The Enochian Evocation is based on the magical diaries & workbooks of Doctor John Dee, the famous Elizabethan scientist and nueus. These manuscripts document the ceremonies that Dec performed with Edward Kelly, who, gazing into a crystal stone, claimed to see and hear angels. According to Kelly, these beings desired to re-establish the true art of Magic, which had been lost due to Man’s wickedness and ignorance. The true magical an (they claimed) would bequeath superhuman powers upon its practitioners, change die political structure of Europe, and herald the coming of the Apocalypse.

Dec believed that this research was of great benefit to Mankind and far more important than his more mundane studies. Dee explained his dissatisfaction with worldly knowledge:

I have from my youth up, desired and prayed unto God for pure and sound wisdom and understanding oj truths natural and artificial, so that God's wisdom, goodness, and power bestowed in the frame oj the world might be brought in some bountiful measure under the tai-ent of my capacity... So for many years and in many places, far and near, I have sought and studied many books in sundry languages, and have conferred with sundry men, and have laboured with my own reasonable discourse, to find some inkling, gleam, or beam oj those radical truths. But after all my endeavours I could jind no other way to attain such wisdom but by the Extraordinary Gift, and not by any vulgar school, doctrine, or human invention.9

Dee felt that only through die practice of magic would he be able to learn those ’radical truths.’ Like Luther, Dee rejected the necessity of the church as an intermediary to God. But Dec carried this doctrine one step further, believing that holy revelations

could be obtained by practicing the magic of the ancient Hebrews:

I had read in books and records how Enoch enjoyed Cod's favor and conversation, and how God was familiar with Moses, and how good angels were sent to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joshua, Gideon, Esdras, Daniel, Tobias, and sundry others, to instruct them, inform them and help them in worldly and domestic affairs, and even sometimes to satisfy their desires, doubts, and questions of Cod's secrets. Furthermore, I considered the Shewstone which the high priests did use, by God? s own ordering, wherein they had lights and Judgements in their great doubts. I considered, too, that God did not refuse to instruct the prophets and seers to give ansivers to the common people concerning economics, as Samuel did for Saul; and so did Solomon the wise, immediately after attaining his wonderful wisdom through God. There-fore I was sufficiently taught and confirmed that I would never attain wisdom by mans hand or by human power, but only from God, directly or indirectly.}

Realizing the heretical aspects of these beliefs at a time when magic was perceived as questionable at best and at worst diabolic, Dec was vehement in his rejection of the ’black arts’:

I have always had a great regard and care to beware of the filthy abuse of such as willingly or wittingly invoke or consult with spiritual creatures of the damned sort: angels of darkness, forgers, patrons of lies and untruths. Instead I have flown unto God through hearty prayer, full oft and in sundry manners.}

Dec discovered that he was unable to perceive spirits on his own, and so was forced to employ skryers or crystal gazers. The most prolific of Dee’s skryers w*as Edward Kelly, a man of mediocre education whose main interest was alchemy. Kelly originally asked to work with Dee because Kelly believed that with divine aide the}* might discover the philosopher’s stone that would transmute lead into gold. Dee was hesitant at first, but when they performed a simple ceremony, it was far more successful than anything Dee had ever experienced:

f Ibidem

Thereupon I brought forth to him my stone in the frame (which was given me of a friend) and I said unto him, that I was credibly informed that to it (after a sort) were answerable various good An-gels ... He then settled himself to the Action: and on his knees at my desk, setting the stone before him, fell to prayer and entreaty, in the mean space, I in my oratory did pray and make motion to God & his good Creatures for the furthering of this Action. And within a quarter of an hour (or less) he had sight oj one tn the stone*

Kelly’s skrying was destined to produce what is perhaps the most unusual magical literature of the Renaissance.

Was Kelly a charlatan who fabricated visions out of his own imagination ? Historians have traditionally cast Kelly as a fraud who deluded his pious master], but the evidence perhaps docs not justify’ this judgement. It is true that Kelly accepted £50 per year for his services to DceJ but such annuities were the basis for survival in Elizabethan times. Far from encouraging Dec, Kelly eventually began to question the angelic nature of the spirits, and frequently tried to extricate himself from Dec’s employ}. Kelly might, of course, have been applying reverse psychology, but there is little reason why he should have bothered to do so, as Dec was already determined to continue the experimentation. If Kelly had been trying to plunder Dee’s money, why would Kelly have tried to convince Dee that the spirits were devils ?

It is difficult to account for the serious stylistic differences between Kelly’s usual writing style and the utterances that he attributed to the spirits. Kelly was an uninspired writer; the following exerpt is representative of his prowess:

The heavenly cope hath in him nature’s fower

Two hidden, but the rest to sight appear:

Wherein the sperms of all the bodies lower

Most secrett are, yett spring forth once a yeare...§

Contrast those salted and awkward lines with the Call of the Thirty Aires:

The work of man and his pomp, let them be defaced: His buyldings

Let them become caves for the beasts of the field: Confownd her understanding with darkness.

For why?

It repenteth me I made Man.

It seems impossible that this powerful passage could have been written by the same hand, or that Kelly’s own writing skill could have produced such passages of eldrich beauty as:

Can the wings of the windes understand your voyces of wonder?...

Stronger are your fete than the barren stone:

And mightier are your voices than the manifold windes....

Admittedly, stylistic differences are subtle gauges of authorship. But more concrete evidence against Kelly fabricating all his visions lies in the complexity of the Angelical (Enochian) keys. Could Kelly, whose single linguistic accomplishment was mastery of schoolboy Latin and even whose English was laced with colloquialisms, have devised an entire language, with its own unique grammar and syntax? It took Tolkien, a professor of philology, years to fabricate the Elvish tongue that figures so largely in his work; if Kelly fabricated the keys, he would have had to do so in a matter of days.

In short, if Kelly was the conscious author of all his ’visions’, then he possessed a far greater literary competence than he ever exhibited elsewhere However, the subconscious mind is often capable of feats that are impossible to the conscious mind. Could Kelly have hallucinated the visions ? It has been suggested that Dee may have propelled Kelly into a state of artificial psychosis with their ceremonies.f Kelly may also have had multiple personalities, for the spirits talk in biblical dialects quite different from Kelly’s normal speech.

f Peter French, Jckn Dee, The World of the Elizabethton hisgus, London: Routledge & Kegan Paul, 1972, pg. 114.

Kelly was having trouble distinguishing between his own thoughts and those of the ’spirits’. He complained of:

...a great stir and moving in his brains, very sensible and distinct, as of a creature of human shape and lineaments going up and down, to and fro in his brains and within his skull:J

Dec was forcing Kelly to perform ceremonies on an almost daily basis, and for hours at a stretch. Reflecting this stress, Kelly’s temper became extremely volatile as shown by this event* thar Dec recorded:

Suddenly E. K. fell into such a rage that...much ado I, Emeritus, and his brother had to stop or hold him...At length we let him go in his doublet and hose, without a cap or hat on his head: and into the street he hastened with his brother's rapier drawn... The rage and fury was so great in words and gesture as might plainly prove that the wicked enemy sought either E. K. his own destroying himself, or of me, or of his brother %

Kelly's behaviour was so bizarre diat Dee was afraid dur Kelly was possessed by the devil, one of the time's standard diagnoses for insanity. Dec had recently discovered that Kellv was performing black magic independent of their work together. This horrified Dee so much that he noted the event in Latin, even in his own private diary:

Horrenda & multiplicia heresium, & blasphemiarum dogmata, qui-bus illi hastes Jesu Christi ilium imbuerant...illisque malis Angelis renunciart, & omnes illorum Jraudes deteger... Conversio E. K. ad Drum, abdicatis omnibus Diabolicis ex penmen tis.§

The* ’horrible heresies’ that the ’evil angels’ had revealed to Kelly were, in the context of the time, insane. They questioned die entire fabric on which the culture was built. Dec recorded these heresies in his diary*:

I Casauboo, op. di., p. 328.

J Ibidem, p. 230.

  • § Ibidem, p. 164: Manifold horrible heresies and blasphemous doctrines, in which they eat the host of Jesus Chnsx — but he was led to put aside these eml angels and all their frauds... I spoke with E. K. about God, celling him to give over all his Diabolical expenmentL

They would have persuaded (Kelly):

—That Jesus was not God.

—That no prayer ought to be made to Jesus.

—Thai there is no sin.

—That mans soul doth go Jrom one body to another childes quickening

—That as many men and women as are now, have always been.

—That the generation of mankind Jrom Adam and Eve, is not an History, but a writing which has another sense*

Kelly could not have entertained such notions without being profoundly disturbed by their implications, and his conversion back to orthodoxy indicates his remorse and guilt There is little question that Kelly was exhibiting signs ot extreme stress and possible psychosis while working with Dec'.

Kelly’s participation in private magical ceremonies raises the tantalizing possibility that he might have had access to magical texts of which Dee was not aware, and that may have servo! as source' material for th<r Enodtian Evocation. Although Israel Regardie states that there is absolutely no trace of any part of the Enochian magical system or Angelical language in Europe.f;that viewpoint is not entirely justified. While it is true that the Angelical keys arc very different from, for example, the bastardized Arabic and Greek in various Solomonic grimoires, elements of the Enochian Evocation arc similar and in some cases almost identical to other Renaissance magical texts.

Both the Arbatelf and the Heptameronf are arranged like Book Two of the Enochian Evocation, with conjurations addressed to die rulers of each day of the week The sigil of .4hneth, also in Book Two, is apparently based upon an earlier sigil that appears in die Sworn Book of Honourius,§ a manuscript that antedated Kelly by almost 300 years. Of course, the entire methodology for devising spirit sigils out of magical squares of numbers and or letters was described in detail by Cornelius Agrippa c. 1533.**

Renaissance Europe did contain books of evocation magic ac-pibuted to Enoch. The very year the keys were dictated, Reginald Scot complained:

Conjurors corrie about at this daie, bookes intitled under the names of Adam, Abel, Tobie, & Enoch; which Enoch they repute the most divine fellow in such matters*.

Could Kelly have been utilizing such a book to assist him iu his private ceremonies, or to provide the material that Dee so incessantly demanded? Kelly was certainly guilty of some plagiarism, although it may have been subconscious, for it was Kelly rather than Dee, who discovered the plagiarism and reported it to Dee:

(Kelly) came speedily out of his Study, and brought in his hand one volume of Cornelius Agrippa his works... whereupon he inferred, that our spiritual Instructors were Cosenors to give us a description of the world, taken out of other Books...]

Dec, somewliat surprised, replied: I am very glad that you have a Book of your own, wherein these Geographical names are expressed]. Dee’s ignorance of the exaft contents of die library that Kelly kept in his study is extremely suspicious.

If Kelly was plagiarizing some as-yet undiscovered manuscript, it may have been Gnostic in origin, as significant parallels exist between the Angelical keys and certain Gnostic texts. For example, a typical incantation from the Pistis Sophia: Zajaa. Zama Ozza Rachama OzaiJ is not Angelical, but the overuse of the *Z’ phoneme is characteristic of Angelical, and the repetition of die word Zama echoes the refrain Zacar Ca Zamran that permeates the keys. Another linguistic similarity is die Gnostic name for the demiurge Ialdabaoth,§ quite close to the Angelical Iad Baltoh for ’God of Righteousness.’

The Gnostics tended to treat Enoch as a special personage, because he was the first mortal to speak with God after the fall,

§ Ibidem, p. :8S.

and so the first to attain die gnosis that they sought§. The Gnostics attributed works of magic to Enoch, such as the two great Booh o/Ieou, which Enoch wrote when I spoke with him from the Tree oj Knowledge, which were in the paradise of Adam*. The word IfiOU suggests that the* books contained conjurations with words much like those of the Pistis Sophia or the Angelical keys; the legendary origin of the Books in the garden of Eden recalls the claim that the Angelical language was that which Adam verily spake in innocence.

Like many Gnostic texts, die Angelical keys emphasize the opening of ’gates’ into various mystical realms. The Book of the Great Logos, a Gnostic text associated with die Books of Leou, contains the following passage:

The guardians of the Gates oj the treasure will open them, and they will pass upwards and ever inwards through the following spaces, and the powers rejoicing and giving them their mysteries, seals, and names oj power: the Orders of the Three Amens...Within each treasure is a Door or Gate, and without three Gates; each of the outer gates has three guardians.]

Compare die above passage with the following &om Kelly’s scrying:

Every table hath his key, every key openeth his gate, and every gate being opened, giveth knowledge of himself, of the entrance, and the mysteries of those things whereof he is an enclosure. Within these Palaces you shall find things that are of power., for every Palace is above his City and every City is above his Entrance.]

Both Gnostic and Angelical magic place emphasis on the number 49. For example, the Pistis Sophia states that the reflection of the supernal projections, powers, or co-partners of the Sophia [u'/ien] looked at from without, make an ordering into forty-nine^. while the apoc-

ryphal Books of the Savior state that no mystery is higher than the mysteries ye seek after, save only the mystery of the Seven Voices and the Nine-and-Eorty Powers and Numbers* These 49 powers recall die 49 good angels or even the Angelical keys themselves, which Kelly’s spirits described as:

49 voyces , or callings, which are the Natural Keys, to open.,.Gates of understanding...you shall have knowledge to move every Gate, and to call out as many as you please...and wisely open unto you the secrets of their Cities...^

Enochian Evocation would do much to explain the presence of the Angelical language in his scrying, as well as the stylistic variations in his work. However, the similarity between Kelly’s scrying and Gnostic magic, while undeniable, is not sufficiently strong to build a direct textual connection.

A serious objection to the theory that Kelly plagiarized visions is the way that the keys were revealed. The first five keys were dictated, letter by letter, backwards, while the rest were dictated forwards, without any significant errors. The bulk of the keys (over 1000 words) were dictated on a single day during a single session. Most of the English glosses were dictated on a single day, well after the Angelical, yet they match their Angelical counterparts almost perfectly. Kelly would have had to be capable of extraordinary feats of mnemonic virtuosity, if he utilized another magical text as source material for the keys.

A final possibility deserves discussion—was Kelly ever actually in contact with supernatural entities? In fact, the Dee-Kelly ceremonies contain some evidence that would seem to indicate the presence of the supernatural during some of the ceremonies.

One standard tesr for the presence' of the* supernatural is precognition of future events. This took place at least twice during the Dee-Kelly workings; the spirits predicted the Spanish armada and the execution of Mary Queen of Scots well before those e-vents could have been known.* However, the ’spirits’ predicted other events that never took place7.

  • • Ibidem, pgs. 516 & 533.

f Casaubon, op. at, p. 77.

  • • Donald C. Lavcock, The Complete Enochiati Diaiorury, London: Askin, 1978, p. 38

Another classic test for the presence of the supernatural is die speaking of a tongue with which the possessed is not familiar. During one ceremony, Kelly began repeating Greek words, but he soon became frustrated and interrupted with: Unless you speak some language that I can understand, I will express no more of this Ghybbrish§. Curiously, the Greek translates into a warning to Dee not to trust Kelly.

But the Angelical language itself forms a more startling example of ’speaking in tongues’, because it exhibits characteristics that would seem to indicate that it was designed to be a non-spoken language. As Da Vinci had pointed out nearly too years before the keys were dictated, spirits would be unable to make audible sounds on their own, due to a lack of vocal chords with which to vibrate the air*

Thus any ’language’ that spirits would ’speak’ would be radically different from a language intended for use by human beings. Onomatapceix would be totally lacking. Contractions would be used to create new concepts, rather than to smooth out pronunciation. Many words would feature strings of consonants rather than an easily-pronounced intermixes of vowels and consonants. The letter arrangement would appear somewhat random and more like a Cabbala than a spoken tongue. And finally, the system of numbers would not be based on io, since along with a lack of vocal chords, non-material entities would have little use for fingers.

The Angelical language exhibits mosr of these charaftcristics. There are no onomatapciox in Angelical. Angelical contractions such as Telocvovlm and Jadoiasmoma are conceptually convenient, but have not been edited for easier pronunciation. Many Angelical words feature unpronouncable strings of consonants. Angelical letter arrangements appear to be random^, and the language is stated to be the source language for Hebrew and thus Cabbala is implied. Finally, Angelical numbers are incomprehensible using any known base or numbering scheme}.

'Ibidem,?.^

The compiler of the Enochian dictionary, on the other hand, asserts that the Angelical language is English-like both in word order and in pronunciation. Since the exact character of die Aneclical language is essential to an understanding of The Enochian Evocation, Laycock’s theory must be examined in some detail.

Laycock gives an example where English is the only language that matches the Angc!ical§. But the keys include many other passages where the Angelical phrasing makes for extremely awkward English. For example, Nnso Crip Ip Nidali is glossed as Come awaye, but not your noyses. Since this is addressed to the Thunderers of Judgement and Wrath, what is probably meant by Nnso Crip Ip Nidali is leave wherever you are and come here, but dent make thundering noises. The Angelical language expresses the concept much more succinctly than is possible in English. Again, the Angelical word Telocvovim is glossed as him that is fain [fal-Zct”], but is actually a contraction of Teloch (death) and Vovin (dragon), literally ’death-dragon’—a reference to Satan’s transformation during his fall. Words like Telocvovim are much more

Germanic than English-like. In short, the Angelical language is no more English-like than any other non-English language; the fact that there are some matches is not significant

Laycock states that the Angelical language has English pronunciations. Unfortunately, Kelly never, as the spirits' ’mouthpiece’, pronounced the Angelical words. Kelly dictated letter by letter from a table that he saw in the crystal, as shown from Kelly’s description that Dee recorded:

[The angel] hath a rod or wand in his hand...it is of Gold...He standeth upon his round table of Christal or rather Mother of Pearl: There appear an infinite number of letters on the same, as thick as can stand by another.. .He standeth and pointeth with his rod to the letters of his Table, as if he made some account or reckoning^.

Furthermore, if Angelical letter arrangement has random characteristics, as Laycock claims, then the English-like pronunciation cannot be an inherent quality of the language itself. Far more likely is that Dee assigned pronunciations to the Angelical because

j IbOem, p. 4J.

  • * Casiuboa, op. at., p. 73.

he wished to speak the keys in a ceremony, and, being English, adapted them as well as he could to his native tongue. Indeed, outside of few minor suggestons, the spirits seem unconcerned with pronunciation. The Angelical language in its basic form makes few concessions to the human vocal chord.

Of course, one* must keep in mind that Kelly might have plagiarized the keys; in any case, whoever or whatever devised the keys made a viable attempt to simulate a ’language’ designed for non-matcrial beings.

The final and most dramatic evidence for the presence of the supernatural is a telekinetic phenomenon that Dee himself witnessed and described:

There appeared a great flame of fire in the principal Stone....Suddenly one seemed to come in at the fourth window of the Chappel... the stone was heaved up a handjul high and set down again. The one at the window seemed... with spread-abroad arms to come to E. K., at which sight, he shrinked back somewhat, and then that Creature took up between both his hands the stone and frame of gold, and mounted up away as he came E. K. catched at it, but he could not touch it ...E. K. was in a great fear and trembling and had tremorem cordis for a while. But I was very glad and well pleased*.

Although it is true that this event could easily be reproduced using modem techniques of prestidigitation, stage magic in the j6th century was much too crude to produce such an illusionf. If Kelly had some trick of making a crystal rise and fly out a window, he could have made far more than £50 a year performing this feat for the public. Kelly’s reaction to the event is revealing; Dee apparently listened to his heart and noticed tremors, a condition that Kelly would have found difficult to simulate. Kelly seems genuinely affeded, but the cold and clinical Dee declared that he was glad and well pleased. The event proved to Dee, beyond the shadow of all doubt, that they were in contad wnth supernatural powers.

Was Kelly a charlatan, a psychotic, a plagiarist, or a true skryer? The distinction was non-existent in Kelly’s own mind, because differentiating between these states required a well-defined sense of reality. There is no simple explanation for Kelly’s actions. He believed in the spirits, yet he fabricated and plagiarized. He exhibited the signs of psychosis, yet manifested extraordinary linguistic and telekinetic phenomena-. Forced on an almost daily basis into abnormal psychological and hypnotic states, plagued by the constant fear of damnation, convinced to let his life be controlled by ’angels’ that were cither manifestations of his diseased subconscious or of strange otherworldly prcsenccs-all these served to blur Kelly’s perception of reality.

It is ironic that Kelly is so often viewed as victimizing Dee. Kelly was forced to stay with Dec because the money that the doctor gave him supported Kelly’s wife and brother. When Kelly tried to leave. Dee would coerce him to remain by playing on his guilt and fear. It was Der, not Kelly, who was gaining the benefit from the magical ceremonies, for it sated his lust for ’radical truths’.

A single incident epitomizes the difference between the attitudes of the two men. The spirits demanded that Dee and Kelly have sexual relations with each other’s wives. Whether the suggestion came from Kelly’s subconscious or from some other source is not important; what is important is the reactions of the two men.

Kelly was appalled and, in a rare ludd moment, insisted that Dee include a written protest in his magical diaries:

f, Edward Kelly, by good and provident determination and consideration in these former Actions, that is to say, appearings, shews made, and voyces uttered...havefrom the beginning thereof (which at large by the records appeareth) nor only doubted and disliked their insinuations and doctrine but also at diverse and sundry times... sought to depart from the exercises thereof..they manifestly [/wve] urged and commanded in the name of God a Doctrine Damnable and contrary to the Laws of God*

  • • Casiubon, op. at-, Secund page 17.

Dec had his own doubts, and for the first time calls the spirits ’apparitions’f. But Dee was not willing to admit that the ’radical truths’ might have had a less than divine origin, and, against all the protests of Kelly and the two wives (who ’disliked utterly this last doctrine’), Dee drew up an elaborate contraft that included the following stipulation:

this doctrine and doings should unto no mortal man be disclosed, but among us onely the above-named four to be kept most secret... we all and every four of us do request., jhat the sudden and immediate death may light and fall onto the discloser and on him or her to whom the same doctrine or doing any manner of way shall be disclosed or knowrif.

Thus the hypocritical Dec was willing to pretend that he was following the commandments of God, but asked for death for anyone who found out about it.

The ceremonies continued for some time, possibly pushing Kelly beyond the limits of sanity. After splitting with Dec, he foolishly proclaimed (and perhaps believed himself) that he had indeed discovered the Philosopher’s Stone. Finally, in another manic rage, he murdered a man and was imprisioned for the rest of his life. When finally given die opportunity to escape from his tower prison, he fell (or jumped?) to his death§.

Dee felt no guilt for any of his magical experiments, and continually protested his own innocence of any wrongdoing:

The great losses and damages which I have sustained do not grieve my heart so much as the rash, lewd, fond, and most untrue fables and reports of me and my philosophical studies... The works of my hands and the words of my mouth bear lively witness to the thoughts of my heart and inclination of my mind§§.

Even in the last years of his life, Dee was willing to stand trial for Witchcraft, convinced that even the repressive courts under

§§ Casaubon, cp at, Dec's Apology to the Archbishop of Canterbury.

James the First would acquit him.*

Dee’s quest was a spiritual one and his sincere intention was to bring God’s wisdom to Mankind. Dec tried to extend the power of Man beyond the threshold of science. While Dec’s fanaticism and blind faith in the reality of Kelly’s skrying caused others to suffer, one must admit that Dee himself did not escape unscathed. Once the news of his magical practices had become public knowledge, his house and belongings were partially destroyed by a mob of ignorant peasants. And despite the spirits’ promises of vast treasures, Dee died in abjed poverty, still practicing magic to the end of his days.f

The Enochian Evocation reveals those magical arts, those 'radical truths’ for which Doctor John Dee, the foremost scientist and magus of his time, risked his reputation, the virtue of his wife, the sanity of his friend, and the salvation of his own souk

CHAPTER I.

THE FALL OF MAN ¥

Jr. The Garden of Eden.

g^reSWjgAN, in his creation, being made an Innocent, was aautkor^“l and made partaker of the Power M and Spirit of God. He not only knew ail tilings under Creation and spoke of them properly— naming them as they were—but was also a partaker of the presence and society of Angels, a speaker of the mysteries of God, and spoke even with God Himself. 3$ So in that innocence, the power of his partaking with God and His good Angels was exalted, and so became holy in the sight of God.

§2. The Casting Out of Adam.

MBut Coronzon (for so is the name of that mighty devil), envying man’s felicity, and perceiving that the substance of man’s lesser part was frail and imperfect in respect to his purer essence, began to assail man, and so prevailed. By offending so, man became accursed in the sight of God, and so lost both the Garden of Felicity and the judgement of his understanding, but not utterly the favor of God. But he was driven forth (as your scriptures record) unto the Earth which was covered with brambles. 3$Adam received punishment for his offence, in that he was turned out into the earth, and so did Adam, accursed, bring all misery and wretchedness into the world. But in the same instant when Adam was expelled, the Lord gave unto the world her

time, and placed over her Angelic Keepers, Watchmen, and Princes.

§3. The Origin of Hebrew.

SSBeing as dumb, and not able to speak, Adam began to learn (through necessity) the language which thou callest Hebrew but not in the form which is now Hebrew amongst you. Adam uttered and delivered to his posterity the nearest knowledge that he had of God and His Creatures. From his own self, he divided this speech into three parts: twelve, three, and seven. This division yet rcmaineth, but the true forms and pronunciations are lost Therefore Hebrew is not of that force that it was in its original dignity; much less is it to be compared with this language that we deliver, which Adam verily spake in innocence and which has never been uttered nor disclosed to man since, until now. In this language, the power of God must work and wisdom in her true kind must be delivered.

OR THAT WHICH IS OF A determined proportion, lift up himsel£ heave up his hands, and gather the sun into his bosom ? Lord, it cannot be. Lord, my imperfection is great. Lord, I am less than sand. Lord, thy good Angels and Creatures excel me by far, for our proportion is not alike and our senses agreeth not.

^^Notwithstanding I am comforted. For we all have one God, all one beginning from thee, and all respect thee as Creator. Therefore I will call upon thy name and in thee I will become mighty. Thou shale light me, and I will become a Seer. I will see thy Creatures and will magnify thee amongst them.

3SThose that come into thee have the same gate, and through that same gate descend those that thou sendest. Behold, I will offer my house, my labour, my heart and soul, if it will please thy Angels to dwell with me and I with them—to rejoice with me that I might rejoice with them—to minister unto me that I might magnify thy name.

Aa

3$Then, lo, these Tables (which I have presided and prepared according to thy will) I offer unco thee and unco thy holy Angels, desiring them through thy holy Names. As thou art their light and comfort, so they will be my light and comfort. Lord, they prescribe no laws unto thee, thus it is not meet that I prescribe laws unto them. What it pleases them to offer unto me, I will receive. Behold, Oh Lord, if I shall call them in thy name, be it unto me in mercy, as unto the servant of the Highest. Let them manifest unto me, howsoever I shall call them and at whatever time.

SSOh Lord, is there any who is monal that can measure the heavens ? How, therefore, can the heavens enter into man’s Imagination ? Thy Creatures arc the glory of thy countenance and thereby thou glorificst all things; but this glory' excelled! and is far above my understanding. It is great wisdom to speak with Kings according to one’s understanding, but to command Kings is not wisdom unless it come from thee.

MBchold, Lord, how shall I ascend into the heavens ? The air will not carry me, but resisted! my folly. I fall down, for I am of the earth. Therefore, oh thou very light and true comfort, that canst command the Heavens: Behold, I offer these Tables unto thee. Command them as it pleascth thee. Oh you Ministers and true lights of understanding, who govern this earthly frame and die elements wherein we live: Do for me as for the servant of the Lord. For unto me it has pleased the Lord to talk of you. MBehold, Lord, thou hast appointed me 50 times. Thrice 50 times I will lift up my hands unto thee. Be it unto me as it plcaseth thee and thy holy Ministers. I require nothing but thee, through thee, and for thy honor and glory. Yer I hope that I shall be satisfied and shall not die (as thou hast promised) until thou gathcrest the clouds together to judge all things. And in that moment I shall be changed and dwell with thee forever.

jj. The Book of Enoch.

jgAnd at the end of the 50 days, there appeared unto Enoch that which is not now to be manifested nor spoken ot Enoch enjoyed the fruit of God, his promise, and received the benefit of his faith. Here may the wise learn wisdom; for what doth man do that is not corruptible? sSAnd Enoch said unto die Lord: Eet there by remembrance of thy mercy, and let those that love thee taste of this after me. Oh let not thy mercy be forgotten. And the Lord was pleased. So after 50 days, Enoch wrote, and this was die tide of his books: Let those that Fear God and are worthy —Read.

CHAPTEP ITJ

THE FALL OF ENOCH’S MAGICK.

¥

  • §i . The Unworthy Read Enoch's Book.

JT BEHOLD. THE PEOPLE WAXED WICKED & BECAME unrighteous, and the spirit of the Lord was Hr off and gone away from them. So that those that were unworthy began to read. And the kings of the earth said thus against the Lord: What is it that we cannot do, & who is he that can resist us ?

  • §2 . The Lord Sends Wicked Spirits.

jSAnd the Lord was vexed, and he sent in amongst them 150 lions, spirits of wickedness, error, and deceit And they appeared unto the kings of the earth, for the Lord had put them between those that arc wicked and his good Angels. And these spirits began to counterfeit the doings of God and His power, for they had power given to them to do so. And the memory of Enoch washed away.

  • §3 . Enoch's Magick Forgotten.

SSThe knowledge of mystical figures and their use is the gift of God delivered unto Enoch and (by Enoch’s request) unto the faithful, that they might have the true use of God’s Creatures, and of the earth whereon they dwell. So hath the Devil delivered unto the wicked the signs and tokens of his error and hatred towards God, so that they, in using them, might consent in their will and so become partakers with him in his reward, which is artcrnal damnation. These signs they call Characters—a lamentable thing—for by these many souls have perished. For the doings of the ./Egyptians seem, but arc not so. The doings of the Lord arc, and continue to be. But, as the painter imitates the gestures of man. so doth the Devil imitate the substance and things created and made by God.

  • §4 . Concerning Satan.

jgWhere arc die monuments that Satan hath built? Hath he not built a fort on the whole earth ? Hath he not victory over die Saints ? Dwclleth he not in the temple of the Highest ? Triumpheth he not in the cities of the world ? But without comfort are his victories and without pleasure are his dwelling places, for he knoweth that his time is at hand. He that now hath freedom shall become bound. He unto whom the w’bole world is a garden, there shall not be one foot left. Therefore arc all his pleasures vanity, all his triumphs smoke, and his authority no-diing but a meet shadow.

  • CHAPTER IV.

THE REESTABLISHMENT OF ENOCH’S WISDOM

  • §i . The Lord is Displeased With Man.

ICfSngljHE Godhead, keeping in his Almighty bosom the raflS QSfl image and form of all things, looked down upon KSSjSV th0 can^ 52^: ^ei us now down amongst the *w of men. But he saw that all things grew contrary to their creation and nature, either keeping their dignities and secret virtue shut up in obscurity, or else riotously perishing through imbecility and ignorance.

SSSo then he said: Behold, I delight not in the World. The Elements are defiled. The sons of men are wicked, their bodies are become dunghills, and the inward parts (which are the secret chambers of their hearts) are become the dens and dungeons of the damned. Therefore, I will draw my spirit from amongst them, and they shall become more drunken, and their ignorance shall become such as never was before...no, not since the fall of the heavens ! For, Lo, the time is come, and he that is the Son of the Unrighteousness liveth. Unto him shall be given strength and power. The kings of the earth shall become mad, yea, even raging mad, yea, even unto the third madness in the depth of their own imagination. But I will build my temple in the woods and in the desert places and will become a serpent in the wilderness.

  • §2 . The Lord Relenteth.

MLo, the Thunder spake, and the earth became misty and full of fog, so that the soul of man might sleep in its own confusion. The second Thunder spake, and there arose spirits, such as are for Soothsayers, Witches, Charmers, and Seducers. They have entered into the holy places and have taken up their scats in man. SSWoe be unto the earth, for she is corrupted. Woe be unto the earth, for she is surrendered to her adversary’. Woe be unto the

earth, for she is delivered into the hands of her enemy. Yea, woe be unto the sons of man, for their vessels are poisoned. But even then said the Lord: I will be known in the wilderness and will Triumph in my weakness.

  • §3 . The Lord Sends Raphal to Dee & Kelly.

SfAnd lo, he called you. And you became drunken and foolish with the spirit of God. The Lord said: Descend, for he calleth. And so Raphxl (who had brought up your prayer) descended, and he was full of the power and spirit of God. And he delivered a Doctrine—neither painted nor carved nor imagined by man— but simple, plain, full of strength and the power of the Holy Ghost This doctrine began, as man did, nakedly from the earth, but is yet the image of perfection. It is this self-same Art which is delivered unto you as an infallible doctrine. For now’ it hath pleased God to deliver this Doctrine again out of darkness and to fulfil his promise with thee for the Books of Enoch. And to thee he sayeth as he said to Enoch: Let those that are worthy understand this, by thee, that it be one witness of my promise towards thee.

  • CHAPTER V.

THE NATURE OF THIS WISDOM.

*

Ji. To whom this Wisdom is to be Spoken.

$ Wisdom is not to be spoken of in any other KgEj KSw neither is it to be talked of with man's im-agination. For this work is the gift of God, which ft ^1 power, and so doth He open it in a tongue of power, to the intent that die proportions may agree in themselves. For it is written, Wisdom sitteth upon a hill, and bc-holdeth the four winds, and girdeth herself together as the brightness of die morning. But she is visited by only a few, and dwelled! alone as though she were a widow.

  • §2 . Concerning the Tables of Enoch.

5$ We instruct and inform you, according to this Doctrine delivered, that which is contained in die 49 Tables. In 49 voyces, or callings, which arc the Natural Keyes to open those (not 49 but 48, tor One is not to be opened) Gates of understanding. You shall have knowledge to move every’ Gate, and to call out as many as you please, or shall be thought necessary. They can very well, righteously, and wisely open unto you the secrets of dieir Cities, and make you understand perfecdy that which is contained in die Tables. Through this knowledge you shall easily be able to judge, not as the world doth, but perfecdy: of the world, of all things contained within the compass of Nature, and of all things which are subject to an end.

  • §3 . Concerning the Angelic Calls or Keys.

SSUnto this Doctrine belongeth the perfect knowledge, and remembrance of die mystical Creatures. In these keys which we deliver, arc the mysteries and secret beings and effects of all things moving, and moved within the world. These calls touch all parts of the World. The World may be dealt with, and her

parts; therefore you may do anything. These calls are the keys into the Gates and Cities of wisdom, which cannot be opened, but with visible apparition. This is according to the former instructions and is to be had by the calling of every Table.

jSThese are the holy and mystical Calls delivered, which followed! in practice for the moving of the Tables that control the Kings and Ministers of government. Their utterance is of force, and moveth them to visible apparition. Moved and appearedt dies' are forced (by the Covenant of God delivered by his spirit) to render obedient and faithhd society. They will open the mysteries of their creation, as far as shall be necessary: and give you understanding of many thousand secrets, wherein you are yet but children. For every Table hath his key, every key openeth his gate, and every gate being opened, giveth knowledge of him-self, of the entrance, and of the mysteries of those things whereof he is an enclosure. Within these Palaces you shall find things that are of power. For every Palace is above his City and every City above his entrance.

3SIn these keys which we deliver, are the mysteries and secret beings and effects of all things moving, and moved within the world. In this is the life of Motion, in whom all tongues of the world are moved, for there is neither speech nor silence that was or shall be to the end of the world.

  • §4 . Concerning the Primaval Language.

JfThus you see the necessity of this tongue, the excellency of it, and why it is preferred before that which you call Hebrew. For it is written that every lesser conscnteth to its greater. Our wisdom shall prove Rhetoric. In this language, every letter signified! the member of the substance whereof it speaketh. Every word signified! the essence of the substance The letters are separated, and in confusion: and therefore, are by numbers gathered together, which also signify a number. For as every greater contained! his lesser, so are secret and unknown forms of things

knit up in their parents. Being known in number, they are easily distinguished, so that herein we teach places to be numbered, letters to be elected from the numbered, and proper words from the letters, which signify substantially the thing that is spoken of in the center of the Creator.

SlEvcn as the mind of man is moved at an ordered speech, and is easily persuaded in things that are true, so arc the creatures of God stirred up in themselves when they hear the words with which they were nursed and brought forth. For nothing moveth, that is not persuaded; neither can anything be persuaded that is unknown. Without this language, the Creatures of God understand you not You are not of their Cities; you are become enemies, because you arc separated by ignorance from Him that govemeth the City.

  • §5 . Concerning the 91 Earthly Princes.

jSThc Call of the Thirty Aires summons the 91 Princes and spiritual Governors unto whom the earth is delivered as a portion. They bring in and depose kings and all governments upon the earth, and they vary the natures of things w ith the variation of every moment. Unto them, the providence of the xtemal judgement is already opened. They arc governed by the 12 angels of the 12 Tribes, which are, in turn, governed by the 7 that stand before the presence of God.

S$Ler him that can see, look up. Let him that can hear, attend, for this is wisdom. They arc all spirits of the Air, not rejected, but dignified. They dwell and have their habitation in the air, in diverse and sundry places, for their mansions are not alike, nor are their powers equal. Understand, therefore, that from the fire to the earth, there are 30 places or abidings, one above and beneath another, wherein these Creatures have their abode, for a time.

  • §6 . Concerning the Great Table of the Quarters.

jfTHE Great Table of the Quarters contaixeth the follow -jug: *£ 1. All human knowledge. * 2. Out of it spriugeth Physic.

  • 3. The knowledge of all elemental Creatures amongst you, how many kinds there arc, and for what use they were created, those Jut live in the air, those that live in the waters, those that dwell io the earth, and those of the fire (which is the secret life of all things). * 4. The knowledge, finding, and use of metals, the virtues of them, die congelations and virtues of stones. 5.The conjoining and knitting together of natures. The destruction of all nature and of things that may perish. 6. Moving from place to place, as, in this country or that country* at your pleasure.

7. The knowledge of all mechanical crafts. 8. The transmutation of form, but not essence. ^9.The knowledge of the secrets of men.

CHAPTER VI

GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS OF THIS ART. *

  • §i . Art Thou Worthy to Read ?

HHUS sattu the messengers of the God of Wisdom: Sals your worthiness such that you merit such great mercy ? Arc your vessels cleansed and made apt to receive and hold the sweet liquor of pure understanding ? sSBe not proud of the gifts of God, but become humble. Do not justify yourself in respect that this is the word of God delivered unto you for your own selves. The more you receive, be the more thankful. The more you be in die strength of God, the more use you the pureness of humility.

jSYou called for Wisdom, and God hath opened unto you his Judgement. He hath delivered unto you the key’s that you may enter. But be humble. Enter not of presumption, but of permission. Go not in rashly, but be brought in willingly. For many have ascended, but few have entered. Therefore be diligent that you may enter in, not as spoilers, but as such as deserve entertainment in the name and through the power of the Highest. For great are the mercies of God unto such as have faith.

  • §2 . Deal not with Wicked Spirits.

long as thou dealest wdth wicked spirits, the Lord will keep back his hands and thou keepest back the Lord. If thou wilt be the minister of God, if thou wilt go forward in His work, if thou wilt see the happy times that arc to come, thou must abstain from evil. Thou must sweep thy house clean. Thou must put on thy best garments and must become humble and meek. 3$Let not thy life be a scandie to the will of the Lord, and to the greatness of his works. For the power that is within thy soul is of great force and the ability to perform those things that proceed with power. This is the cause that the wicked ones

obey thee, for they fear themselves when they see the seal of thy Creation. Remember that there is a continual fight between us and Satan, wherein we vanquish by patience. The Devil is the father of carping, so doth he subtly infect the Seer’s imagination, mingling unperfect forms with my utterance. Water is not received without air, neither the word of God without blasphemous insinuation. The son of God never did convert all, neither did all that did hear him, believe. Therefore, where the power of God is, is also Satan.

13 .Concerning the Book, Vestments, & Days.

jSThe book consisted! first of the invocation of the names of God, and second of the invocation of the Angels, by the names of God. Their offices arc manifest. MFour days after your book is made, you must only call upon those names of God or of the God of Hosts, in those names. And 14 days after, you shall (in some convenient place) call the Angels by petition and by the name of God unto which they are obedient. 3$ On the fifteenth day. you shall cloth yourselves in vestures made of white linen and so have the apparition, use, and practice of the Creatures. 3$For this Art is not a labour of years, nor many days.

§4. Conclusion.

3SThus hath God kept promise with you, and hath delivered you the keys to his storehouses, wherein you shall find (if you enter wisely, humbly, and patiently) treasures worth more than the frames of the heavens. Therefore, examine your books. Confer one place with another, and learn co be perfect for the practice and entrance.

MThinkest thou that we speak anything that is not true ? Then thou shalt never know the mysteries of all the things that have been spoken. If you love together and dwell together, and in one God, then God will be merciful unto you, bless you, comfort you, and strengthen you unto the end. More would I say but words profit not God be amongst you.

3$As Michxl and Uriel at the beginning of these revealed mysteries were present and gave authority to Carmara to order the whole Hcptarchical Revelation; so at the conclusion, they appeared again, and Raphael with them; and Michael concluded the second book of this particular revelation Hcptarchical with these words following:

MMerciful is our God and glorious is his name, which chooseth his creatures according to his own secret judgement. This Art is thr first part of a threefold Arc joining Man with the knowledge of the world, the government of his creatures, and the sight of his majesty. This is (O 1 say unto you) that which is strength, medicine, and mercy to those that fear him. Amen.

KING CARMARA

jSThou hast a work of three proportions in essence, and of seven in form, which is (of itself) divided by a number sevenfold: of the course, estate, and determination of things above, things near, and things below, which of itself, is pure, perfect, and without blemish. 5SOh God, how easy is this first understanding ! Thou hast been told pcrfcdly, plainly, and absolutely, not only of the condition, dignities, and estate of all things that God hath framed, but also, thou wast delivered the most perfed form and use of them- sSEven as God is jusr, His judgements true, His mercies unspeakable, so are we the true messengers of God.

MICHAL

MNow you touch the world and the doings upon Earth. Now we show unto you the lower world and the governors that work and rule under God. By them you will have power to work such things as shall be to God’s glory, and the profit of your country and the knowledge of his Creatures. They proceed from

one God, one knowledge, and one operation. Come, my sons, behold these tables. Herein lie the names, that work under God upon the earth, not of the wicked, but of the Angels of light. The whole government doth consist in the hands of 49, (in God bis Power, Strength, Mercy, and Justice) whose names are here evident, excellent, and glorious. Mark these tables, mark them, record them to your comfort. This is the first knowledge. Herein shall you find wisdom. Halleluiah. Mighty and Omnipotent art thou, O God, God, God, amongst thy creatures. Thou fillcst all things with thy excellent foresight. Thy glory be amongst us forever. Amen.

URIEL

jSThe fountain of wisdom is opened. Nature shall be known. The earth with her secrets shall be disclosed. The elements with their power shall be divulged.

jSBchold, I teach! There are 49 Angels, glorious and excellent-, appointed for the government of all earthly actions. These 49 do work and dispose the will of the Creator, being limited from the beginning in strength, power, and glory. These shall be subject unto you, in the name and by invocating upon the name of God, who doth lighten, dispose, and comfort you.

KING CARMABA

MWhat doth heaven behold or the earth contain that is not or may be subdued, formed, and made by these? What learning grounded upon wisdom with the excellencies in nature cannot they manifesr?

URIEL

SSHe that standeth in the midst of the globe signifieth Nature. Whereupon, in the first point, is the use and practice of this work. That is to say, concerning the first part, for it is said: The book containeth three kinds of knowledge':

Thou art yet dead. Thou shalt be revived. But Oh, bless God truly. The blessing that God giveth me I will bestow’ upon thee by permission. O how mighty is our God, which walked on the waters, which sealed me with His name, whose glory is without end. Thou hast written me, but yet dost not know me. Use me,

in die Name of God; I shall, at the time appointed, be ready. I will manifest the works of the seas and the miracles of the deep shall be known.

KING CAR.MARA

SSBehold, thou dcsircst and art sick with desire. I am the disposer though not the composer of God’s medicines. Thou dcsircst to be comforted and strengthened in thy labours. 1 minister unto thee the Strength of God. What I say is not of myself Neither that which is said to me, is of themselves; but is said of Him which liveth forever. These mysteries hath God lastly, and of His great mercies granted unto thcc. I have answered thy doubting mind. Thou shalt be glutted, yea filled, yea thou shale swell and be puffed up with the perfect knowledge of God’s mysteries in His mercies. Abuse them not. Be faithful; use mercy. God shall enrich thee. Banish Wrath—It was the first and die greatest commandment. I reign by Him and live by Him which reigneth and liveth forever.

531 have showed thee perfectly. Behold I teach again. O how merciful is God, that revealcth such great secrets to flesh and blood! Thou has 42 letters. Thy tables last, contain so many.

SSWhen thou wilt work for anything pertaining to the estate of a good king, thou must first call upon him which is their prince. Secondly, the ministers of his power are six.

5SIn outward sense my words are true. I speak now of the use of one of the first that I speak of, or manifested yesterday. Said I not and showed I not the Government of princes, for as it is a mystery to a further matter, so it is a purpose to a present use. If it rules worldly princes, how much more shall it work with the Princes of Creation ? Thou desirest use; I teach thee use. And yet the Art is to the further understanding of all sciences that are past, present, and yet to come. Fruits hath further virtue, but only in the eating. Gold has further condition, property and quality, than in melting or in common use. Kings

there are in Nature, with Nature, and above Nature. Thou art Signified in this knowledge.

jlLast of all, thy ring, which was appointed thee, with the lamen comprehending the form of thy own name, which is to be made in perfect gold, as is aforesaid.

hou shalt be comforted. But respect the W’orld, whereunto thou art provided; and for what end; and that in what time. Sen e God truly; serve Him justly. Great care is to be had with those that meddle with Prince’s affairs. Much more consideration with whom thou shalt meddle or use any practice. But God hath shadowed thee from destruction. He preserveth His faithful, and shaddoweth the just with a shield of honour. None shall enter into the knowledge of these mysteries with thee, but this worker*. Thy estate with the Prince (now reigning)! *^1 shortly be amended, her favour increased, with the good will of diverse that are now’deceivers. Thy hand shall shortly be their help; and thou shalt do wonderful and many benefits (to the augmenting of God’s Glory) for thy country. Finally, God doth enrich thee with knowledge and of thyself hath given thee understanding of these worldly vanities. He is merciful and his good creatures neither have, do, nor will forget thee. God bless you both; whose Mercy, Goodness, and Grace I pronounce and utter upon you.

Then he took a ring out of the flames of his sword and gave it to Uriel and said: The Strength of God is unspeakable. Praise be to God for ever & ever-And Uriel did make curtsy to him. Then Michxl did say the following:

MICHAEL

SSAftcr this sort must be the ring. Note it. I will reveal thee this ring, which was never revealed since the death of Solomon, with whom I was present. I was present with him in strength and mercy. Lo, this it is. This it is wherewith all miracles and divine works and wonders were wrought by Solomon. This it is which I have revealed unto thee.

SSThen he laid the ring down upon the Table and said: Note. I noted the manner of the ring in all points. After that he threw the ring down upon the table and it seemed to fall through the table. And then he said the following:

MICHAL

5SS0 shall it do at thy commandments. Without this ring thou shalt do nothing. Blessed be his Name that compasseth all things. Wonders are in him and his Name is wonderful. His Name work-eth wonders from generation to generation.

DEE

MThen Michxl brought in die seal which he showed the other day and opened his sword and had the Skrycr read. And he read /Emeth. Then die sword closed up again and Michad said the following:

MICH -FT

MThis I do open unto thee because thou marvclcst at the Sigil of God. This is the name of the Seal which be blessed forever. This is the seal itself This is holy. This is pure. This is forever. Amen. •3$As truely as I was with Solomon, so truely will I be with thee. I was with Solomon in all his works and wonders. Use me, in die Name of God, for all occasions.

MThc third assembly are those which taste of God’s mysteries and drink of die juice of Nature, and whose minds are divided, some with eyes looking towards heaven, the rest to the center of the earth. Where God’s glory is not, there neither arc the good, nor goodness.

By whom in generality, or by any one of diem in particularity, diou shale work for any intent or purpose. As concerning the letters particularly, they do concern the names of 42, which 42 in generally, or one of them, do and can work the destruction, hinderance, or annoyance of the estate, condition, or degree (as well for a body of government) of any wicked or ill-living prince.

3$Thy character must have the names of the seven Angels (wnt-ten in the midst of the Sigil of .ZEincth) graven upon the other side in a circle. In the midst whereof must the stone be, which was also brought, wherein thou shalt at all times behold (private to thyself) the state of God’s people through the whole earth. S$The four feet of the table must have 4 hollow things of sweet wood, whereupon they must stand. Within the hollow spheres thy seals may be kept unpenshed. One month is all for the use thereof. The silks must be of diverse colours, the most changeable that can be gotten, for who is able to behold the Glory of the Seat of God ?

3$Leave out the letter ’B’ of the seven names of the Kings and seven princes and place them in a table divided by 12 and 7, the seven spaces being uppermost. And therein write in the upper line, die letters of the King, with the letters of his prince following just after his name. And so of the six others and their princes. And read diem on the right hand, from the upper part to the lowest. And thou shall find, then, the composition of this table. SSThcrcin they are all comprehended, saving certain letters which arc not to be put in here. By reason that the Kings and Princes do spring from God, and not God from the Kings and Princes. Which excellency is comprehended and is also manifest in that third and fourth number round about the sides (of this square table) is every letter of die 14 names of the seven kings and princes. SSHereafrcr shall you perceive that the glory of this table sur-mounteth the glory of die sun. All things also that appertain unto it arc already proscribed by your former instruction.

3SG0J is the beginning of all things, but not after one sort, nor to every one alike. But there are three manners of working with His name: 1: in respect of dignification; * 2: in respect of conciliation; * 3: in respect to the end & determined operation. 5jNow as to what and would you wear your characters, &c. But how do I teach ? The character is an instrument applicable only to dignification. But there is no dignification but that which doth proceed and hath his perfect composition centrally in die square number of 3 & 4, the center whereof and shall be equal to the greatest Hereby you may gather not only to what end, the blessed character (wherewith thou shall be dignified) is prepared, but also the name of all other characters.

SffThe table is the instrument of conciliation, and so arc proper to every* King and Prince, according to their order.

j^Now as co the last, concerning the end and determination. It only consisteth in the mercy of God and the characters of these books- Set down the Kings and their Princes in a table, as thou knowest them, with their letters backward (excepting their “B’s”) from the right hand to die left. Let Bobogel be the first and Bomogo his prince, &c.|

on my character or lamen of dignification arc all the names of the seven kings and all the seven princes, perfect as in the great table, the “B’s” only being the first letter common to them all, kept back, but in memory.

jSThcrc came in 40 white creatures, all in white silk long robes, and they were like children. And all of them, falling on their knees, said: Thou only art holy among the highest: Oh God, thy Name be blessed forever.

sS.Michxl then stood up out of his chair and, by & by.all his legs seemed to be like two pillars of brass, and he was as high as halfway up to heaven. And, by and by, his sword was all on fire. And he shook and drew his sword over the heads of all these 40 and they fell down. Then Michael spake to Scmicl with a thundering voice:

MICH AH

SEMIEL

MMichacl shook over them with his sword and they all fell down (and Uriel also) on their knees. And commonly at the striking with the sword, flaming fire like lightning, did flash.

CHAPTER IV

SOME NOTICE of the PECULIAR FORMS & ATTIRE WHEREIN the KINGS, PRINCES

& MINISTERS HEPTARCHICAL APPEARED

& SOME of THEIR ACTIONS

& GESTURES at THEIR APPEARANCE

KING CARMARA

HIS King (being called first by Uriel) appeared as a man, very well proportioned and clad in a long purple robe with a triple crown of gold upon his head.

SSAt his first coming he bad seven spirits (like men) waiting on him. which afterwards declared themselves to be die seven

Princes Heptarchical.

jSUricl delivered unto this King (at his first appearing) a rod, or straight little round staff of gold, divided into three equal distinctions, whereof two were dark or black and the third bright red. This rod he kept still in his hand.

XThis king only was the orderer or disposer of all the doctrine, which I term Heptarchical, and the first practitioner thereof calling die seven Princes and after that the seven Kings, and and by giving instruction for use and practice of the whole doctrine Heptarchical. For the first purpose and fiuit to be enjoyed by me, of the two other, there was only mention made.

3$King Carmara said: This is the sign of the unrk and there appeared the letters ’C* and ’B’ reversed on a white flag with a woman standing by, whose arms did not appear. On the other

side of the flag appeared the coat of arms of England as on the

old flag:

PRINCE HAGONEL

jSNotc that all the Princes seemed to be men, and to have red robes, but this Prince had a robe that was shorter than the others. 3SA11 the princes had circlets of gold on their heads rather chan crowns or coronets. This Prince held in die palm of his right hand a round ring with a point or prick in the midst, hanging also over his middle fingers, which he aifirmed to be his seal and said that the name of it was Barces:

SoAlI the princes held up together a seven -pointed star that seemed

to be of copper:

The Subjects and Servants to Prince Hagonel

The Sons of Light

jSThc seven Sons of Light appeared like seven young men, all with bright countenance, apparelled in white, with white silk on their heads. Every one seemed to have a metalic ball in his hand, the first of gold, die second of silver, the third of copper, the fourth of tin, the fifth of iron, the sixth tossed between his two hands a^ round thing of quicksilver, the lasr had a ball of lead. The first had on his breast a round tablet of gold and on ir written a great ’1’. And the second, on his golden tablet, had his name also written. And every one orderly coming forth, showed their names upon their golden tablets. At their departing they made cunsy and mounted up to Heaven.

The Sons of the Sons of Light

SaThe Sons of the Sons of Light appeared like seven little children, like boys covered all with purple, with hanging sleeves, like the sleeves on priests’ or scholars’ gowns. Their heads were attired all after the former manner with purple silk. They had three -cornered tablets on their breasts, and these tablets seemed to be very green and on them the letters of their names were written. The first had two letters made thus of an ’E’ and an *L’ or ’E-’. The}’ made reverences to Michael (who had called them) and so mounted up to heavenwards.

The 42 Ministers of Prince Hagonel

MAt the rail of King Carmara (during the second handling of this Heptarchical dodrine), when he said Come, repeat the works of God, there appeared Prince Hagonel, and after that followed 42, who said We are prepared to serve our God. Each of these

had somewhat in their hands as they stood in this order, and Hagonel seemed to embrace the company:

SSSix of these seemed more glorious than the rest and their coats were longer; they had circlets of gold around their heads and held in their hands perfect crowns of gold. The second six had three quarters of crowns in their hands. The third six had robes or clothes in their hands. All the rest seemed to have balls of gold, which they tossed from one to another, but at the catching they seemed empty windballs, for they grasped them by closing their hands, as if they were not solid but empty like a blown bladder. The first six made curtsy to Prince Hagonel, the second six made curtsy to the first, and the third to the second. And they all, with Prince Hagonel, made curtsy to King Carmara. SlEach of the 42 stood upon a table, and upon every table was bur a single letter. The first minister of the first six did go away and in his table appeared the letter ’O’ and so of the rest. But die third six cowered down and was loath to show their tables, but ar lengdi did. The third row went off, lamenting, being commanded by the Prince. All departed in fire, falling into the globe. The fifth row’, too, did sink into the Globe, every one in a sundry fire by himself. The sixth row fell with smoke down into the globe. Thus was revealed the following table:

jSKing Carmaha said: Remember how they stood when they were secondly disposed unto dice. They stood first in six rows, and next they were turned into seven. I speak of the greater number and not of the lesser, for in speaking of the greater I have comprehended the lesser*.

* Dee’s note: There arc but 6 names that are in subjection to the Prince. The first seven next him are these which held the fair and beautiful crowns. The first seven are called by those names that thou seest: Ozs... &c This diversity of reckoning by 6 and 7,1 cannot yet reconcile.

KING BOBOGEL

3SHe appeared in a black velvet coat; and his hose was close round hose with velvet upperstocks, overlayed with gold lace. On his head was a velvet hat or cap with a black feather in it. A cape was hanging on one of his shoulders, and his purse was hanging about his neck. Hung upon his girdle was a rapier. His beard was long, and he liad bloomers and slippers. And he said, I wear these robes not in respect of myself but of my Government.]

THE 42 MINISTERS

SSOf his 42 ministers, die first seven had circlets of gold on their heads, and the King Babalel called Befafes saying: Co/ne Prince oj the Seven Princes, who are Princes over the waters. Every one of the 42 had a letter on his forehead. They were seven in a row; and six downward. But of the first seven, the letters became to be between their forte; and die water secmeth continually to pass over these letters. The first seven took the water and threw it upwards and it became clouds. The second threw it upwards and it became snow, &c. The 42 dived into the water and so vanished away. And Babalel and Befafes also were suddenly gone. Their names and characters appeared to be these, which follow in the squares.

*blc and invisible: Now, (even now, at length,) among other Thy manifold mercies used, and to be used toward me, Thy simple servant, John Dee, I most humbly beseech Thee, in this my present petition to have mercy upon me, to have pity upon me, to have compassion upon me. L faithfully and sincerely, of long rime, have sought among men, in Earth, and also by prayer (full oft and pitifully) have made suit unto Thy Divine Majesty for the obtaining of some convenient portion of True Knowledge and Understanding of Thy laws and ordinances, established in the natures and properties of Thy Creaures: By which Knowledge, Thy Divine Wisdom, Power and Goodness, (on Thy Creatures bestowed and to them imparted), being to me made and allure me, (for the same) incessantly to pronounce Thy praises, to render unto Thee, most hearty thanks, to advance Thy true honour, and to win unto Thy Name, some of Thy due Majestic Glory, among all people, and forever. And, whereas, it hath pleased Thee (O God) of Thy infinite Goodness, by Thy faithful and holy Spiritual Messengers, to deliver unto me, long since (through the eye and ear of E. K.) an orderly form, and manner of exercise Heptarchical: How, (to Thy Honour and Glory, and the Comfort of my own poor soul, and of others, Thy faithful sen-ants,) I may, at all times, use very many of Thy

good Angels, their counsels and helps; according to the properties of such their functions, and offices, as to them, by Thy Divine Power, Wisdom and Goodness, is assigned, and limited: (Which orderly form, and manner of exercise, until even now, I never found opportunity and extreme necessity, to apply myself unto,) Therefore, I thy poor, and simple servant, do most humbly, heartily, and faithfully beseech Thy Divine Majesty, most lovingly and fatherly to favour: and by Thy Divine Beck to further this my present industry and endeavour to exercise myself, according to the forcsaid orderly forme and manner: And, now, (at length, but not too late) for Thy dearly beloved Son Iesus Christ His sake, (O Heavenly Father) to grant also unto me, this blessing and portion of Thy heavenly Graces: That Thou wilt forthwith, enable me, make me apt and acceptable, (in body, soul, and spirit) to enjoy always the holy and friendly conversation, with the sensible, plain, full, and perfect help, in word and deed, of Thy Mighty, Wise, and Good Spiritual Messengers and Ministers generally: and, namely, of Blessed Michael, Blessed Gabriel, Blessed Raphxl, and Blessed Uriel; and also especially, of all those, which do appertain unto the Heptarchical Mystery, rheurgically, (as yet) and very briefly unto me declared: under the method of Seven Mighty Kings, and their Seven Faithful and Princely Ministers, w*ith their subjects and servants, to them belonging. And in this Thy great Mercy and Grace, on me bestowed, and to me confirmed, (O Almighty God,) Thou shale, (to the great comfort of Thy faithful servants,) approve, to Thy very enemies, and mine, the truth and certainty of Thy manifold, most mercifill promises, heretofore, made unto me: And that Thou art the True and Almighty God, Creator of Heaven and Earth, (upon whom I do call and in whom I put all my trust,) and Thy Ministers, to be the true, and frithful Angels of light: which have, hitherto, principally, and according to Thy

Divine providence dealt with us: And, also, I, thy poor and simple servant, shall then, In and By Thee, be better able to serve Thee, according to Thy well pleasing: to Thy Honour and Glory: Yea, even in these most miserable, and lamentable days. Grant, Oh grant, O our Heavenly Father, grant this, (I pray Thee,) for Thy only begotten Son Iesus Christ, His sake: Amen, Amen, Amen.

ySThe Jour triads are the Names of Gad extracted from the four lines of the holy spirit, which govern all creatures on the earth (both visible and invisible). They are carried upon twelve banners.

CTIAPTEB IV

THE FUNDAMENTAL OBESANCE

*

This is the fundamental ohcsana to God, and the conjuration for obtaining the benign ministry of the good angels.

LEOVAH ZEBAOTH, I, John Dee (your unwoi-thy servant) most earnestly invoke and call upon your divine power, wisdom. and goodness. I humbly and faithfully seek your favour and assistance

to me in all my deeds, words, and thoughts, and in the promoting, procuring, and mingling of your praise, honour, and glory. Through these, your twelve mystical Names: Oro, Lbah, Aozpi, Mor, Dial, Hctca, Oip, Tea a, Pdoce, Mph, Arsl, Gaiol, I conjure and pray most zealously to your divine and omnipotent majesty, that all your angelic spirits (whose mystical names are contained in this book, and whose offices are herein briefly noted) might be called from any and all parts of the universe, or at any time in my life, through the special domination and controlling power of your holy Names (which arc also in this book). Let them come most quickly to me. Let them appear visibly, friend-ily, and peacefully to me. Let them remain visible according to my will. Let them vanish from me and from my sight when I so request. Let them give reverence and obedience before you and your 12 mystical Names. I command that they happily satisfy me in all things and at all times in my life, by accomplishing each and every one of my petitions—if not by one means, then by another—goodly, virtuously, and perfectly, with an excellent and thorough completeness, according to their virtues and powers, both general and unique, and by Your united ministry and office O God . Amen.

Through you, Jesu Christe, Amen

APPENDICES

Appendix A

THE PRACTICE OF ENOCHIAN EVOCATION

*

jfo gjj HERE ARE NO DESCRIPTIONS IN Dee’s EXTANT DIARIES OF ft vft actual Enochian evocation rituals, a fad that has led some scholars to conclude that he never attempted the magic. The existence, however, of artifacts such as the wax sigils of .Emeth in the British museum indicate that Dec, at the very least, constructed some of the requisite furniture. In addition. Dee compiled Sloane MS. 3191 (the primary source for The Enochian Evocation) to be a working collection of conjurations for use in magical ceremonies. Although it is possible that Dee never went through with rhe experiments, it is for more likely that he recorded the events in a separate diary that has not survived. Dee was a rabid diarist, and kept at least three concurrent diaries during the period that he was working with Kelly, each diary covering a different aspect of his life. It would be well in character for Dee to initiate a special diary for the practice of the ’radical truths’ that he had sought for so many years.

There arc many clues chat assist in uncovering the operative portions of this arcane branch of magical lore. Sloane ms. 3191, for example , delineates the portions of Enochian evocation that Dee thought were most essential. Other clues are scattered throughout the surviving diaries. Dee describes many scyring sessions, and it is unlikely that the Enochian rituals differed very greatly from those he practiced with his servers. In addition, many passages from die scrying sessions contain hints and instructions concerning Enochian evocation. Another valuable source of information is the body of magical literature that was available to Dec and Kelly. The effect of Agrippa, for example, upon Dee’s philosophical outlook is obvious, and many aspects of Enochian evocation are dependant upon the world-view of

Mn

the renaissance Magi. Also, Kelly’s involvement in black magic indicates influence from other magical texts. When all these sources of information are gathered together, a coherent picture emerges of the practice of Enochian evocation.

_ ¥

This appendix discusses:

  • I. The personnel & apparel required for the rituals.

  • 2. The furniture and construction of the temple.

  • 3. The book of prayers & conjurations.

  • 4. The Angelic hierarchies

  • 5. The talismans for the Angelic hierarchies.

  • 6. The scheduling of the ceremonies.

  • <£L Personnel

Enochian rituals were practiced by two people, a Magus and Scryer. The Magus chanted the conjurations, compelling the Angels (by the power of the Names of God) to appear within the crystal stone. The Scyrer gazed into die crystal and related his visions. The Magus doubled as scribe, recording the visions and the results of the ceremony.

Both Scryer and Magus were expected to lead holy lives (at least while practicing the magic), to cultivate piety and humility, and to abstain from the practice of black magic. During the ceremonies, both were dressed in white linen robes, and the magus wore a magical ring with a gold seal (as shown in Book Two). Other renaissance magical texts recommend that the Magus wear a crown and carry a magical wand and or sword, but none of these are mentioned in Dee’s work.

  • <T II. Furniture

Betore practicing Enochian evocation, the Magus and Scryer located or constructed the following items:

  • I. A crystal ball This was handled only by the magus or the scryer. Dec’s was rather small, about two inches in diameter.

  • 2. A circular wax tablet, 9 inches in diameter and 1.5 inches thick, inscribed on the front with the sigil of /Emeth and on the back with a cross. These designs are shown in Book Two. The center of the front was hollowed out slightly, so that

the crystal ball could easily be placed on top o£ the Sigil.

  • 3. Four wax tablets, about 4 inches in diameter, similarly inscribed.

  • 4. A red silk ’rug’, two yards square.

  • 5. A red and green (or multi-coloured) tablecloth, about 1.5 yards square, with tassles at each comer.

  • 6. A table constructed of ’sweet wood’ [cedar?] a yard (two cubits) square, with yard long legs. Each leg terminated with a hollow cylinder, slightly more than 4 inches on the inside diameter and about 0.5 inches thick. The basic structure of this table is shown in Book Two; because of in low profile, two wooden stools were probably also necessary. A set of elaborate sigils were to be painted in yellow oils on the top surface of the table. The arrangement of these sigils is too complex to be reproduced in this volume, but can be found in The True Relation between the Preface and the first book, on the page labeled ’The Holy Table’.

  • 7. Twelve banners or flags each embroidered with a Name of God as shown in Book Five.

This furniture was arranged into a temple where Enochian evocation could be practiced. This may have been intended to be in the open air rather than within a building, as there are no descriptions of candles or torches. Furthermore, the magical circle specifics ’Terra’ [Earth], which may or may not have been intended symbolically.

The temple was constructed in die following manner:

  • 1. The place of working was enclosed by a circle as shown in Book Five, Chapter Three. The banners were propped at the circle’s edge.

  • 2. The red silk rug was laid in the center of the circle.

  • 3. The four small wax tablets were arranged in a square pattern in the center of the silk rug, 1 yard square.

  • 4. The table was balanced upon the wax tablets, so that the hollow cylinders at the end of the table legs overlapped them.

  • 5. The large wax tablet was placed on the center ot the table.

  • 6. The silk tablecloth was draped over the able, covering the large wax tablet, so that the tassles dangled almost to the floor.

  • 7. The crystal was laid on the top of the tablecloth, balanced on the indentation in the wax tablet.

Q III. The Magical Book

The Magus was required to have a book in which prayers and conjurations were recorded for use within the temple. For the complete practice of Enochian evocation, it probably would have had the following contents:

§1: Prayers

The Oration to God—as shown in Book Two, Chapter Five.

The Prayer of Enoch—as shown in Book One, Chapter Two.

The Fundamental Obesance—as shown in Book Five, Chapter Four.

§2. Conjurations

The Heptarchtc Conjurations—formed by inserting the specific attributes of each King and Prince (as shown in Book Two, Chapter Seven) with the generalized conjuration (as shown in Book Two, Chapter Six).

The Angelical Keys—as shown in Book Three. These were to be written in both Angelical and English. Note chat the last key was to be repeated 30 times, with the third word altered to indicate the Aire being worked. In Sloane MS. 3191, the the various Aires are listed in the margin. The individual names of the Aires are given in Book Four, Column Four.

The Invitations to the Angels of the Quarters—as shown in Book Five, Chapters Five through Thirteen.

The ordering of Dee’s workbooks suggests that he intended a certain cross-semination of the earlier (Hcptarchic) and later (Angelical) systems. In any case, the magical book is described in Dee’s diaries as consisting first of the invocation of the Names of God and second of the invocation of the Angels, by the Names of God— an ordering is preserved in the contents above.

Note that, uniikc other renaissance magical systems, Enochian evocation does not include a ’Dismissal’ or ’Licence to Depart’, a conjuration designed to send a spirit back to its dwelling place. Dec evidently felt this to be unnecessary, although most renaissance Magi would have considered this omission dangerous.

<T rv. The Angels

Enochian evocation was believed to summon three interrelated hierarchies of angels:

  • 1. The Heptarchical Royalty—who were believed to govern all earthly actions, & disperse of the will of the Creator. One conjured them to obtain knowledge of God truly, the number and doings of His Angels perfectly and the beginning and ending of Nature substantially. These Angels were based upon the 7 planets and the 7 days of the week.

  • 2. The Angels of the Aires—who were believed co rule over the various countries of the earth. One conjured them to subvert whole countries without armies, to get the favour oj all the (human) Princes, & to know the secret treasure of the waters, and the unknown caves of the earth. These Angels were based on the 12 houses of the Zodiac and the 30 Aires, which were evidently subdivisions of the ’vault of stars’ in which the ’fixed stars’ were believed to reside.

  • 3. The Angels of the Quarters—who were believed to have been put onto the earth so that the Devil's envious will might be bridled, the determinations of God fulfilled, and his creatures kept and preserved. One conjured them to obtain a variety of semidivine powers and capabilities. These Angels were based upon the 4 Elements and the 4 compass points.

Thus Enochian evocation consisted of a complete panoply of magical art, covering planetary, zodiacal, and elementaloperations and reputed to control hundreds of named and thousands of unnamed Angelic creatures. Because of the complexity of these Angelic hierarchies, I shall discuss each in detail.

  • §1 . The Heptarchical Royalty

The Heptarchical Royalty arc described in Book Two, Chapter Four, and were believed to rule over the days of the week and die planets. The relationship of the primary Heptarchical hierarchy is shown in the following figure

Note that the ’Son of die Sons’ Hagonel had a different sigil dun Prince Hagonel and thus was a different angelic personage.

The names of the 42 ministers were generated from the each table by starting with each letter and continuing rightwards to the end of the tabic, then looping around to the beginning. This made six sets of seven ministers per day, each set ruling for four hours [beginning at midnight]. For example, the 42 ministers for Prince baganol (Friday’) are

I2AM— 4AM 4 AM— 8am 8 AM—I2PM

I2P.M— 4PM 4PM— 8pm 8PM—12AM

The Heptarchical Royalty also included a set of 49 planetary angels, of whom 14 were the Kings and Princes for the days. The *TabIe of the 49 Good Angels' at the close of Book Two shows the primary planetary attribution of each of these entities. Curiously, the planetary attributions of the Kings were the only ones that matched the traditional linking of the days of the week with the planets. By extrapolation, it is likely that each angel had a double attribution as follows:

  • §2 . The Angels of the Aires

The 91 principal Angels of the Aires arc listed in tabular form in Book Four.

Column One gives rhe name of the country over which each Angel rules. These are based on Ptolemy’s Geography.

Column Two gives the name of each Angel, which is die same as the name of the pan of the Earth as imposed by God.

Column Three gives the sigil for each AngeL These are derived from the Great Table of the Quarters, by connecting the letters that spell the Angel’s name. Note that ’Paraoan’ is an ’overlay’ using letters belonging to other Angels, (beginning with the ’P’ in Parziba) and that ’Lexarph’, ’Com anas’, and ’Tabitom’ arc generated from the central cross. ’Lexarph uses the ’L’ at the bottom right comer of the Western quarter. These sigils are not given in Sloane ms. 3191, but are included here for completeness. Note also that a sigil is given in the table for an entity Laxdizl which is not in the 91 Aires.

Column Four gives the Aire in which the Angel dwells. These are evidently similar to the layers of Heaven described in Gnostic texts. The order LIL is the highest and TEX is the lowest; note that the Holy Land is governed by LIL.

Column Five gives the number of servitor Angels (ministers) that arc controlled by each Angel.

Column Six gives the total of all the Angels ruling in each Aire. Column Seven gives the names of the Angelic Kings that rule over each Angel. There is one King per sign of the Zodiac:

  • 1. Olpaced for Scorpio, 2. Ziracah for Aquarius, 3. Hononol for Leo, 4. Zarnaah for Gemini, 5. Gebabal for Libra, 6. Zurchol for Pisces, 7. Alpudus for Cancer, 8. Caddamp for Sagittarius, 9. Zarzdlg for Virgo, 10. Lavavoth for Aries, 11. Zlncgen for Capricorn & 12. Arfalog for Taurui.

Column Eight gives die tribe of Israel that corresponds to the Angelic King and each sign of the Zodiac.

Column Nine gives the compass points that should be faced when invoking each angel.

  • §3 . The Angh.s of the Quarters

The Angels of the Quarters are listed in detail at the beginning of Chapters Five through Thirteen of Book Five. A cursor,' examination of the crosses on the tables accompaning each ’Invitation’ [conjuration] reveals how these names are generated. Many of the Angels have dual names—presumably both are correct, as both are used in the invitations.

The names of the cacodcmons in Chanters Six through Nine are generated by taking a letter from the central cross of the Great Table, and combining it with the first two letters of each Angel’s name. For example, the cacodcmon Xcz is formed by taking the ’X’ in Exabp and combining it with the ’Cz’ in Czns or Czons. These cacodemons are the only vestige of black magic in Dee’s evocation system, other than the stipulation that the word Vaoan in the first Angelical key is to be altered to Vooan w’hen conjuring evil spirits.

(TV. Talismans

The use of various talismans were considered necessary for the practice of evocation magic in general, and were probably used for Enochian evocation as well. Only one Enochian talisman has survived: a beautiful gold disk in the British Museum. A True Relation shows an engraving of his disk on page preceding The Holy Table; the talisman commemorates a vision that Kelly had of the Angels of the Quarters:

A Vision. The sign of the love of God toward his faithful. Four sumptuous and belUgerant Castles, out of the which sounded Trumpets thrice.

3$ The sign of Majesty, the Cloth of the passage was cast forth.

Si In the East, the cloth red; aftet the new smitten blood

3$ In the South, the cloth white. Lilly-colour

  • 33 In the West a cloth, the skins of many Dragons, green; garlic bladed.

38 In the North, the cloth, Hair-coloured, Bilbery juyce.

The Trumpets sound once. The gates open. The four Castles are moved. There issueth 4 Trumpeters, whose Trumpets are a Pyramis, six cones, wreathed. There followeth out of every Castle 3, holding up their Banners displayed, with ensigne, die Names of God. There follow Seniors six, alike from the four Gates: After them cometh from every part a King: whose Princes are Jive, gardant, and holding up his train. Next issueth the Crosse of 4 angels, of the Majesty of Creation xn God attended upon everyone, with 4: a white Cloud, 4 Crosses, bearing the witnesses of the Covenant of God, with the Prince gone out before; which were confirmed, everyone, with ten .Angels, visible in countenance; After every Crosses, atlendeth 16 Angels, disposers of the will of those, that govern the Castles. They proceed. And, in and about the middle of the Court, the Ensigns keep their standings, opposite to the middle of the Gate: The rest pause. The 24 Senators meet: They seem to consult. It vanisheth.

Although the use for the gold disk is not known, it may have been worn as a protective amulet during the Enochian evocation ritual

The Magus was definitely required to construct a talisman for each group of Angels that he wished to conjure. These were made of ’sweet wood’, with the characters ’painted’ upon them. The talismans were held in the hand as thou shall have cause to use them, implying that the Magus held them during the prayers. During the conjurations, however, thy feet must be placed upon these tables, indicating that rhe Magus’ dominance over the Angels was signified by his standing upon the Talisman.

Although none of these talismans appear to have survived, the talismanic methods of Agrippa can be applied to de\-ise probable reconstructions of these important ceremonial objects.

  • §1 . Talismans for the Hept archical Royalty

Although this hierarchy includes several hundred entities, only the prince of each day and the Sons of the Sons of Light actually have their own signatures or sigils. Evidently this means that a single talisman was to be constructed for each day, with an extra one for King C armara and Prince Hagonel. The following sample represents a speculative reconstruction of the talisman for the conjuration of the Angels of Friday:

  • §2 . Talismans for the Angels of the Aires

Each of the 91 Princes has his [or her] own signature, which clearly implies that 91 separate talismans were to be constructed. The Angelic Kings of die Zodiac have no signatures, which indicates that their name alone (like the magical Names of God) carried the requisite power to invoke their influence.

None of the Angels of the Quarters have their own signatures, a fact that would seem to indicate the relatively exalted status of

these entities. The following sample represents a speculative reconstruction of the talisman for the conjuration of the Angels of Transformation that dwell in the West:

  • §4 . Enochian Leiters

lr is possible that, rather than Roman letters, the ’Enochian’ alphabet was to be used to draw up the talismans (although no Enochian letters appear in Sloane ms. 3191). There arc several versions of this magical alphabet in Dee’s diaries; the following version appears to be a script rendition, as it is much easier to write with a quill pen than the sigil-like letters that appear later in Dee’s notes.

<T VI. The Ceremonies

After the furniture, book, and talisman had been prepared, the following schedule was co be kept:

  • 1. First Four Days—prayers were fervently spoken three times daily.

  • 2. Next Fourteen Days—while continuing with the prayers, conjurations were added co the agenda.

  • 3. The Fifteenth Day—at this point the prayers and conjurations were believed to become effective, and the Angels were supposed to appear within the crystal.

Once die Angels had appeared, it was no longer considered necessary to go through the entire repetory to conjure them. Once successfully conjured, the Angels were to remain obedient to the Magus for the remainder of his life.

It is probable that some cross-semination might have been intended, for example, using the first 18 Keys as preliminary conjurations co summoning the Angels of the Quarters. Dee also tended to punctuate his scrying sessions with readings from the Bible; Psalm 33 is mentioned specifically.

Appendix B TRANSLATOR’S NOTES

The Story of the Manuscripts

IM MHE survival of the magical manuscripts of John Dee was an accident, or more accurately, a scries of accidents and coincidences that rival in strangeness die subject matter that the manuscripts contain.

Even while they were being written, certain of the most essential manuscripts were almost destroyed. Although the incident and the motivations behind it are not mentioned in any of the extant diaries, Dee describes their reappearance:

I espied... a sheet offaire white paper lying tossed to and fro in the wind. I rose and went up to it and there I found three of my Books lying, which were so diligently burnt the tenth day of April last. The three books were: I. Enoch his Book, 2. The 48 Claves Angelica;, 3. Liber Scientia terrestris auxilii & vict-orire.*[Additional manuscripts were then discovered to be:] in the back of the furnace ... the hole which was not greater than the thickness of a brick, f

Perhaps to prevent further mishaps, Dee later secreted a number of the more important manuscripts in the false bottom of a cedar chest, whose lock and hinges [u”erc] extraordinarily neat, where they remained hidden for over 50 years. The chest was sold at the auction following Dee's death to one Mr. John Woodall, and eventually found its way into a furniture shop in Adie Street on London. A Mr. Jones, confectioner, bought it for his wife, and for twenty years the chest with its secret treasure remained in her boudoir. Then one day, upon moving the chest, Mrs. Tones heard some loose thing rattle it, toward the right hand end, under the box or till. Her husband pried open the bottom, revealing a private drawer, which being drawn out, therein were found diverse books

rn manuscript and papers, together until a little box, and therein a chaplet of olive beads, and a cross of wood hanging at the end of them.* Ignorant of the value of the papers, they allowed their servant maid to waste about one half of mem under pies, and other like uses but later kept the rest more safe. Four years later, Mrs. Jones was forced to flee the great fire or"London and, though the chest perished in the flames, because nor easily to be removed, yet the books were taken out and carried with the rest of her goods. She later remarried a Mr. Wale, who identified the manuscripts and transferred them to Elias Ashmole, a respected scholar, for transcription and preservation.^

Elias Ashmolc also preserved a number of Dee’s diaries (December 22, 1581 to May 23, 1583) that were in the library of one Samuel Story. Yet another 17th Century scholar. Meric Casaubon discovered [and published in the True Relation] additional diaries from April 20,1583 to May 23,1587 in the library of Sir Thomas Cotton, who had inherited them from his father, Sir Robert Cotton, one of Dee’s contemporaries. Casaubon also located a very rare fragment of Dee’s diaries from late in his life (March 20, 1607 to September 7, 1607), which had been underground. Cod knows how long.]

The preservation of Dec’s manuscripts by Ashmolc & Casaubon illustrates that the importance of Dee’s manuscripts was already recognized within 50 years of his death. These manuscripts have had an enormous effect upon the development of occultism in Great Britian and the United States. An interesting fragment, included at the back of Sloane MS.3677 (Ashmole’s copy of Sloane ms. 3188), describes the finding of treasure using magical names from the Enochian system. From internal references and style of handwriting, we know that this fragment dates from the mid-iyth Century, indicating that the Enochian magical system was maintained in practical use after Dee’s death. It is possible that elements of the system may have been introduced into the Rosicrucian teachings by Ashmole; in any case magicians of later centuries have constructed elaborate additions to Dec’s original system.

GENERAL METHOD OF TRANSLATION & TRANSCRIPTION

The entire corpus of Dee’s magical work is far too large to present in a single volume. The Enochian Evocation is intended to present the essential core of Dee’s evocation system arranged in a fashion similar to other renaissance evocation texts. It was transcribed, translated and edited according to the following procedure:

  • I. Manuscripts copies were obtained in microfilm from the British Library.

  • 2. The various manuscripts were cross-compared to differentiate between essential and non-essential portions. The first level of cross-comparison was performed at this time.

  • 3. The textual material from the essential portions of the manuscripts was transcribed.

  • 4. Latin portions were translated.

  • 5. The resulting corpus was subjected to further cross-comparison and linguistic analysis, and arranged to resemble a typical evocation text of the renaissance.

  • 6. The text was edited for consistancy and clarity.

  • 7. The various sigils and figures for the text were carefully traced and restored from microfilm prints of the source manuscripts.

  • 8. To clarify discrepancies, I traveled to London and examined Sloane ms. 3191 personally at the British Library.

  • 9. The resulting material was brought to completion and published by Hcptangle Books.

Notes on Book One

Book One consists of excerpts from four of Dee’s diaries, all contained in Cotton Appendix xivi and published in the True Relation:

Mensis Mysticus Saobaticus Pars primus ejusdem , op. cit. 73-114 Libri Mystid Apertorii Craeoviensis Sabbatid, op. cit., II5-152 Libri Scmptimi Apertorii Craeoviensis Mystid Sabbatid, op. dt., 153-202

Libri Craeoviensis Mysticus Apertorius Prateria Pnemium Maditnian-um, op. cit., 203-212

The intent of Book One is to provide the pseudo-history of the magic as related by Kelly’s angels, as well as hints as to its purpose and practice. Nearly even' renaissance magical text contains such a ’pedigree’, which is entirely lacking in Sloane MS. 3191.

Notes on Book T wo

Book Two consists primarily of De Heptarchia Mystiea, which is contained in Sloane ms. 3191, 32(10] to 5l[ro|. The sigil of jEmcth, the ring of Solomon, and the table arc Horn Mysteriorum Liber Primus in Sloane ms. 3188. The first three chapters of De Heptarchia Mystiea (as presented in ms. 3191) contain cross-references to dates in Sloane MS. 3188; these have been omitted as unnecessary. Sloane MS. 3677 and Sloane MS. 3678 (Elias Ashmole’s copies of mss. 3188 and 3199 respectively) were also used for additional readings.

Notes on Book Three

Book Three is based upon the 49 Claves Angelica, contained in Sloane ms. 3191, i[ro] to 13 [ro]. Because so many versions of the Angelical Keys have been published in the past, I have taken a different approach in the present volume.

The tint coin tn n of Book Tliree contains a cross-reference number for each Angelical word, showing the key that it is in, as well as its numerical position in that key. The second column shows a corrected version of the Enochian, the result of extensive cross-comparison and linguistic analysis. Corrections based upon Nn

Cotton Appendix XLVI have been incorporated, as well as simple corrections based on common-sense grammatical rules. Variants from Sloane MS. 3191 reading have been documented in footnotes, except where the correction was sufficiently obvious.§ Presumably an even more self-consistent version of the keys could be generated with further cross analysis. Column 2 represents what I believe to be the logical limit of amendation; further corrections would deviate too greatly from the keys as dictated by Kelly.

Column 3 contains an exact transcrip tion of the Angelical version of the keys in Sloane ms. 3191; the pronunciation marks are Dee’s own, Coumn 4 contains an exact transcription of the English version of the keys in Sloane MS. 3191; the punctuation and spelling is Dee's own. Lacume in die text are described in the footnotes. Note that Sloane ms. 3191 shows the Angelical left to right, with the English written above. I have returned the format to that used in Cotton Appendix xlvi—a downwardly enumerated matched list.

Additional readings for Book Three were taken from Sloane MS. 3678 (Ashmole’s copy of Sloane ms. 3191) and the following books from Sloane MS. 3188:

Notes or. Book Four

Book Four is the first part of die Liber Sdenticr Auxilii et P7tf-oria Terrestris, contained in Sloane ms. 3191, 14[ro] to 31 [to]. The biblical quotes at the beginning refer obviously to the figure showing the ordering of the tribes of IsrxL In Sloane ms. 3191* this figure appears on 31(10]- I have redrawn it with English captions and inserted it next to the quotes that refer to it. The large table of sigils at the end of Book Four is actually [57V0] & 58 [ro] in Sloane ms. 3191; since the sigils refer directly to the

§ An early version of the corrected keys appeared in Gnostics Msgazu* Number 47, September 197$-

third and fourth columns of the lists in Book Four, 1 have included it here as a bridge into Book Five. These sigils are overlays to the Great Table in Book Five.

Notes on Book Five

Book Five is taken from the remainder o( Liber Scientia following De Hcptardtia Mfstica in Sloane MS. 3191, 52 [ro] to [8ovoj. The Great Table (not to be confused with the ’Great Table* published in the preface to the True Relation) proposed some interesting transcription problems. Sloane ms. 3191 contains three variants (if you include the sigils shown in Book Four), while two additional variants are given in Cotton Appendix xlvi. Within all the variant tables are corrections, slashed letters, and amendations, indicating a series of changes. The problem lies in that the final version (which wasn’t completed until 1587, three years after die original table was dictated) does not match the names of the angels as given in Sloane ms. 3191. I have therefore chosen to give two versions of the table, the first matching rhe angels, and the second representing the final corrections made in 1587. The intermediary versions I have omitted as unessential. The ambitious scholar is free to retrofit the angelic names to the ’corrected’ table, as it is sufficiently obvious how’ each name is generated from the cable.* It should be noted that my presentation of this able as two seperate versions departs significandy from the Golden Dawn tradition of including all the variant letters in each square. I judged this approach as unsatisfactory, because every otlier ’magic square’ in renaissance magic contains only one element per square, and because many of the letters included in the G. D. version are clearly scratched out in rhe original manuscript The tables in the present volume represent what I believe to be an accurate portrayal of what Dec and Kelly intended. The breakdown of Book Five into individual chapters is not in Sloane MS. 3191, but the material lends itself well to this approach, as there are distinct sets of tables and conjurations.

The Sloane and Cotton collections arc in the British Library. The Bodcleian and Ashmolean collections are at Oxford.

Sloane ms. 3191.

This manuscript is the only book of ceremonial magic extant in Dee’s handwriting. It consists of three separate ’books,’ each detailing a different aspect of Dee’s angelic magical system. The books arc:—

49 Claves Angelica Anno 1584 Cracovia (Liber 18) which contains Dec’s transcription of the Angelical Keys (often called the the Enochian Keys or Enochian Calls.

Liber Sdcntia Auxilii et Victoria Terrestris which contains a complex system of magic based upon the Great Table (often called The Table of Watchtowers). It is entirely in Latin, and related to die Call of the Thirty Aires.

De Heptarchia Mystica which describes a complete system of planetary magic, along with excerpts from die various scrying sessions.
