to be observed of the other three Lesser Angles of this East
Quadrangle.
Then for the 2nd or West Quadrangle of the Table, the
3 Great Names of God displayed in Banners and borne before the Great Angel and
Mighty King of this 2nd or West Quadrangle is to be collected out of the middle
transverse black line that go crosswise athwart the Quadrangle, and to be
composed of 3, 4 and 5 Letters, after
the same manner as it before taught in the 1st or East Quadrangle. And so
likewise of the other succeeding North and South Quadrangles.
The three great and powerful names of God governing
the mighty and Angelical monarch of the 2nd or West Quadrangle whose name is:
RAAGJOS (or RAAGIOSeL), are eMPeH, ARSeL, GAIOL, and the Royal High Name
RAAGIOSeL governeth the 6 Seniors, and by which they are called forth and do
appear.
The Name of God: He TAAD (the ‘He’ is the ‘H’ of
HCOMA, the ‘Water Line’ of the Tablet of Union) govemeth the 4 Angels placed over
the 1st Lesser Angle of this second of West Quadrangle.
The Name of God: He TeDIM governeth the 4 Angels
placed over the 2ndLesser Angle of this second or West Quadrangle.
The Name of God: He MAGeL governeth the 4 Angels
placed over the 3rd Lesser Angle of this 2nd or West Quadrangle.
The Name of God: He NLaReX governeth the 4 Angels
placed over the 4th and last Lesser Angle of the 2nd or West Quadrangle of the
Table, and by which name they are called forth and do appear.
Then there is the name of God: OBeGOCA, which are the
6 letters in the upright line of the 1st Lesser Angle in this 2nd and West
Quadrangle, which name ruleth and calleth forth the 4 subservient Angels under
the black transverse line, by the power whereof they do appear.
Then in the transverse line there is the word: AABeCO,
by the efficacy thereof the said 4 subservient Angels do what they are
commanded.
The Name of God: NELAPaR, which are the 6 letters of
the upright black line ruleth the 4 Angels subservient in this second Lesser
Angle, and by the power whereof they are called forth and do appear.
And by the name of God: OMEBeBe, the 5 letters in the transverse line, they
do what they are commanded.
Then there is the Name of God: MALADI, in the upright
line of the 3rd Lesser Angle by which the four subservient Angels herein are
called forth and do appear.
Then there is the Name of God: OLAAD, in the
transverse black line whereby they do what they are commanded.
The Name of God: IAAASDe, which 6 letters in the upright
line of the 4th Lesser Angle of this second and West Quadrangle call forth the
4 subservient Angels in this Angle to visible apparition.
And the Name of God: ATAPA, which are the 5 letters of the black transverse line
powerfully enforceth or constraineth them to do as they are commanded.
After the same manner and method are the other names
of God peculiarly and and particularly to be collected out of the subsequent
North and South Quadrangles by the virtue, power, and efficiency and at the nominating
and pronouncing whereof, all the ministering Angels of Light, celestially
dignified, both subservient and servient, even from the superior to the
inferior orders, under the Great King or supreme head and governor of every
respectively general or quarterly great Angle, according to their Degrees and
Offices, are called forth and moved to visible appearance. And so accordingly
to do what they are commanded as aforesaid. As for the evil spirits, more of
them hereafter.
It is said before that the subservient Angels whose
names are collected out of the four red lines under the black transverse line,
in every Lesser Angle of the Table are next in order (or servients) under the
other Angels whose names are collected out of the red line above the black
transverse line in every Lesser Angle of the Table under which said servients
are many benevolent subservients inferior to them and under whom again are many
legions of assisting Angels, more inferior to them in power and authority. And
likewise many legions of spirits more inferior again to them of several
natures and offices, both good and bad, as originally decreed by Providence,
who settled all things both Celestial, Aerial and Terrestrial gradation, to
serve, and execute his commands according to their orders, officers, natures,
governments and degrees, wherein they are placed, and hence it is affirmed that
Aerial and Elementary spirits are of different and several natures, according
as they were constituted and appointed in their several and respective offices,
places, and orders, by the first and supreme degree of the Highest, in the
observing and fulfilling his decrees and commands, according to his justice and
mercy, and as often times, are the execution of Wrath and vengence yet
worthless when God is pleased to wink at, and pass by our wickedness and to
show mercy. And they oftentimes admonish, forewarn, and watch over us, and
defend us from many dangers and perils, and are benevolent and helpful unto us
in many respects, according to their offices, and are as our necessity
requireth.
As to the evil and malicious spirits beforementioned,
whose names are collected of three letters, by joining thereunto one letter of
the Tablet of Union, to two of those letters in any line of those aforesaid
lines of the Lesser Angle, either from the left to the right, of from the right
to the left, they both serve to one and the same purpose, being taken out and
placed in such a manner and order, accordingly as they are particularly referred
to their proper places respectively, do make the name of a Devil, as hath been
treated and showed by an example elsewhere before, etc.
The calling forth is after this wise. As for example:
In the first Lesser Angle of the East Quadrangle the
upright black line there, if from the top downwards, hath the name of God:
IDOIGO which name calleth forth the subservient Angels of that Angle. In the
black transverse line thereof is the name of God: ARDZA, by which they do what
they are commanded. So by the name of God: IDOIGO backwards are the malignant
spirits whose names are made of three letters out of this Lesser Angle of the
East Quadrangle to be called forth. And by the name of the God: ARDZA,
backwards, they do also what they are commanded, so that the name: OGIODI
causeth those to appear by order of IDOIGO, And by the name: ARDZA, backwards,
commandeth them by the like order, etc.
In the second Lesser Angle of this said East
Quadrangle is in the middle upright black line thereof, the name of LLACZA, which
pronounced backwards is AZCALL, which name calleth the malignant Spirits, whose
names are collected of three letters out of it, and by the name: MALAP which is
the name: PALAM backwards, they do what they are commanded.
The middle upright line of the third Lesser Angle hath
the name of God:
AIAOAI, which pronounced backwards is: IAOAIA and this
calleth forth the evil spirits whose names are collected of three letters of
this Angle, the transverse line whereof hath the name of God: OIIIT, which
being pronounced backwards maketh the name: TIllO, whereby they are constrained
to obedience.
The upright black line of the fourth Lesser Angle of
this said Quadrangle hath this name of God: AOVRRZ, which backwards is: ZRRVOA,
and calleth forth those evil spirits, whose names are made of three letters
throughout.
The transverse black line thereof, hath this name of
God: ALOAI, which backwards is: IAOLA, which constraineth them to do whatsoever
they are commanded to do, etc.
The like rule and method is to be observed in the
other three Quadrangles of the General Table. Their offices shall be spoken of,
by and by, so that for calling forth of any Angel or Spirit wither good or
bad, and for their yielding obedience to do what they are commanded, the
repetition of those names of God respectively, unto which they are diversely
and severally referred, and by which they are governed, is sufficient.
The names of God that call forth the subservient
Angels of each Lesser Angle of the Greater Quadrangle call for the evil spirits
whose names are made of three letters of it, being pronounced backwards, for
unto you, so he is a God.
Now as general use and signification of the Tables,
and of the offices of the Angels, etc., and other remarkable observations etc.,
these Tables (or Tablets) contain all human
knowledge.
They stretch to the knowledge of Solomon, for out of
it springeth: (1) Physic, (2) the knowledge, finding, and use of metals, the
virtues of them, (3) congelations and virtues of stones (they are all one
matter), (4) the knowledge of all elemental creatures amongst us, how many
kinds there are, and for what they are created.
Those that are in the Air, Water & Earth by
themselves. The property of the Fire, which is the secret Life of all things.
But those more particularly.
(1)
The knitting together of
natures. (3) The knowledge of all mechanical crafts whatsoever. (4) The secrets
of man knowing, etc. (2) The moving from place to place as into this country or
that
|
Country as pleasure |
lieth Four Angels placed over the |
First Second Third Fourth |
Lesser Angle of the |
East West North South |
Great Quadrangle |
And also the destruction of nature and of things that may
perish, as of the enjoying and knitting them together etc. Likewise, the
offices of the sub-servient Angels in each of the Lesser Angles are as
followeth:
The KNOWLEDGE OF: (1) Physic in all its parts, and of
curing all diseases, etc. (2) The knowledge, finding, and use of metals, lieth
in the four Angels serving in the first, second, third and fourth Lesser Angles
of the East, West, North and South Greater Quadrangles. (3) The congelation of
stone, and the virtue of all stones, transformations, transplantations. (4) The
knowledge of all elemental creatures amongst us, how many kinds, and their use
in the creation as they are severally placed in the four Elements, Air, Water,
Earth, and Fire.
By these Tables may be known the several treasures of
the waters, and the unknown caves of the Earth, etc. As for example, the
subserving Angels in the second Lesser Angle of every Greater Quadrangle, and
also all the ministering servient Angels under them give the knowledge,
finding, and use of metals.
The benevolent Angels of that order will offer the passages of the sons of man (chiefly of serving) so that the Earth lying opened unto their Eyes, by the benevolent assistance of the Angels of Sight, they may plainly see and discover what treasures are in the Earth, both as to the natural mines of the Earth and all manner of Treasure Trove. And the Angels aforesaid are ministers for this purpose.
Treasure Trove, or such Treasure of the Earth as is lying therein, and that hath been heretofore in man’s possession is in the power of the Evil Spirits, whose names are made of three letters, and they can give the same to men, etc.
But as for the natural mines of the Earth, they have
nothing, to dotherewith, nor have any power over it at all, those treasures
belong properly to the benevolent subservient Angels who are formed in every
second Lesser Angle of each Quadrangle who (as I said before) can lay the caves
of the Earth open to the Eyes of man, etc. Where he may see the treasures of
the Earth as they are therein contained in, and according to their several and
respective natures, and properties, which being known to him, then hath he the
benevolent assistance both of the good and bad Angels to serve his necessities
therewith, according to the natures of their parts and offices, as to which
they are concerned and are properly referred, and have power over, etc.
The nature and offices of the Evil Spirits, aforesaid,
are quite contrary to those of the good Angels, as thus: The good Angels
belonging to physic, the cure of diseases, possess the Elemental vigour and
humid radicate of things natural, so on the contraty, the Evil Spirits
maliciously bring in diseases, or seek to destroy the elemental vigour and
strength of natural things, etc. The practice of all shall be shewed hereafter
particularly in a treatise by itself.
Having briefly shown by an example of the 1st and East
Quadrangle of the Table how to collect the name of the Great Angel thereof, or
the mighty Angelical monarch, bearing Rule and governing the East part or point
of the compass or angle, both celestially and terrestrially, and of the 6
Seniors, and of many other of governing and subservient Angels, and their
natures and offices, both good and bad together, with the use of all, etc. The
right understanding whereof is a sufficient evidence for unfolding the other 3
greater Angles of the Table, the use of which severally are the same as in
this, for the names of God by which they are governed and unto which are the
arms of the Ensigns or Banners borne before them.
The names of the Seniors, and the Angels governing and
placed over every Lesser Angle of each Greater Quadrangle, and the names of God
governing calling forth and commanding, and of the subservient benevolent
Angels, officiating again under them, and the names of God commanding, calling
forth and constraining them, and of many legions of others, both good and bad,
are to be gathered and collected thereunto, after the self-same method, as is
showed in the explanation of the East Quadrangle, and the offices also of all
the angels comprehended in the greater East Angle, even from the superior
monarch to the most inferior sub- servient, are the same as in this greater,
East Angle, so in the other three greater Angles, respectively, viz: The offices
and nature of the King and the Six Seniors are one and the same, alike, in all
the 4 Quadrangles of this Table, so also are the offices and the natures of all
the Angels, both governing and subservient in all the Lesser Angles serving to
each Quadrangle. As the 1st Lesser Angle of this Eastern Quadrangle is of
physic and compriseth the whole body thereof in all its parts, so doth the
Lesser Angle in the second West Quadrangle, the like. And the first Lesser
Angle of the 3rd Quadrangle, and the 1st Lesser Angle of the 4th Quadrangle,
the same likewise.
So the Angles of the 2nd Lesser Angle of the East
Quadrangle are of the same nature and offices as are the other three Lesser
Angles of the West, North, and South Quadrangles, are of the same offices and
nature, as the 3rd and 4th Lesser Angles of the East Quadrangle, and every way
have the same signification, only they differ in this particular. That some are
East, some West, North and South. A due consideration therefore ought to be had
and carefully taken in calling them, always observing to invocate from such a
point of the compass or Quire of Heaven where their power and abode is. And all
other concerns herein as is requisite thereto, ought likewise to be directed
to this or that, or such and such a Quarter or Angle unto which they properly
appertain and are properly referred etc.
And with all is to be understood that the other
letters of the table thus to be collected (as aforesaid) should seem hard to be
pronounced for want of vowels to sound and make out each syllable, as to the
pronouncing of a name proper, yet observing to pronounce every letter
distinctly as if it had a vowel going before or following it, then it sounds
well enough. And the reason of this strange kind of difference in our common
orthography is, that there is not a letter, nor part of a letter, but is
numbered and hath the same signification, etc.
As for the practice, it is thus:
Let the philosopher prepare a book of very fine parchment
or paper, and write very fairly therein, as shall be here directed, etc., and
also a handsome convenient chamber or place for practice. Which book must
consist, first of the invocations of the names of God, and secondly of the
Angels by the names of God, etc. As for example:
In the black transverse line that goeth athwart the
East Quadrangle, there are these three Great Names of God thus:
ORO IBAH AOZPI
So likewise in the second or West Quadrangle thus:
eMPeH ARSeL GAIOL
In the third or North Quadrangle, they are:
eMOR DIAL HeCTeGA
And so in the fourth or South Quadrangle:
OIP TEAA PDOCE
Four days after the Book is written, the magical
philosopher must only call upon the names of God, or rather on the God of
Hosts, from the Four Angels or Quaternary points of the compass: East, West,
North and South. And fourteen days after, he shall invoke the Angels by
petition, and by the names of God to which they are obedient from the Angels or
Mansions where they reside and dwell, East, West, North and South, as they are
to be found in the Tables, etc.
The fifteenth day he shall clothe himself in a vesture
made of white linen, and so have the apparition, use, and practice of the
spiritual creatures, which, when he hath attained to (as no doubt but he may)
he may be so expert in the practice part thereof, that he need not make use of
the linen vesture, nor the Books, nor to be confined to any such observations
and curiosities of place, or otherwise as was formerly commanded, as to the
entrance into the knowledge and practice of this art in attaining to the
society, converse, and use of the spiritual creatures. For if the Philosopher
can in his 15 days retirement and reservation but retain and remember the names
of the Angels and the names of God by which they are called forth, appear, and
do what they are commanded, he may call upon them, converse with them, and make
use of them (according to their nature and office) without either vestment or
Book or choice place, but wheresoever or howsoever he will, or wheresoever he
shall happen to be, etc.
For the calls, Invocations, invitations, or petitions,
to be used herein, and that are to be curiously written in a select book to be made
and provided for that purpose, according as is before expressed, is to be but a
short and brief speech in verbis
conceptis, as the mind shall prompt or dictate, observing the Angle or
point of the compass, where ever he shall be in respect of the poles, etc.
And one thing a little extraordinary, take notice of,
by the way, and that is this: Understand that the nature and offices of the
subservient Angels of every second Lesser Angle of each Greater Quadrangle of
the Table is the finding, knowledge and use of metals, to gather them
together, etc.
This is meant as to the natural mines of the Earth,
for they give neither coined money (which is such as hath been in use amongst
men, and by them have been dispitefully hidden from posterity and commonly termed
Treasure Tove or hidden treasure, etc.) and also is said elsewhere before, will
lay the passage of the Earth, and the secret caves of the hills, open visibly
to the sight of our eyes, that we may see and know what is enclosed and
contained in the bowels thereof, and to instruct us in the use of metals, in
all their parts, and to serve our necessities with such of them as they have
power over, and can command, which are such as have not been accomplished among
men, nor corrupted by them, etc.
On the contrary, the evil Angels whose names consist
of three letters and are collected out of the said Angles, have neither power
over the natural mines of the Earth, nor have anything to do therewith. But
they keep from the discovery and use of man all such treasures of gold and
silver as hath been formerly amongst them. And (as is said) most dispitefully
hidden and absconded from them in the bowels of the Earth, and is called
Treasure Trove or hidden treasure, and these sort of treasures, the Good Angels
have nothing to do withal, nor than to lay them open to our sight, nor have
power to serve our necessities otherwise than to discover them to us as
aforesaid. But this kind of Treasure Trove is wholly kept and possessed by the
malignant Angels and Spirits aforesaid, who have sole power over them, and may
be commanded or constrained to serve our necessities with them.
The calling them forth, as well as the calling forth
the Good Angels, and the moving them to visible appearance and to constrain
them to what they are commanded has also been shown before.
Understand also that when all this shall lie open
visibly to the sight of the Philosopher, and that he perceiveth and well
knoweth that it is kept by a malignant and evil spirit, and that it may
probably according to common apprehension, prove hard or difficult to obtain,
and the Philosopher should be at a nonplus, or at a stand, how to encounter and
to discharge the keeper thereof, from it, so that he may peaceably and without
molestation or interruption take away the same and enjoy it, without any dread
or fear of harm to him or any of his companions (if he hath any) or offence to
God, or injury to the soul’s health or in any way prejudicial or contrary to
religion, the Christian Faith, or a good conscience. Let him consider his
glorification and power in the Creation, and his Soul’s dignification as Man,
and how near he is to the Great Omnipotent Archetype, as he is the very image
and idea thereof, and as he is monarch of the world, and commandeth all such
malignant spirits and submission, subjection and obedience, and he shall
absolutely and positively conclude that they are but inferior servants and vile
slaves, and unto whom he shall say: “Arise, Begone! Thou art but a hindrance,
distraction, and of the places of Darkness. These are provided for the use of
man. Thou art vanquished, thy time is shortened, and fully now expired.
Therefore, I say depart to thy Orders. JEHOVAH JEHOVASHAH. And Lo, I saw you to
the end.”
Thus shall he use the malignant spirits and keeper of
Treasure Trove and not otherwise, and they will, nay, must obey and immediately
depart, and thus briefly is laid open and explained, the use and meaning of the
Table containing the Four Quadrangles, East, West, North and South, which is sufficient
for this our purpose.

Notes on Book H:
1. Regarding the superscripted letters ‘z’ & ‘n’ in the following lines: Westcott added numerous additional letters to the grid cells of the Sloane 307 Manuscript’s Tablets, in his revised and abridged version of the 17th Century original, in order to accomodate the sigils of the Governors in Dee an Kelly’s Terrestrial Victory system. For more on this see our Commentary. These kamea-type sigils were not published by Meric Casaubon in his 1659 True Relation, which most authorities believe to have been the sole source of the original Sloane 307. For Terrestrial Vicotry see Geoffrey James The Enochian Evocation. of Dr John Dee — Ed.

3. The Name: ‘IDOIGO’, is the Divine Name ruling the 1st Lesser Angle of the Eastern or Air Quadrangle. The Name: ‘ARDZA’, is the Name of Command through which the Divine Name operates in ruling this Lesser Angle. From these Sephirotic Crosses in the Lesser Angels, the Divine Name is always collected from the upright of the corss, working from the top down. The Name of Command is always collected from the cross-bar reading from left to right. -- D.G.K.
