Reading: Sefer Raziel HaMalakh (Book of Raziel)

[2 r ] In noie Dei potentis vibi et veri et aeterni &c

In the name of Almighty God living and very and everlasting and w th out all and w ch is said

Adonay Saday

Ehye Asereye I begin to write this booke w ch is said

Sephar Raziel w th all his appertenances in w ch be seven treatises complete or fulfilled that is vii bookes.

Dixit Salomon Gloria et laus et cu multo honore &c

Salomon said glory and praysing w th much honor be to

God of all Creatures, he that is singular w ch made all things at one tyme. And he is one God very mighty he alone that is and that was and w ch evermore shall be, and w ch has never an end or any like him neither is he like to have. And he is singular w th out end, Lord alone w th out corruption, holy cleane meeke and great all things seeing and hearing and wise and in all things mighty. And I begin this booke to put an ynsample that whosoever that hath it blame it not till he have red and heard all or somewhat of it, and then prayse the God maker of all things.

These be the ix precepts Incipiunt praecepta

Heere beginneth the precepts

Ne credas esse plures insi unu singulare &c but one singular alone upon all things w ch hath none like him and him love w th all dread and honor w th all trust and w th good will and stable and w th might and w th all they cleane 2. heart. Ne live thou not w th out lawe, and thou shall 3. be loved of God thy creator and of folks. Ne do thou not to another man yf thou wouldest not the same. Ne

4. be thou not a lyer to the Lord neither to thy friend and say thou such soothes that be to thy profit and not 5. harme. Ne love thou not neither fellowship thou more w th unwise men then w th wisemen. And evermore love [2 v ] thou many wisdoms and good sciences and all thy will 6. and thy lyfe in them. Ne speakest thou not before thou have thought, and that thou do consider it in thine 7. hart ere thou do it. Neither discover thou not thy privityes to a woman, neither to a childe, neither to a foole, neither 8. to a dronk e woman. No prove thou not a medicine neither venym in thy self before thou provest it in an other. Ne

9. blame thou not a booke before thou prophesy neither a wise man till thou have proved thou. And if thou w th holdest these ix precepts in thee evermore thou shalt profite more and more. Postqua sensus et scire et posse vo= luntas vera &c After that witt and knowledge and might and very will overcometh all things w th good witt and good discretion. Therfore I will expound or make open his booke w ch is of great power and of great vertue.

I, Salomon out such knowledge and such a distinction and explanation in this book e to every man that readeth or studyeth in it, that he may know e whereof he was and from whome he came. Knowe ye that after I Salomon had xxx yeeres w th in an half in the v th day of the month of Hebreys w ch was the vi th ferial day, the sonne being in the signe of Leonis. In that day was sent to me from Babilony of some prince that was greater and more worshipfuller then all men of this tyme some booke that is said Cephar Raziel w ch cont vii bookes and vii treatises.

Nota tempus in quo Salomon fuit p o adeptus istu libre et quomodo et a quo venit sibi

Knowe thou the tyme in w ch

Salomon gott the booke and howe and of whom it came to him.

Iste liber est magnae virtutis et magnae secretiae This booke is of great vertue and of great privity, the name of the prince that sent it to me was Sameton and of the two wise men that brought it to me was said

Kamazan and the other Zazont. [3 r ] The name of this booke expound ed in

Latine is Angelus magnus Secreti Creatoris That is to say the great Angel of the secret creator And in Hebrew

Cephar Raziel it is the book e after Adam written in language of Caldey and afterward translated in Hebrew. And know each man that read e s it that in it all Semiforax that is to say the great name complete w th all his names whole and even. and w th his vertues and his sacraments And I found it in 7 bookes that is 7 treatises. And know ye that I found the first and the last full dark e and the five middle more plain and although

I found them dark e

I opened them as much as I could or might. And the 7 treatises of this book e be these.. determined of

Astronomy and of the stares for w th out them we may do nothing. determined of the vertues of some stones of herbes and of beasts

Thymiamatu s for that there is determined in it of suffumigations and of Allegations of them and divisions th is said the Treatise of tymes of the year of the day and of the night for that in it is determined when anything ought to be done by this book e th is said the Treatise of

Cleanesse for that there is determined in it of Abstinence h is said Samaim for in that treatise it nameth all the heavens and her angels and the operations or workings of them th is the book e of Vertues for that there is determined in it of vertues and miracles for there be told the properties of the ark of magicke and of his figures and of the ordinance of same.

And the I beganne to write all these treatises in a new e volume for that one treatise w th out another serves not to the wholeness of the work e

Therfore I made an [3 v ] whole book e to be made of the treatises.

Therfore Salomon said to his writer Clarifaton that he could write it, w ch

I know well the language of Caldy of Indy of Hebrew and of Syne and their right explanation. Methelis

Salomon said that after Clarifaton had corrected it and had drossed it, it should be the better and ordained it in the best maner that he might. And

Clarifaton said, w ch was the writer of Salomon, that this booke is full of great privity and that it was sent of full great honor

And that it was sent to Salomon for most price and most love. And everiche treatise of these vii was was written by themselves. But although it be so that

Clarifaton said that it ought to be but one booke alone by itself for none of these saith he should suffice w th out another, wherefore he said it were necessary that they were all together Whereupon Salomon ordained that all the said 7 treatises were but one book e as they ought to be and as they ought to be read and wrought.

And he ordayned it much better then the phors ordayned, and also he taught how a man ought to do his work e by it. And he put every treatise by itself and every chapter by itself and ordayned all till the end of the book e . And he putt into this booke Semiforas that is the book e of 17 vertues how it ought to be written and of w ch

Ink e , and of w ch parchment and w th what pen and w th what man, and in w ch time and what day and in what night and in what hour. After that Salomon expounded in the book e of Razeelus and how it ought to be kept Cleanly and w th great honor

Dixit Salomon qui videt et non cognos t &c

Salomon said who so soeth and knoweth not is as he that is born e blind e and knoweth not colors and who that heareth and understandeth not is such as if he were a deaf e man. And who so considereth and knoweth not the consideration is such as if it were of a dronkerd [4 r ] And whom that speaketh and cannot expound the reason is as a dombe man. And who that readeth playne bookes and understandeth them not is as it were he dreameth.

These proverbs Salomon said in this booke ffor as Salomon said in this booke is hit that Cephar

Raziel the angel said to Adam w ch was the first man in this world and after it w ch Moyses said to other prophets in soothes and we troweth it so.

Dixit angelus Salomoni vt o per es tua operations &c

The angel said to Salomon that all thy workhings and petitions and willes be fulfilled, and it shall be made in all hitt that thou shalt covet that it be in the might

It behoveth that when thou hast this book e of this or of

Another example or ensample that thou write it in

Inst maner in virgin parchemt and that it be not filthy neither of a dead beast or in vealime (vitulino) or in parchmyn of sylke, or in samatyne

, or in cleane clothe or in parchmyn of a lamb or of a virgin kidde or of a virgin ffawne, and this is better than any other.

And the Ink e w th w ch thou shalt write be it of cleane galles and let it be made w th good white wyne & whole and w th gum e and vitriol and masticke & thyme and croco. And the third day when it hath taken residence and shall be clensed putt

thou therein a little of Algaba and Almea

, and putt therein of good muske or muske more than of those three. And put thou therein

Amber and Balsamu s myrryam and lignus aloes and when the Inke shall be made, boyled w th masticke and w th thyme and w th lingo aloes and w th somewhat of

Thymiamat and Muculazarat and thou clense it well w th a clean e thinne cloth e , and the cloth be it threefold. And afterward putt therein musk e and Ambram and

Almenus & Algana and Balsami s and Myrrha s all well grounden & then

Above "samatyne" is written "sattin."

Above "putt" is written "& strained."

A marginal note offers an alternative to

Almea: Alinza. [4 v ] shalt meddle all this w th the Inke full well together

And let the inke be so still for the space of 3 days well covered in a fayre place And know e thou that w th this ynke thou shalt write all the holy names of God and of his angels and of his saints, and all things in w ch his holy great name is

nempned and written. And all things that thou willest truly to be fulfilled w th thy well pleasing or w th thy service. And what ere thou puttest in this ynke, be it newe and bright and pure and good pen And the penne that thou shalt write the holy names be it of a green e reed e gathered early ere the sunne

arise. And he that shall gather it be he clene & washen & in running water or in a quicke well and also let him be clothed w th cleane clothes, and the moon e being waxing w th Caput Draconis or w th

Jove, for that they be true and very. And when thou shalt gather it, thou shalt behold of looke toward the East and thou shalt say thus Adonai et Saday jubate me ad complendu s voluntates meas eo s axundine ista. That is to say Help ye me to fulfill my willes w th this reed e . and when this is said thou shalt cutt one reede or twayne or as many as thou wilt w th one stroke. And as

Moyses said the knife be it well playne sharpe and whole as thoughe we should cutt of an neck e w th it. And thou take the reed e w th thy cleane hands, and make thou of it a gobbeth. And when thou wilt cutt the penne, cutt it ere the sunne arise or when it ariseth. With this penne and w th this ynke thou shalt write all the names of God holy and severall. And as often as thou writest the name of the

Creator be thou clean e and

solleme & serened & in a clean e place. And thou shalt first ere thou write by iii dayes be bathed in clean e water, but rather thou shalt be clean e by 9 days an house or clean e place made very clean e w th beesoms

Above "is nempned" is written "named."

A marginal note here reads: it might be done / in the new of / the ( whiles / the ( dothe / increase when / she applieth / to caput dra / conis by o / or to the o of or / [fire] of [Jupiter] for if / they be true / & very good [ ( = the moon ]

Above "and solleme" (and in the margin) is written "solitarie." [5 r ] and washen watered and suffumed And ordeyne so that when thou writeth, hold thou thy face toward the East & write thou from morning till midday till that thou eate. And after that thou hast eaten and dronken thou shalt not write in it any thing. And if thou wilt write Semiforax w th his strengthes the number of the mone, be it even. And most in the day of the mone or of morning or of Jovis or dius. & be thou word of

Saturne and of Sol upon all. And

Salomon said If thou puttest into the ynke of the bloud of vowter or of a furtur or of a gander (wholly or all white) the ynke shall be much the better and the more vertue

Also I say that if there were of Sapher powdered Sma= ragdo, gaynisia & topasia the ynke shall be complete or fulfilled. And w th this Inke and w th this penne ought to be written all the names of Semiforas and know e thou yt he that shall write this book e ought to be clean e & fasting bathed and suffumed w th precious aromatickes, that is w th spices well smelling. And it shall be great profit to thee and to him that maketh it or writeth it.

And each man yt hath written this booke or hath holden it in his house, ev'more hold e he God in his mynde and his holy

Angels & hit for w ch he hath made it. & let him put in his mynde in w ch tyme of the 4 tymes of the day w th his ougth or of the tymes of an hower And ev'more let him put in his mynde to his 4 tymes of an hower to w ch they ought to be as juvenies in libro prophare

Dixit Salomon sicut si esset castru s etc

Salomon said as though there were a castle full strong and his highenes ful great and high and en= hansed and well on each side w th walles invironed and the gates in one place well strong and stable or fyrme and w th keyes closed and locked.

Therfore it behoveth it who that would open the gates of that close castle and holsomly would enter into it both w th out travel of gyfte and w th out bruising of his body It is necessary to have the same [5 v ] keyes and none other of this castle and of his gates & of his closings Thus I say this that it is for to knowe the starres and their names and their figures and their natures, and when they should be good and when they should be evill, And thus I say of the fixe and of the 7 erraticis neverthelesse Consider how evermore the nature of the

Circle of the xii signes that is thee towards. And therfore it behoveth each man that hath this booke, that he holde it clenly and that he keep e it w th great reverence & w th great hono r . And who that hath it, and can reade it, let him not reade it, but if he were before full cleane of body and w th great witte.

And I make every man to knowe or weel that he ought not to worke by this book e in vayne, neither w th out wytte nor w th out lawe or reason. And this is when every man doth to the contrary, or when and

Reptiles, or wood beasts should lett thee or do the harme. And knowe thou though e thou have might and trust for to worke by this booke & although thou might have great trust in this, yet thou shalt not worke, but w th great right or lawe or w th much reason

And understand thou of all the contrary, and if thou worchest otherwise by this booke then thou shouldest and much might let thee that is to say if thou worchest w th out reason, or if thou were uncleane or evill in thy self. oClavis istius libri est cognoscere et scire loca

The key to this booke is to knowe and will the places of the vii bodyes above and their natures and their sciences and the domes, and all their vertues after yt it appeared in the earth to me

O__o formata debet esse omnis figura cu s ex vero

Eache figure ought to be formed w th very or true en= sample therfore I put the figure of the key in this booke that no man true that w th out reason and profitt it be made. And I put in figure and key w th the shafte to the [6 r ] similitude or likenes that there is one soleyme Lord one god w ch never had neither shall have any even or like to him

In the Quadriture or in that, yt is fower cornered yt signified that there be 4 elements and no moe. And in this key is one triangle w ch signifyeth knowing might and will for whome these three no man may do any thing in the worlde neither attayne to any profit. And Salo= mon said that the shafte of this key is as

Raziel said to

Adam unite or one head, and the quadrate is as 4 vertues that be in herbes and words and beasts, and they be to the similitude of elemts w ch openeth and doeth all. And the 7 wards be 7 Angels w ch have might in the 7 heavens, and in the 7 dayes of the weeke as furthermore

I shall teache you.

And the triangle signifyeth man w ch is in body and soule and spirit, and these above said leadeth togither all the worlde as it was compounded in highnes & lownes.

Pastqua s hucusq diximus oportetnos dicere &c

After that we have said hitherto it behoveth us now to say for this booke that w ch is said of the key of the 7 bre= thren. And these 7 brethren have among themselves 12 realmes for to devide or to depart, and in each realme be 30 cityes, and in every city be 60 castles and in every eiche castle 60 Caldee yt is to say feeldy or wilde fownes. And this ensample Salomon found and made distinction and said there is one father and he hath 7 sonnes and these 7 sonnes be germanyes ffor after that they be of the same father germayn. And the Elder is most heavy among all the other. And the middle in the middle more ordinate then all. And thither lightly be in the middle in fellowshipping hit evermore, so they twene of these be not much severed from hit.

And the 7 bre= thren Salomon said be Sabaday

Saturnus. Zedel Jupiter [6 v ] Madyn Mars Hamyna Sol Noga Venus

Cocab

Mercury Labana that is to say Luna

Knowe thou the houses of the planetts. And Salomon putt names to the xii realmes of the of Germanyes and they be called signes and he beginneth to make distinction. And he gave to their fighter that is to say to

Mars that he should rest, and that he should not fight in the realme of the signe of Arietis and of this vertue he is in the realme of the East, he gave him in the realme of the worlde the signe of Scorpionis that he should fight strongly and that he should never rest, and he is in the eight realme from the first. And afterward he gave to the fayre Noga that is to say Veneri twey realmes of w ch one hath the half deale of Tauri that is from the highnes of his head w th his horns till to the navell. And their as the vii th from the first that is

Libra, and after while Venus is above that is in the

Northe, and otherwhile beneath that is in the South.

And so he hath inherited in twey parts

And then he gave to the painter (w ch is the writer) that is Mer= curius twey realmes of w ch one hath twey men embraced that is clipping togither himself, that other hath a fayre virgin winged and nevermore would be divided or departed from wemen for those

Images be such and he displeaseth evermore to go much from the South into the Northe. And he gave to the

Malix that is to say Lune for that he goeth evermore one realme

And for that she will note stande much in her house & her signe is a fish that is said Cancer w ch hath many feete, and signifyeth be this that he will go much for that he is under other brethren, this suffer alone

And he gave to the middle brother, w ch is the Lord of all [7 r ] other, and he commandeth to all and is more adorned for fay= rer arrayed, therfore he gave to him one realme full strong in heate and his signe is as the Lion, that sheweth him Lord upon all beasts, so is he stronger and of more Lordshippe upon all his brethren. And then remayned twey brethren of the L ty of the South and theld or tooke twey realmes, one about another for this that he should never overcome in the signe of the realme well meridionall or south, and he is one beast w th one forme in his front, and the signe of that other realme is a man that holdeth w th many waters and this brother is said the old Sabaday.

And then ta= keth that other brother for heritage on his right syde the realme w th the signe of half a man and half a horse and it is said Sagittarius, and on the left syde of Pisces.

Knowe you heere the natures of the

Signes

And Salomon said Aries is a sign fiery hot & dry, choleric, and so is Leo and

Sagittarius and they have might in the East.

Taurus is earthy, cold and dry, melancolious & so is Virgo and Capricornus and they have might in the South.

Gemini is airy, hot and moist & sanguine and so is

Libra & Aquarius & they have might in the West.

And Cancer is watery feminine moist and flegmatic and so is Scorpio and Pisces & they have might in the North.

Iam diximus de naturis et signis et eor complexionib is

Now we have said of natures and sign e s and of the complexions of them, so we meane to say of natures and of the complexions of germanyes and what they signifyeth.

The first higher that is said the old

Sabaday is Saturnis the nature of w ch is cold and dry for that is [7 v ] much straight and melancholious and signifyeth father and wroth and discord in lands.

The second is said Zedek and he is temporate for that he is betweene the old Sabady and the hott Madyn and

Zedek is hott and moyst and sanguine in savor sweete & it draweth to good ayer, and it signifyeth good and honor and vertue.

The third is the fighter Madyn and he is hott and dry evill and lover and bremer, ravisher & a lyer.

The fowrth is Hamyna Sol middle among other hott and mighty and worshipfull and all thither brethren shameth or dreadeth him and he is much soothfast and strong.

The fifth is the fayre Noga colde and moyst, glad flegmaticke fatt and fleshy and well seeming in all her members and chere, and he signifyeth good soughts and he is much glad among wemen.

The sixt is the writer and the forespeaker

Cocab, this holdeth himself w th all & serveth to all, and signifyeth writers and tidings and voices after that he shall be w th it yt w ch everich e he holdeth him self, when he is w th it

The vii th brother is Labona & it is Malx and it is colde and moist and it signifyeth brethren and beareth each moneth and manndemts of brethren to brethren after that it is severed from them.

Deinde loquamur de septem fribus quare dicuntur clavis &c And then speake we of the vii brethren why they be said the keyes of the world (and w ch this world may not excuse neither excuseth) and these were formed as 4 brethren w ch be said the 4 elements, and they have after signification witt and discretion & might complete and honesty and strength, and everiche may do in his hemisphere that is empire as an

Emperor in his empyer, or as a prince in his

Lordship. Also they have might over the 7 parts w ch we sayen clymates. And [8 r ] knowe thou that these be mighty upon all beasts heere formed.

And Salomon said prophets clippeth these brethren vii quicke spirits, and holy and wise men said that they were 7 lampes burning or 7 candlesticks of light & of life, and all prophets clipeth them 7 heavenly bodyes w ch be vii planets and of commonalty they be said 7 starres.

And the 7 brethren be kept of 4 beasts full of eyen before and behinde w ch be the partyes of heaven

East West north and South, and they have might in the 4 parts of the worlde and in 4 tymes and in 4 natures w th her com= plexions and w th al her parties and in all her 4 ele= ments and w th these togither is hed and meeved all things moveable by the Commandements of

God that put them in their places.

Dixit Salomon sicut fuerunt semp status superius

Salomon said As there were evermore states above w th out corruption so know e thou that there is nowe and shall be evermore. And for this we understand the bodyes above cleane and good and made w th out corrup= tion. And that neather-bodyes uncleane evill treated and broken, and eache day they fayleth and bend corrupted

And this corruption resteth not neither is made very of the w ch we understand that the neatherbodyes might not excuse the over bodyes. And all things w ch we seene beneath have roote and beginneth from things above ffor things above be w th lyfe and w th out dolor and things beneath be the contrary, have death and dolor And things above have during w th out corruption and things beneath each day fayleth and be corrupted and minished. All pro= phets seene that if there lacked any one of the over bodyes that is of these that be much above ten thousand betwixt those that we see and those that we not see. Knowe thou that it were a great precipitation and destruction and confusion in lande and in sea and in the 4 elements if [8 v ] any of the bodyes above were broken or were evill trea= ted And if there fayled one of the 7 brethren the earth shoulde come agayne to his first state, and all the ele= ments were confused. And if any of them had corpo= rally received corruption knowe thou that all things were destroyed that received soule or lyfe. And knowe thou that as the 4 elements be turned downeward so be they not turned w th out some reason of the 7 above

And this sayeth the Pher

when the sonne is destroyed eache lyfe and eache soule is destroyed.

And when the mone is destroyed the ligatures or buildings of the sea be destroyed. And knowe thou that

Saturnus is earthly and holdeth all the earth in a ballance that is not moved. And Jupiter holdeth the ayer, and Mars the fyer, and Sol the day and men, And

Venus holdeth the fayre parts of the worlde, and

Mercurius reasons and Luna holdeth the hearts seas waters and their powers.

And know e thou that everiche (After that it were or shall be in this exaltation) ordeyned and bounden w th the sonne yt s reasons and words and speeches should be good betwixt men. And as often as Mercury were joined in Virgo in the same point w th

Sol direct and not retrograde, make we subtill things and reasonable And as ofte as Sol were in Aries, so many yeeres unlike he giveth us. And as ofte as Saturnus were in Libra so many mutations he giveth in landes. And as ofte as

Jupiter is ioyned w th

Saturne in an earthly signe so many divers mutations or changings he giveth. And he changeth lawes & seates and Lordshippes and thus understand thou in other com= plexions of planetts after the states of them and their beholdings that is said Aspectus. [9 r ] Ex dixit Hermes istam rationem super capita oia & And Hermes said this reason upon the heads of beasts

Saturnus hath the right eare, Venus the lefte and Sol the right eye and Luna the lefte.

Mercurius the mouth.

These 7 hooles have they in power above upon the head of a man. And Salomon said that a man is a measure w ch is said Palmus made w th hande in w ch bene all the vertues of the worlde and of the 7 planetts and that is only the head of a man wherefore everiche man is likened to his starre and to his elements.

And Salomon said when I founde a spirit above re= trograde or combust or evill treated thus

I say that his body was evill treated beneath in w ch it was like or he signified in it. And who that were so wise that he knowe his signe and his planet and his starre above and his signification he might do good and evill to himself & likewise so to other men. And as the nativityes of beasts be denyed such wurchings you shall do w th helpe of God.

Postqua diximus de 12 signus et planetis & After that he said of the 12 figures & planetts & of radiis of them we say that eche planet that were in Ascendent and if there be another in the same As= cendent it is named coniunction, and how much the latitude or bredth shall be lesse so much the coniunction is said to be stronger and if there be more latitude the coniunction is the feebler. And so I say to thee in the middle of heaven. And if the poynte of the 12 houses w ch be in the stronger places of all houses I say the poynte of the first degree of the house, and eche starre that were lesse and hath upon himself another the like is said that it hath power and goeth upon another [9 v ] from starre to starre And thus each starre that diverseth from another by 60 degrees before and after It is said aspectus sextilis that is the sixt beholding And each planet that differeth 90 degrees before and be= hinde It is said in aspectu quarto that is in the fourth beholding. And each planet that diverseth or differeth by 120 degrees before and behinde It is said in aspectu tertio, that is in the third beholding. And each pla= net that differeth by 180 degrees is in opposition in that that it is said in the contrary place. These be the 7 beholdings and no moe duo tertii, duo quarti & duo sextile and unus opposites that is to say twayne in the third, twey in the fourth, and twey in the sixt and one contrary against another. The coniunction is complete then they be in one degree

Double coniunction if twey good or temporate sheweth double good, as twey evill by the contrary sheweth much evill The sextilis beholding the ascendent avayleth one good if trino and twey trino avayleth in the beholding ascendent one good fortunate in the ascendent. And twey quarties in the beholding the ascendent avayleth one greevous or heavy (if there were evill starres) and twey opposita avayleth one infortunate in the ascendent or in the opposite. And twey quarti avayleth as much as a starre falling or combust or retrograde this is letted in the Ascen= dent one fortunate or twey in the

Ascendent and another of sextile and another of trine beholding the ascendent sheweth much good hasty or highing

Twey evill in the ascendent or one w th another in opposito that is in the contrary or falling sheweth [10 r ] greevous or long impediment. And if they be falling and letted it shall be worse. One fortunate in the Ascendent beholding of twey trinis it sheweth much good and how much there were no witnesses upon the figure of w ch thou enquireth and searcheth or fo w ch thou worchest so much it shall be the better And if three planets be= holden the Ascendent w th good beholding and twey evill the good shall overcome the evill and so of the other

One infortunate in the Ascendent beholding twey quar= tis sheweth much greefe. Caput draconis is much better than Cauda Eache planet in his head of the same degree it more Lordship in the figure for that it is twey in latitude to the way of the sonne and it profiteth in going toward the xty of the north. Eache planeth in the tayle of the dragon is minishing of his worke yt goeth towards the south.

Luna coniunct or Joyned w th

Saturne and

Mars in the Ascendent it constrayneth and threatneth divels

Satunus maketh divels strength & great power

Luna coniunct or Joyned w th

Jove and

Venus in the ascendent it sheweth great dilection and great love in every good thing.

Luna joyned w th Mars & Saturne in the ascendent it sheweth impediment except the planet were of good receiving.

Luna joyned w th

Sol in the one poynt sheweth great grace and if that they were good

Luna ioyned in falling and to mercury in the

Ascendent it sheweth the contrary

Luna in the ascendent by her self signifyeth after the planet to the w ch she is Joyned

Luna w th Caput draconis in the ascendent sheweth good

Luna w th Cadua draconis or combust or ioyned w th [10 v ] a starre letted or in evill sitting it sheweth much evill when caput draconis and Luna were w th capite Saturni or that Luna or Saturnis were there and that their werke of celson made it signifyeth upon building of devills fowle and evill.

Each planet that is w th dracon of another & both be ioyned togither it sheweth a very soothe or try worke and more in the ascendent. And if caput draconis were of Jovis or Luna and these twey coniunct or

Joyned in the ascendent it sheweth much good and in= ceasing of good and honor And if it were in Cauda not only when there were twey Cauda draconis that is of Luna and of other they be full evill when Luna were w th them. When Caput draconis

Luna were w th Caput draconis Martis and Luna and

Mars in the like poynt it sheweth strength and might. And if Cauda w th Cauda and Luna w th Mars togither it is full greevous and evill after everiche is evill so is the place or beholding of one another.

Caput draconis and Luna in capite. Aries (Luna & Sol in Zamin) sheweth great might and great honor and by the contrary in Libra beneath w th

Cauda dra= conis. Caput draconis w th capite veneris sheweth much love and cauda draconis the contrary

Caput draconis that is to say mercury w th caput draconis and Luna sheweth werke of reason and of voice and many sounds, and in Cauda

Luna w th

Mercury & Saturne it sheweth us the beholding of many experiences.

Luna in capite sui draconis sheweth and if there

Were Jupiter or Venus it shall do the werke of Jovis or of Venus and it shall profit in all good worke as these be good. Luna if it be in Cauda draconis and Mars [11 r ] and Saturne w th it or that they beholdeth it w th evill be= holding it sheweth as evill as we have said of Saturne and Martis.

And we have said that Saturnis nourisheth devills and

Mars draweth and thresheth and figureth them. And

Saturnus gathereth togither many divels

Venus and

Saturnus gathereth togither devills and wyndes from beneath. A good starre in the ascendent and Luna

Joyned w th a good starre sheweth much good. And the beginning in all hit in w ch were d e us quartae that is the Lord of the 4 th house and if the 4 th house is well beholden of good, all the one of the thing shall be good

And when the Lord of the 4 th house were evill and evill intreated it sheweth noy and evill. The signe of the

Ascendent sheweth the body o The Lord of the Ascen= dent of the planet that is in the

Ascendent or w ch behol= deth it sheweth his spirit and the Lord of the hower signifyeth his soule and his will, and this understand thou in other dones The body and soule and the spirit for these three knowe thou that they maketh the body of a man safe and whole.

Dixit Hermes Saturnus exaltatur in

Libra &c

Hermes said Saturnus is enhanced in

Libra, and

Jupiter in Cancer, and Mars in

Capricorne and

Sol in Aries. And Venus in Pisces and

Mercurius in Virgo and Luna in Tauro.

And knowe thou that Saturnus gladdeth or Joyeth in

The xii house, and Mars in the vi th and

Sol in the ix th and Venus in the v th and Mercurius in the Ascen= dent that is the first house and Luna in the 3 d house

And the Ascendent hath 12 vertues, and each planet that is in it upon eache place of the circle. The x th [11 v ] house hath xi vertues. The xi th house hath 10 vertues. The vii th nine, the 4 th eight vertues the v th house hath 7 vertues, the ix th house hath 6.

The third 5. The second 4. The 8 three, the xii th two and the vi house hath one vertue. And evermore consider thou in all things, that thou shalt do upon the planets how it be in the xii houses & thou shalt profitt if thou choosest well. And

Salomon said to eache man that worketh by this booke, It behoveth that he knowe all these things, that is reasons w ch heere I will not expound to thee, that is thou knowe in w ch tyme of the yeere thou were borne of the 4 tymes of the yeere. And in w ch moneth of the moneth of Luna

And begin thou from the Lunation of the moneth of

Mercury (where ever Luna prima were) And all

Secrets and privity be it asked in Saturne w th all deepenes, and honor and substance be it asked upon

Jove. And all strifes and battaile and hasting be it asked upon Mars. And all cleannes & Lordship of sol. And all fayrenes and dilections or loves and fatnes be it asked of Venus. And all reasons & witts & subtiltyes of Mercury. And of these 7 thou shalt aske evermore counsel where thou findest them in their houses and signes And they shall shewe to thee so deeme thou upon them in all good and evill.

Now we have fulfilled heere w th the helpe of God

The treatisy that is said Liber Clavis

That is the booke of the Key.

Heere endeth the first booke and heere beginneth the second [12 r ] Dixit Salomon sicut alae avium sunt membra &c

Salomon said as the wings of the fowles or byrds be members that leadeth the fowles to the place where they desire to be, so by the vertue of stones & of herbes and of beasts, that liveth in flying, in swimming in going and in creeping thou might attayne to that thou wilt if thou chooseth the nature of them.

The propertyes and vertues. And therfore we clipeth this booke Ala that is wings for w th out wings neither fowles neither fishes mought move themselves, and so as winges beareth bodyes to highnes upwards and to fun= daments downwards and to Longitude and latitude that is to length and bredth, so by the vertue of stones and of herbes w th grace and w th much might of Semiforas Knowe thou that thou might attayne that thou coveteth to do as to heale and to make sicke or to stande or to goe.

Dixit Salomon sicut lapides sunt mundiores &c

Salomon said as stones be cleaner cleerer and fayrer then golde and in vii vertues of this worlde as be in stones herbes wordes and beasts, so

I say that in the beginning of this booke Cephar

Raziel that was crowned w th vii stones of great power he put them in this booke The first was Rubinus – i – Carbunclo the second Smaragdus, the third

Saphirus the fourth Berillus, the fifth Topasius, the sixt fagun= cia, the vii th Adamas and the vertues of these stones Raziel hath spoken. And he said that they were crowned of 7 angells w ch have might over the 7 heavens and of the 7 dayes of the weeke. And Raziel said knowe eache man that hath this booke that in this booke be the more vertues of this worlde

And the first vertues of this booke that is said of 4 wings be the [12 v ] vertues of stones whereof knowe thou that by stones alone thou might do wonderfull things if thou hast well knowen as thou shouldest doe w th all other Images and that thou keepe them clenely and reverently.

De prima ala

Et dixit Salomon scias quod in prima ala sunt &c

And Salomon said knowe thou that in the first ala or winge be 24 precious stones great and of great power to the similitude and signification that there be 24 howers in the day and night. And

Salomon began & said I put and sett the first stone car= 1 bunculu Rubinus for that it is brighter and cleerer and fayrer and of more price above all other stones

And I will say of his color and his power and his vertue, and of his seale and of his figure that might to be in it. And thus I shall say in all other stones, eache stone signifyeth durability or lastingnes w th out end. The color of Rubinus is as the color of fyre sparkling and his power is that he shineth by night as a starre or as a flame of fyre sparkling. And the vertue of it is that it maketh good color of men that beareth it reverently, and it encreaseth his goods of this worlde among other men, and the

Lords & of kings

Dixit Salomon sicut avis corpus volare non potest &c

Salomon said As the body of a fowle ne may not fly w th out wynge neither go where he cometh, so by sci= ence of one thing above we might not fulfill that we define And for this we putteth the second keye in this book e , and we sayne it the second for that it maketh the second opening, for as the world is closed w th

elements so this book e is closed w th

sciences and 4 vertues. and now we have said of stones now say we of herbes. Knowe thou that in herbes are vertue of the most that may be. And some of naturals of this worlde beth that liveth of them as ther that have reason and some that flyeth, and some w ch swimeth and w ch goeth and w ch creepeth. And knowe thou that of trees and herbs some liveth much and some liveth midly and some liveth litle, and yt is the similitude of beasts

And knowe thou also that among herbes there be some w th w ch thou may do good or evill, as to heale & to make sicke, and so understand thou in these that shall be said furthermore hereafter And Adam said

By a tree come wretchedness into the worlde, that is by the tree [16 v ] I synned in it. And Raziel said an herbe shall be thy

Lyfe. And Salomon said A tree shall be & shall waxe

Or growe of w ch the leaves shall not fall and it shall

Be medecine of men.

The second wynge is to the similitude of 24 howers and of 24 herbes 1 Prima herba est Acil almalie &c

The first herbe is Acil almalie and it is said corona regia and in Latin Rosmarinus This herbe hath a middle tree and good odor and litle leaves and his power is to chafe and comforte the brayne. And if an house be suffumed w th it it chaseth away devills the same doth Pionia

2 The second herbe is Artemisia and this mother and first if other, but for that other is said

Corona regis that is to say the crowne of a kynge we had putt it first of this they sayden all that in all things thou doest thou shalt putt of it And the leafe is middle greene over thone side and white on thother side

And it waxeth or groweth midly. And w th this thou shalt steepe windes

and all spirits that thou wilt and thou shalt profitt. 3 The iii herbe is Cannabis

and it is long in shafte and clothes be made of it, the vertue of ye Joyce of it is anoynt thee w th it and w th the

Joyce of artemisia and ordayne thee before a mirror of steele clepe thou spirits, and thou shalt see them, and thou shalt have might of bynding and losing devills and other things 4 The iiii herbe is said feniculus and it hath small leaves and a long staffe and it is an holy herbe and worshipfull, and it is medecyne of the eyen, and it 8 Above "windes and" is written " stop or stacke." 9 Above "Cannabis and is written "hempa." [17 r ] giveth good light and it chaseth away spirits and evill eyne in the place

where it is, the roote of it chaseth away evill things and helpeth in sight. 5 The v th herbe is Cardamomm us and it is hott and of good complexion and it is of middle highnes and it giveth gladnes to him that useth it and gathereth togither spirits. Eate thou of this when thou steepest or maketh invocation and if thou wilt make fume of it. 6 The vi th herbe is Anisu s and it is of chastity Joyne it to camphire, and thou shalt see that spirits shall dread thee, and it is a cleane herbe, and it maketh one to see secret things and privy, and the fume of this ascendeth much. 7 The vii th herbe is Coriandru s , and this w th holdeth the spirit of a man much w th tother, and it maketh a man also full of sleepe and this gathereth much togither y e spirits wherefore evermore they standeth w th it, so that it is said that if w th this and apis and insquiano thou make fumigacions compounded w th much lazaias cicuta anon it gathereth togither spirits, and therfore it is said herba spiritum. 8 The viii th herbe is said Petrselim us w ch hath great might for to chase away the spirits of roches, and his vertue is to breake the stone in the bladder of him that useth it. 9 The ix th herbe is ypericon or hipericon and it is a middle herbe thirled the Joyce of it seemeth bloud, this is of great power for w th the joyce of it, and w th croco

Arthemisia and w th fume of radicis valerianae if it be written upon what frindshippe thou wilte of a prince of spirits of the ayer and devills. Knowe thou that anon it shall be that thou covestest And so upon spirits and wyndes 10 The x th herbe is Apinn. this is of great power upon 10 Above "in the place' is written "that is w th outen." The final word, "w th outen," is not clear and could be read differently. [17 v ] wyndes and devills and fantasyes and it is shawdded and towched to shade w th the cloud

Acisse for in it be wyndes and devills, and this alone maketh Albafortu s bazebelib i martagon and they be much contrary, for one is kepte w th heavenly angels, and another is kepte w th devills i.Apin us And this beareth the stone of the reyes and a woman w th childe use [shee]

it noyeth [to]

the childe, and it gathereth togither divells when suffumigacions is made w th insqrmo and arthe= misia Apinm suffumed by 7 nights w th fagax al= mait and gathered clenly and the roote of it putt and dryed and then tempered w th aqua lapides suffume thou thee by environ when thou wilt and thou shalt see fantasyes and devills of divers maners. 11 The xi th is Coriandru s of the second kynde w ch maketh one muche to sleepe. And if thou maketh suffumigacions of it and croco and insqrmo & apio papavere nigro grounden togither evenly and tempered w th succo ci= cutae and w th msk, and then suffume thou the place where thou wilt hide treasure in when

Luna is Joyned w th

Sol in angulo terra that is to day in the corner of the earth. And know thou that the like treasure shall never be found. And who that would take it away shall be made fooles. And if in the hower of de= position of the golde or silver or of the stones or

Images thou suffumeth them w th thure musk suco= lingo aloes cost evermore devils keepeth that place and evill wyndes. And knowe thou that it might never be dissolved or foredome agayne w th outsever or and Image made thereto by the poynt of starres. 12 The xii th herbe is Satureja and this is of great vertue and good odor and who that beareth it w th him

The words in square brackets are crossed out in the MS. [18 r ] w th auricula muris in the day of veneris it giveth him grace of goods and it taketh away from ther place wyndes and evill fantasyes. 13 The xiii th herbe is said sca 12 And this is middle in length and hath litle leaves This ought to be hol den worshipfully in holy places and in churches, for it defendeth the places from evill things

And w th this prophets made dead men speake that were dead by many dayes or fewe. In place where as any evill he hath no might if he that beareth it stepeth them not

And it giveth them might upon w ch things he woulde and this herbe put upon the place where devills be closed, and it constrayneth them and byndeth them least that they might have power to move them selves

And Salomon said I founde in the booke of hermits that who that taketh water in the 4 th hower of the night upon the tombe of a dead man w th what spi= rits he would have speech w th all caste he water upon the tombe w th this herbe ysope And the water be it suffumed w th costo succo musco and say surgo surgo surgo That is to say rise rise rise and come and speak to me, and do this by 3 nights and in the third night he shall come to thee and he shall speake w th thee of what thing thou wilte. 14 The xiiii th herbe is psyllium w ch is of great vertue for it sheweth or maketh open in the ayer the other mought not to do it maketh to see spirits in the cloudes of the heavens and this w th scicorda & garmone and the tree w ch swimeth w ch is said arbor

Canci and malie w th rere madii and w th the tree that sheweth by night, and it is said herba lucens that is herbe

Some speculation on this has led us to the reading "scammony," namely, the bindweed

Convolvulus scammonia. [18 v ] shining if thou makest w th these an ointment w th the eyne of a whelpe and w th the fatnes of a harte thou mightest go suerly whether thou wolt in on hower 15 The xv th herbe Majorana, this keepeth an house by itself and defendeth from evill infirmityes and

That is to say in the wenyng of the mone in the day of

Jovis in the morowe when the sonne waxeth from the first degree of Aries till into the first of Cancer and when thou shalt gather him be thou clene and washen worshipfull and stand thou towards the east knowe thou that the house and place is amended where these nyne herbes were wyned togither And put them upon the gate of thy house and thou shalt profitt evermore And the 9 herbes ioyned be like to rubyne. [19 r ] 18 The xviii th herbe is Linum suffumigacions of the

And if this w th somewhat of croco and lingna co= lubri be borne w th him a ring of gold and somewhat of provinca surely goe thou before the king or before whomsoever thou wolt And most if thou put w th it the stone that is said Topazius or if thou wilt beril= lum And if this ring were made when

Luna is ioyned to Jove in trino from sol it were much the better

And it is said annulus solis that the wing of the sonne, and it is of health against infirmityes, and it is of grace of vertue and of hono r . 21 The xxi th Nasturciu ~ This holdeth the members whole, and if there were w th it origan and pulegin ~ and arzolla and be borne togither w th thee and thou eatest of them thou shalt be whole w th in and w th out And so if thou annoyntest thee w th them and were suffumed w th marrubio albo or reubarbaro and herba thuris it shall defend thee from many infirmityes 22 The xxii th is an herbe that is said

Canna ferula

At the pointer ^ above the words "of love" is written, "This is a tree." [19 v ] This is full dreadfull and greevous and strong in worke. And if thou takest the Joyce of it and the Joice of cicuta and Jusquiami and sapsi barbate and san= dalu ~ rubr~ papaver nigr~ w th confection made fume thou what thou wolt and thou shalt see devills and things and strannge figures And if Apin were w th this Knowe thou that from eache place suffumed devills should flye, and if thou wolt thou might de= stroy evill spirits. This suffumigacions is full evill and dreadful for the fume of it and the worke overcometh in malice and worcheth most evill and most strongly if Luna were w th

Saturne or in opposition w th marte that is in opposition w th

Mars. 23 The xxiii th herbe is Calamintum and it is like= ned to mynte and it is of great vertue in good suffumigacions, and if there is w th it menta and palma xpi i. pioma theis beholden taketh away evill spirits from a place And evermore it is against fantasyes. 24 The xxiiii th herbe is Cicoria. This is full good in all ^ exercisannce

That is to say fulfill ye my peticion or asking and my will and they shall fulfill it to thee. These be the more names of the more 9 angels abovesaid And knowe thou them and keepe them, and some men said that they be the 9 orders of Angels.

Heere endeth the 24 reasons upon the vertues of herbes of the second wynge and these experiments were new noricen on party in Raziel although Sa= lomon put two of these three of the sawes of hermes

And the herbes be put in the booke of

Raziel for that w th them we may be excused and worke w th herbs as w th

Semiforas w th fasting and w th words in good and in evill And let no man Joyne himself to Se= miforas till he knowe himself the first and in the second And thus we shall say all thing that shall be to us necessary w th the helpe of

God.

De tertia ala

Dixit Salomon super ala tertia sicut corpus solis &c

Salomon said upon the third wyng as the body of the sonne is more appeering and mighty upon all other bodyes and brighter and fayrer and cleener So the vertues of sensible beasts w ch flyeth and sendeth out [20 v ] voices and sayeth And so beasts of the third wyng have power upon the twey first wyngs of stones and of herbes And he put therefore in the

Raziel 24 beasts w th their names and vertues and states. And the figures be 24 distincte or departed a twey. And

I would putt upon eache Element 6 beasts everiche distinct from other and everiche of his kynde. And as the fyer is the high Lord and distinct from the 4 elements so the lese of them all is purer and Cle= ner among them. Therfore I beginne to say upon the beasts of fyer ffor as everiche of the 4 ele= ments hath his beast beneath so the fyer hath his above pure and cleane w th out corruption

And this fyer that is above is not expounded of wax trees neither of oyle neither of other composition but it is simple

And the things that liveth in it beth angels cleane and cleere and bright like to the beames of the sonne or of a starre, and like to the flame of fyer or of a sparke of fyer or to the colo r of quickesilver or of pure golde. And this similitude is naturall in the beasts of the fyer And the figures of them bene seeme such as the lightening in similitude and in deed for as an Evrizon is a messenger to the creator so they be ready anon to good and evill and they seme like things & prophets that upon the 4 elements be heavens w th their beasts of w ch we should say furthermore.

The second spirit is much cleane but darker then

The overer and it is likened to the wynde & his figure

Is after that he would take after some of the 4 [21 r ] Elements to w ch he is Joyned. And he formeth himself in this maner either by water or by cloude or by moist= nes or by thicknes of some darkenes or he receiveth some body as fume of some kynde by falling on it either by voce or by shape of a beast elemented by these he taketh forme after that the nature above disposeth 3 The third beast of w ch wise men sayne is that evermore he fellowshippe a spirit And most the corpulent and thicke of the spirit And therfore his figure is found by night in places of dread and it is heard and seene and that ofte tyme and the color of it is like to tpari 1 after the nature of hower ere it is made, otherwise to the similitude of the body of w ch it went out of, wherfore some men seith otherwhiles the soules of bodyes in church hayes And of these soules said the wise

Hermes and the prophet that the soule that goeth out & hath might is not neither was but a man or a woman

And upon such maner of soules speaketh wisemen and clepeth them spirituall for goodness heavenly fro ~ symplenes. 4 The iiii th beast is the wynde eache day we heare that we seyne not although we other & hearen not. And the worke of the wynde be seene of the eyne after the part from w ch they cometh And he hath such nature that if he be orientall or meridionall that is East or south he is hott And if he is occidentall or septentrionall that is west or north he is colde

This we seene to have great power for it beareth cloudes and waters and tempests and gayles and it stirreth and troubleth the seas and breaketh tree, and this is said quicke ayer as the fyer above is said quicke fyer and simple. And therfore the elementes above said double or twey folde That is to say fixe & [21 v ] moveable, moveable it is because it dwelleth in the corners of the earth although it descendeth from above ffor the 7 above byndeth and loseth it for of them it descendeth and of them it was formed & this is a great figure in sea in Ayre and in land as it cometh temperate. 5 The v th beast or vision is a fantasy that is a shade to the similitude of divers colors or maners come pounded of divers togither And this forme is made in desert place or in a corrupte ayre or otherwhile it descendeth from hills to the similitude or lightnes of knights, and they be said exercitus antiquus, that is an olde house And otherwise upon matters to similitude of fayre women and well clothed or in medes, and some say that they be face s . And otherwhiles this befalleth in a man, for corruption or malice of complexions and of humo rs that be in a man And they be said Demoniaci for that it ascendeth the head and falleth upon the eyne and such corruption maketh to see many fantasyes 6 The sixt beast is said Demon this descendeth in highnes to lownes ad he was formed of pure matter w th out corruption wherfore he fayleth not but shall evermore dure although he hath taken thicknes in darknes of the lownes of the earth. And he is pure in matter and strong in body

And of this sayth the wise man that he knoweth all things that is, And by him Philosophers have answers and wise men all things of w ch they would knowe the soothenes and he dwelleth evermore in darknes and in obscurity and he is never severed from them [22 r ] And of this sayth the prophet that he hath power of ta= king away forme and shapes of w ch he would in the earth after the will of the creato r And he said a bright angell mighty and fayre as the forme of the sonne and of the mone and of the starres or of an angell or of a cloude or of a fowle or of a fyshe or of a man or of a beast or of a reptile that is a creeping beast or any other forme w ch he woulde And all these abovesaid w th out them knowe thou that they be impalpable or unhappy to be felt. That is that they neither may be taken w th hand nor towched w th foote for they be spirits or wyndes And knowe thou that everiche of the abovesaid when it befalleth in the elements he taketh a body of them although the lyfe of them be of fyer And the dwelling of them in the fyre and their deads fury for they be fury.

And Raziel said upon these vi that invocation of them and opening and constrayneth and bynding and losing and also to do good and evill by them

All is made w th cleanes and therefore who that would slepe them or have the service of them & w th orison and fasting and fumigation and w th praysing of God must do as Heere= after thou shalt heare furthermore.

Animalia aeris tertiae alae vocantur aves &c

Beasts of the ayer of the third winge be cleped fowles for that they flyeth and they be of 4 mevings one is said running another flying and swiming and going and creeping

Now say we of flyeing and beginne we first of 1 Aquila that is an Egle for that is a fowle flying much in highnes and he hath Lordship upon all other fowles, and he is very and true in his deeds and in

Lordship and in hono r among all other fowles. The [22 v ] Eagle hath such a nature that he taketh his sonnes or byrds when they be litle and ascendeth them into a place when the sonne is highe, and then he dresseth the face of them to the sonne. And if they beholdeth strongly the sonne he deemeth them to be his children and good and if they beholdeth not the sonne he deem= eth them not to be his children but thinketh them evill and letteth them fall and dye And one feather of him fretteth another fether, and he seith farre by one league or rule a litle beast, a great beast soothly he seith by 9 leagues or by a dayes Journey

The eyne of him w th the hart have great vertue and

Grace to a kynge or to a lord of a lorde for that

Giveth to him grace in ^

realme. 2 The second fowle is Vultur that is a vouter this hath great vertue in all his members, the head of him helpeth against all dreames and against crafte of magicke and his feete helpeth against malefette

And if an house be suffumed w th

fethers of him it putteth out from it evill spirits The gall of it helpeth the eyne better then anything of y e worlde

The eyne of him putt in the skynne of a serpent, and

The tong of him putt in a cloth of red sylke wrapped w th them helpeth in clauses in w ch thou covetest to over= come and for to wynne the love of another Lord. The wings of him putt upon a bed defendeth a man sleeping from all evill wyndes greevances and evill spiritts neither may they lett in all the house, neither any other fantasyes have power or other things. 3 The third fowle is falco that is falcon of whome the

Vertue is that of great Lords he is sett at much price

Above ^ is written "his." [23 r ] they bene of the highnes of his right wyng overcometh plees both ravishing and in taking away alien things and the highnes of his lefte wyng taketh away evill fevers But we ought not to sley venative fowles neither hounds although they have many vertues in them selves. And knowe thou that how many members be in every beast fowle fishe or reptile so many vertues distincte hath every member by himself. 4 The iiii th fowle is a Turtur simple and good never= thelesse if thou takest the male and the female together and burnest them togither in a new pott w th croco and vervinca and cichoria gathered togithere by them w ch thou wilt ioyne togither if thou castest the powder of these upon them knowe thou that anon they shall be ioyned to= gither, and it giveth great love to them that beareth the powder w th them 5 The v th fowle is said Upupa that is a

Lapwing having a crest of fethers in the head as a cocke & he hath many vertues this hath one bone in his wings and it gathereth togither divels and spirits of the ayer the property of him is that whoever taketh the hart of him and wrappeth it in hony, and the assoone as he may swallowe it and drinke the mylke of a white cow of a red or of a blacke. Know thou that it maketh a man to say things to come. And he hath another vertue for who that cutteth the necke where the cocke croweth not neither may be hard neither the voice of an hound neither where wheate is sowen and when he cutteth if his necke inclepe he devils, and then bear e he w th him the half deale of the bloud and of that other half deale anoynt he himself and evermore shall go w th [23 v ] him one of the devills that is to witt he whome he can inclepe w ch shall say to him many things 6 The vi th is said Ciconia that is an haysoucke who that fleyeth him in the day of Luna and taketh the bloud of the hart of him and anoynt himself w th it

And eateth the flesh with somine faeminli and w th cardamoms and garyophillo And eare he eate it suffume he himself w th good odors and w th thure masticke and cinamom and other such.

And know thou that he shall have grace of enchanting w ch he woll and of coniuring and constraining the spirits of the ayer and other spirits that goeth upon rivers and wells These vi fowles abovesaid bene ensample upon all other And when thou wilt knowe the vertue of any fowle do thou after the precept of this booke.

Raziel upon the booke of visions of

Angells upon the beginning of tymes in the 12 months as heere after thou shalt see furthermore

Dicamus de viscubus mavis et alys &c

Say we of fishes of the sea and others upon vi of

Them that is to witt of the more and the middle that

I should shew the vertues of them. 1 The first fishe is Balena the fatnes of w ch made liquid and kepte by the space of vii yeeres & more for how much it is thelder so much it is the better it healeth a man from eache gowte and evill mynde if he anoynt himself w th it. And if he annoynteth his head w th the bloud of him it helpeth him much and yeeldeth him strong and more whole and it maketh [24 r ] him to see true visions. The sperma of him is said Ambra

If they suffumeth tombs w th this it gathereth togither

The spirits above downwords and each peticion & axing

It maketh to give answere. And Hermes said There is not suffumigacions for to inclepe spirits as

Ambra & lignum aloes, costus, muscus' crucus and bloud of lapwing w th thymyamati for these be meat and drinke & gladnes of spirits of the ayre, and these things gathers them togither strongly and full soone. And wise men sayne that the sperme and bloud and hart of a

Balene be princi= palls for to command the wyndes & spirits 2 The second fish is said Dolphin And he is the king of the sea ffor as the eagle hath might among fowles and the Lion among beasts so in this maner hath the dolphin in the sea. And who that annoynteth w th the bloud of the clothes of twey friends it maketh them enemyes or casteth the dry bloud upon them. And who that bea= reth the hart of him maketh him hardy 3 The third fishe is Cancer this hath vi feete take and brenne him in panno libido and w th the powder frote thy teeth softly it healeth them and maketh them fayer, and cureth the canker in the mouth, if thou casteth it upon the fyer w th somewhat of

Stercoris humani combusti it gathereth togither spirits. 4 The fourth is bright as an horne betwixt palemes and whitenes that is to say piscus candis or sepia

This fish hath many propertyes and that knoweth well enchantments and prophets w ch made w th this their enchantments and transfigurations so that when they would that a house should seem full of water or that a river should enter by the gate

They tooke [24 v ] this fish and w th thymyamati and ligno aloes and roses they fumed an house and they cast therein of the water of the sea, and then it seemed that the house were filled w th water And if they cast bloud therein then it seemed all bloud, and so if they cast snowe there= in it seemeth snowe. And when they would that the earth shoulde seeme to quake then they cast therein the earth of a plowe, and so the made there divers similitudes in all things according or after the thing w ch they put in the fumigacion. And knowe thou that it dweth so much and so long as the suffumigacions is or lasteth in the house. And w th the gall of him also they made many enchantments, ffor that this beast is much unlike to other. 5 The v th fishe is Murena and he is lentiguus the vertue of it is that enchanters beareth the powder of him w th them to make enchantments w th . 6 The vi th fishe is Rama viridis And if thou take it or touché it upon what woman thou wilte and nempnest the names of the Angells of the moneth in w ch thou werte borne as I thinke w ch be furthermore w th in in libro visionn is thou might do both good and evill of what woman thou wilte, and know thou that of these fishes and of all other thou maist knowe the vertues of moneths and understand thou by like things in all other things.

Primie ~ animal est leo ista bestia est valde fortis

The first beast is a Lyon This beast is full strong in

The brest and in the cheeks And he is of strong beholding [25 r ] and looking so that when other beasts seeth him they be moved togither w th dread and the kynne of him is of full vertue that if it be putt with other kynnes it destroyeth them and maketh them bare. And who that taketh the biting toothe of him that is cleped dens caninus and putteth it in golde it is good to take away and to take alyen things and the same doth wolfes toothe. And if thou maketh a purse of the harte of a Lyon full of bloud musco & almea et ligno aloes thymyamati and it were gathered & put upon whome thou wylt and thou maketh it hott. Know thou that in that hower he shall love the much and shall doe thy bidding. And if thou inclepest w th the bloud of a goate the prime of Divels he shall be ready anone to do thy commandement and so more kynge or he fro whome thou doest, and the same I say for great women. 2 The second beast is Elephant that is an

Oliphant and

He is ful great, and when he is risen of hard he lyeth & when he falleth of hard re riseth, for that thereto he hath no knees disposed well, and the bone of the teeth of him is said Ebur that is Ivory. And if it be put in electna= ryes it comforteth the feebleness of the hart as much as margarita and more. And the bloud of him w th the liver comforteth much fasting. 3 The third beast is Cerbus that is an hart w ch liveth long for that he remayneth as the moone or as an egle who that maketh fumigacions of the hornes it chaseth away serpents, by it self it chaseth away devills. 4 The iv th beast is Catus that is a catte and he seith better by the night then by the day, and who that ta= keth of him and of an Irchen and of a rearemouse and maketh of Alcosol & Alcofolizeth or noynteth his eyne he seith well by night and by day. And if thou putteth [25 v ] therein the eyne of an asse thou mightest see whe= ther the spirits and devills of the ayer goen 5 The v th beast is Mustela that is a wesell, this bringeth forth her Issue at her moneth after the sayeng of the poets but not of philosophers, this helpeth much when he is brent, and the kynne of him is written for to cause love betwixt tweyne 6 The vi th beast is Talpa that is a molewarpe and dwelleth under the earth and is likened to a mouse w th this beast thou mayest make to come tempests pestilence, hailes and lightnings & cornflations and many evill things if thou putteth him bare or naked upon the earth dead and overturned, and w th this beast thou mayest make discorde and concord w th whome thou wilte, for he is a cursed beast, he healeth a man of the festure when he is burnt or powder and Cast in it.

And when thou wilt knowe the vertue of other beasts do as it is said in libro visionn is upon w ch aske thou this of the Lord of the vision that is that it appears to thee that thou askest and covetest to knowe of beasts w ch thou wylte.

This beast seith not neyther hath eyne.

And know thou that the vision of moneths is upon all things that thou askest or would knowe. And

God shall be w th thee if of right thou aske. And knowe thou that heere is fulfilled the third wyng And now begin we the fourth wing w ch is complete or fulfilled upon all the elements.

Dixit Salomon sicut corpus vivus &c

Salomon said as a quicke body mylde or great is [26 r ] not moved with their feete neither any fowle lesse then w th two wings, neither the world is governed with lesse then w th fowre elements may not neither might not be lesse then w th 4 wyngs w ch be said to be 4 vertues wherefore Raziel said that who that shall be filled w th this booke shall be as one of the prophets, he shall understand all vertues of things and powers of them and if he w th holdeth and worcheth he shall be as an an= gell. And therfore he putt in this booke 22 elements of great vertue that is 22 letters or figures w ch the sonnes of Adam might not excuse. 1 The is Aleph [alef]

That is A his letter is three cornered and it signifyeth the lyfe power and highnes and the principall or beginning in all things These putteth all things in their figures and in their prin= ciples. 2 The second is said Beth [bet] That is B and it is full good in things w ch we desire in

Battaile and in playe & evermore sheweth goodness and profitt 3 The third is said Gimel [gimel] that is

G and it sheweth evill and grief and Impediment in things 4 The fourth is said Daleth [dalet] that is

D this sheweth turbation and death of some man & harme to him 5 The fifth is said He [heh] that is H and it sheweth price, honor and gladnes & it is full good in all things 6 The sixt is said Vau [vav] that is V and it sheweth death payne and travaile 7 The vii th is said Zain [zayin] that is Z at it sheweth pennyes and riches 8 The viii th is said Heth [chet] and it signifyeth

Long lyfe and helthe. 16 Where the letter names are shown in square brackets here, the MS shows the letters crudely drawn. [26 v ] 9 The ix th is said Teth [tet] that is T and it signifyeth wrath woodnes and grief 10 The tenth is Iod [yud] that is I and it signifyeth faith good lyfe and gladnes and all good beginning 11 The xi th is said Caph [kaf] hit sheweth very gladnesse and travaile w th out profitt 12 The xii th is said Lamed [lamed] and it sheweth glad= nes and honor and profitt 13 The xiii th is said Mem [mem] That is

M and it sheweth greef and otherwise dolor 14 The xiiii th is said Nun [nun] that is N.

It signifyeth restoring of a friend, and a visitation of him & profitt 15 The xv th is said Samech [samekh] 16 The xvi th is said Ain [ayin] It sheweth occasion or evill of a woman 17 The xvii th is said Pe [peh dagesh] it sheweth health. 18 The xviii th is said Phe [peh]

That is ff and it sheweth bloud is shed of good men and highe 19 The xix th is Zade [tzadi] It sheweth health 20 The xx th is said Coph [quf] It sheweth hid lyfe 21 The xxi th is said Res [resh] That is R+ And it shew= eth a man that is fallen and is risen 22 The xxii th is said Thau [tav] That is T.

It sheweth

Greefe and diminution.

Now we have said upon the fowre wyngs upon the 22 letters that be upon the lawes of the table written

And know thou that there be no moe but onlye 22 letters

Wch be the roote of Semiforas for w th them it is formed

And is caused and is made and w th out them I may not be

Two forms of peh are given, but no shin. [27 r ] And some men said that Camalie found them. But it is not sooth ffor the angell Raziel gave them written to

Adam in this booke that is said liber ignis, and w th them all the booke of Semiforas written. And knowe eache man that readeth this booke that the

Creator said to Raziel to be the names of Semiforas wherfore if thou canst transpose these 22 letters or figures as it beseemeth thou shalt attayne the great name of thy

Creator and w th it thou might do what thou wilt evermore w th Cleanesse and w th the helpe of the

Creator.

Now we have fulfilled this booke of the wing like to the angels that is Pantaseron Mucraton

Sandalon for everich of these hath 4 wings by commandement of the benigne angell w ch the Creator sent to me that this booke were better compounded and well ordeyned.

The Angell said to Adam make thymiamata

Thymiamata be confections of good odors w th w ch thou shalt suffume (and thou shalt please to

Creacion) and thou shalt attayne what thou wylt by this

And they of w ch they be made be peticion things w ch thou shalt fynde and of good odor and of good nature, and of cleane things. And when thou wilt do it be thou cleane of w th out all fylthe and then the angell rested in that hower

And Adam remayned and did what he might And this Salomon expounded and said I marvaile why this is the booke [27 v ] of Moyses also ffor the Creato r said to

Moyses make thou Thymiamata and suffume thou in the hill when thou wilt speake w th me wherfore Salomon said suffumigacions sacrifice & unction maketh to be opened the gates of the aire and of the fyre and of all other heavens. And by suffumigacions a man may see heavenly things and privatyes of the

Creato r And each man knowe that they thirleth

The earth water and lownesse And

Salomon said

As there be 7 heavens, 7 starres & 7 dayes in the weeke of w ch everiche is distinct and is not likened to his even. So knowe each man that there be 7 suffumigacions w ch w th holdeth w th them the vertue of the 7 starres, and maketh glad the spirits of the ayre and the angels of heaven and Divels of angels of the worlde. And therfore for a man yeeldeth to them hit, that is theirs. Therfore they be pleased and well apaid for the words w ch thou sayest of sayest the names of them or of the

Creato r . And for this that thou doest when thou washest thee and for the gift that thou givest to them when thou suffumest, and these things yeeldeth them earthly and appearing to thee. And that spirituall & invisible that is, that neither evill men neither beasts mongst see thee if thou doest it strongly about thee and about whome thou doest it.

Thymiamata is made of many things, and these be

Principally upon the vii dayes of the weeke And first say we of thymiamata of the Saturday for the starre of him is higher & the angell of him is mighty in y e earth [28 r ] 1 The first Thymiamata is

of the

Saturday ought to be of good things and well smelling rootes as is costus and herba thuris. And that is thymiamata for good, and so I shall shewe all other as it beseemeth to good and Thymiamata to another I shall say in another place 2 Thymiamata of the Sonday is thus

Mastick muscus and other such and all other good gumes and of good odor in all good and by the

Contrary in all evill 3 Thymiamata of the Monday is foliu s myrti and lauri and leaves of good odor and so understand thou in his contrary. 4 Thymiamata of the Tuesday is

Sandalus rubeus niger and albus and all such trees and eche tree of Aloes & cypresse and so understand thou of each tree. 5 Thymiamata of Wednesday is made of all rindes as cinamon cassia lignea & cortices lanri & muris and so understand thou in the other 6 Thymiamata of Thursday is nux muscata gari= ophylli and citruli and the rinde of

Aurangiar ~ siccar ~ & pulverizatar ~ that is the rynde of Oranges dry and powdered & all other fruits of good odor 7 Thymiamata of the Friday is moas rosa viola & crocus and all other flowers of good odor and in the contrary to the contrary put yow all

Thymiamata stinking

And knowe thou that each Thymiamata of good odor

Gathereth togither his spirits after that his nature & his color he 18 & his strength is Thus I sayd for good good, for better better.

The word "is" is crossed out.

The word "he" is crossed out. [28 v ] And Hermes said of

Thymiatibus that

Thymiamata of Luna is cinamonis & ligno aloes et mastix et crocus et costus, et macis et myrtus we putteth this that each of the planets have a parte in it, and all this may be

Luna good and well fortunate by good spices & sharpe and planette of the spices w th the w ch a man ought to make thymiamata And he said that of

Saturne is each good roote in good and evill in evill

And of Jovis all fruite, and of martis eche tree

And of solis eche gume and of veneris eche flower, and of mercury each rinde, and of Luna eache leafe, and thus understand thou of all other and eche odoriferous herbe is of veneris.

And

Raziel said to Adam that he should make good

Thymiamata. And therfore said Hermes, understand

That eache Thymiamata is made of all good things as of roote tree rinde leafe flower fruite & gumes and yet seeds be put in it as Baccae & Cardamomu ~ and waxe, and put thou in it all good thing and precious, and sithen he said Thymiamata completu ~ And there is some Thymiamata gracu ~ or of greeke by w ch heather men were wont to suffume Idols w th . And yet to this day Churches and

Altars be suffumed w th it, and it is said

Thymaimata Jovis.

And in soothenes who that useth this

Thymiamatibus must be cleane and chaste and of all good lyfe and will to the Creato r and he shall profitt. [29 r ] Dixit Salomon super suffumigata

Salomon said upon the suffumigacions of Hermes w ch be said beneath and they be seven maners w th w ch be 1 made sacrifices some be (and the first) w ch fastesth and giveth tei things to the Creato r , and therfore they trust that they attayne to that that they desire And it is soothe 2 The second is that they washen & clenseth them selves and dwelleth cleane and therfore they trow to attayne their petition & axing & it is soothe 3 The iii d is that they do almes of God and for the holy angels of him 4 The iiii th is that they sleyeth and casteth the bloud in the fyer. 5 The fifth is that they sleyeth and burneth all 6 The sixt is that they prayeth much in howers ordeyned 7 tymes in the day, and 3 in the night 7 The vii th is to make suffumigacion w th good things and well smelling and everiche of these did this that he might attayne the sothenes of it that he asked and so he attayned hit by the

Commandement of the

Creato r .

And know thou that suffumigacion overcometh in all

Sothely who that suffumeth best to the eye it proveth and w th this the wisemen excuseth all other. And wit thou that who can well knowe the natures of suffumigacions he might easily nigh thilk spirits w ch he would enclepe according to the nature of suffumigacion

And evermore consider thou the nature of the spirit and of the suffumigacion, and the spirits be constrained by the contrary and be comforted by

The q has ae written above it. [29 v ] like things And it is to wytt that as a wise leache in giving a medecine to a sicke man removeth the sickenes and inleadeth health. So suffumigacion if it be good remeveth the contrary from the place

And w th evill suffumigacion be remeved good spirits, evill and ill spirits also dreadeth for eache thing more loveth health then sickenesse.

And therfore it is said that Sulphur remeveth both good spirits and evill, and this is approbation or profitt way And there is another way for lignu ~ aloes and none other, and Sulphur chaseth them away and this is very reason And then I say that Sulphur gathereth togither his proper spirits and none other And they be full strong & penetra tive and thicke and be not severed or departed so soone from a place But although a place were suffumed w th

Sulphur, and then were washen w th water and suffumed w th lignu ~ aloes yet it draweth away the spirits of Sulphur or endureth or leadeth in his owne. And knowe thou also that the spirit of Azet that is quicksilver and the spirit of Thuris be contrary Although spirits both yet therw th all devills entereth and thirleth rather or sooner then the spirit of Thuris, wherfore everich hath full great might, yet and if thou wilte w th drawe the spirits suffume thou w th thure and they shall go out And so understand thou of all other spirits good and evill.

And Salomon said that as a physicion putteth a man pure good oyntmente and cleane and [30 r ] they thirleth the body of a man and healeth so suffumigacions thirleth the 4 elemts and maketh to see and knowe heavenly things w ch were evermore heavenly and w ch descendeth from heavens as be angells & spirits of the ayre and the soules of dead men and divels and windes of spelunke and of deepenes and fantasies of desert place

And wherfore knowe thou that all spiritualls w th right fumigacon shall obey to thee, and shall come to thee and they shall do thy co ~mandement

And Hermes said that all things that was or is present or shall be that the overnature Joyned w th the neather by ordinance or tyme and hower maketh one body and understanding that he can understand and knowe thilke things whereof creatures have to live and themselves to governe.

Therfore know thou that there be fumes that

Chaseth away spirits and other some that steyeth them and constreyneth them to come, and other that quickeneth them and strengthneth them, and giveth them might, and so by the contrary there be some that destroyeth them and taketh away their might, and this is the probacion of this for the fume of an hare chaseth them away and this he said upon serpents and that chaseth them away w ch is fumus amnecae that is the fume of feces of oyle and that steyeth them is the spittle of a fasting man. And therfore he said suffumigacion sufficeth to us in all things beneath. And

Raziel said knowe thou that as water washeth all uncleanesse and fire maketh liquid or melteth all mettalls & maketh cleane and fyneth. And as the aire is the lyfe of a man [30 v ] living, and the earth sustaineth or beareth eche body and nourisheth each plant, to understand thou that good thymiamata – i – suffumigacions is fulfilling in the worke to the Invocations of spirits and of other things and well proporcioned w th the w ch

Thymiamata is confect or medled, and were in eache hower convenient of according.

Dixit Salomon propter hoc pono hora s et tempus &c

Salomon sayeth ffor this

I put the hower and the tyme in this worke for in all howers in w ch a man will speake to a kinge or to a prince he may not speake to them neither in eache hower w ch a sonne asketh of the father any thing he giveth to him.

Therfore it is darke to thee to choose the tyme and the hower upon these that thou askest. This is therfore tempus quoddam that is some tyme of Jovis be it done in the day of Jovis and of Veneris in the day of

Veneris and Martis. And of Saturne in the day of

Saturne.

And so of other that be done in

Invocations of spirits and in all praysings of Angells. And the fumigacion of w ch is pure and cleane. Knowe thou that it is a spirituall thing and living and fellowshipping to heavenly things. And now said Veallia Knowe thou that no man ought to make suffumigacion of precious things but if it were before cleane, and w th cleane waters well washen and annoynted w th precious oyntments w ch he made cleanly and w th precious things as cera alba, balsamo croco and musco abitatmeca algalia, almea Thure myrrha. Oleo olivary. And this oyntment be it well kept and well warded in a cleane [31 r ] place of him after that also the clothings be cleane white newe and good, not broken neither blacke. And the suffume he himself worshipfully, and the maner of suffuming himself ought to be made in vii maners towards the East the North the West and the south, and towards the heaven above, and towards the earth beneath, and the vii th tyme all about. And as offe as thou doest this evermore dresse thy mynde unto God evermore, and pray that he fulfill thy will. And knowe thou that I founde in some olde booke that these were the more suffumigacions.

Thus thymiamata gracu ~ masticke, sandulus galbanu s Muschalazerat myrrha and

Ambra and these be collectors of spirits and placators of them. And

Salomon said when thou wilt gather togither the spirits of the ayre do thou in this maner.

Clense thou thy self in the better maner that thou canst and go to a pitt where thou wilt knowen to thee and suffume it and encleape him by his owne proper name and lathe him or pray him and that by three nights, and if he answereth not to thee neither appeareth send thou him to a certaine place or to an house or to a quadrive that is a place where 4 wayes meeteth or to a yard or gardeine

And suffume thou the pitt towards the vii parts and in the place where thou bathest also, as I have said

And then knowe thou that he shall come, and he shall appeere to thee that thou shalt do this.

Ex dixit Hermes quod spirit qui apparent &c

And Hermes said that the spirits w ch appeareth [31 v ] in this worlde be these. Some sothely be heavenly and the prophet clepeth them Angels, and they be bright and cleere as flame or a starre as we have said. Other be aire and of the aire and of many colors greene bright and other such & of many figures. And other be fiery and they be bright and red. And other be watery and they be white and as bright as tinne or Iron burnished or quickesilver Other be that neigheth to men & be like to a white cloude or to a white clothe

And other be darke and dime and of divers formes w ch be said Divels w ch be said w th the wynde, and they be in the deepenesse of the sea and of lownesse

Spirits that bring w th hailes & lightnings

And wisemen clepeth these huge spirits & strong

Now we have said of the nature of spirits and putt to thy mynde and thou shalt attayne w th the helpe of God.

Dixit Raziel sicut in aere puro claro &c

Raziell said as in the pure cleere and bright & cleane and peciable aire all things gladdeth a wyeth of it. So knowe thou that from fasting and cleannes and washing of water & prayers luck and orison of the Creator. And for naturall and cleane suffumigacion and very faith or trust thou might please them w ch we have said above. And

Raziel said to Adam knowe thou that in all maner te life of Angells be holy & cleane And the suffuming or suffumigacion is bread of w ch spirits [32 r ] liveth And fasting and Cleannesse and

Clarity sacrifice w th orison be the house of holy altar soules and trust in the author of good. Wherfore each man that hath these abovesaid in himself he shall attaine or neigh and he shall have profitt.

And Salomon said these be that befalleth in suffumigacions, anon shall come to us fume and then odor and of the fume a cloude ^

of the cloud an high cloude and wynde, and of the wynde ascendeth the cloude higher and of the Cloude an high winde ascendeth higher and is made a soule And of this the spirit is made higher and of the spirit and angell of heaven, and of angells light. And these be caused by cleane suffumigacion. And know thou that suffumigacions be of vii maners. Some sothely sharpe, and other penetrative or percing. Other sweete smelling other stinking, other simple, other meke other of greefe other sothely of peace, or everich of these or of these manners is after his odor savor nature and complexion. Wherfore Hermes said that as coldenes congealeth water w ch is colde, and as water of the sea is congealed w th great, and as

Azertacona congealeth the water of wells, and everiche of these congealeth the water one w th coldenes another w th hotnes another by arte another by nature, and the matter is made one body and one gobbet. And knowe thou that good suffumigacion gathereth togither and constrayneth and maketh spirits to appeare in the aire, and secret or privy things And it maketh them to take a body w th out eyne seeth.

And Salomon said that as the Adamant draweth 20 Above ^ appears &. [32 v ] Iron to himself, so knowe thou that suffumigacion gathereth together and draweth the spirits of the ayre, and maketh them to come to the place where thou doest it and will gather them togither. And the wiseman said suffumigacion is like to the roote of

Arzolle ffor as it Joyneth togither gobbette of flesh into one. So suffumigacions gathereth togither spirits of heaven or heavenly w ch the 4 elements and they make that they taketh a body, and spirits taketh fulfilleth that be axed of them and that to likenes of a mirror to w ch if there be sett before what figure thou wylte a like appeareth w th in the fumigacion made Cleanly and invocation in the hower after the spirits proporcionall. The spirits appeareth to us, and new operations and worchings w th fulfilling upon the thing that thou asketh, and be thou never deceived in the knowledge of suffumigacions, and putt thou thy mynde in them lest they be transposed, and thou shalt fulfill as that were and after that thou doest as he said.

And Salomon said I will touché somewhat to thee of the nature of suffumigacions, who that useth it much it maketh to see in sleepe or in sothenes grene things and yellowe and divers colors melancholious fumigacion sheweth leady things

Sanguine fumigacion sheweth red things, and otherwise it is shewing of purpure color fflegmaticke fumigacion sheweth white things and fayre. And so understand thou after that the nature were and the appearing of spirits [33 r ] and of their colo r and visions and the worke of them shall be after the sharpenes of it and the goodnes and the direction of fumigii that is fulfilling of the thing after that the Image were formed and the

Orison of the thing nempned and the trust for all is in the intention of the man and in the hower in w ch it is done.

Now we have said how every of the planetts hath his fumigacions Now say we the fumigacions of the xii signes and of the xxxvi faces of them.

And the sunday the first hower is of Solis, and all of the day altogether we should give this masticke & muscum as we have said of planets in the beginning if this booke of Thymiamatu, and to understand thou of all other knowe thou the suffumigacions of tymes

In the first tyme lignu ~ aloes, thus & crocu ~ In the second tyme Thymiama. Costum mastice. In the third tyme Sandalus Cassia and mirtu ~ .

Dicamus nunc suffumigia 4 partiu ~ mundi &c

Say we now suffumigacions of the 4 partes of the worlde and of the 4 elements.

And Salomon said each man that would do any thing by this booke putt he his mynde to the chapter of thymiamatu ~ .

That he knowe the kindes or things & justly

Can meddle them. And so knowe thou that thou might easily worke by it and w th out travayle thou might fulfilall thing that thou desyrest to see. Now we have fulfilled one Chapiter of fumigiis or fumigacions, and we will say furthermore yet upon w ch was or intencion w th the help of God.

Heere beginneth the fourth booke that speaketh upon tymes of y e yeare

In Dei noie py incipio scribere libris istu &c

In the name of the meeke God I beginne to write this booke that is said or called Cephar

Raziel w ch the Angell Raziel gave to Adam. And it shall speake upon the 4 tymes of the yeere & moneths & dayes w th his night how we should nempe each thing and knowe each man. That this is said the booke of tymes, and the

Angell gave it that is said might and great b

by the manndement of the Creator quicke God & in all things mighty. And for that Adam should knowe all things by w ch he would knowe in this worlde what it is what it was and what it should be in all things in the 12 moneths of the yeere and dayes & howers and that by order and similitude of Cleane fastings and of washings of sacrifice of suffumigacions made by 7 dayes or the _________________________________ _____________________

This "b" is smudged out. [34 v ] first mone were, and ere the sonne should assende his taile the ascendent, and ere the sonne should ascend upon his starre Zedek Jovis and they should be nempned in this booke by monthe of holy angells that have might upon the 7 heavens formed of fyer and the beholding of them is of fyer and the life of him is fyer. And they seemed clothed w th fyer And they be covered w th fyer. And from the fyer the went out and in the fyer they dwelleth and they be of great fellowships mighty upon the xii moneths of the yeere by the precept of the Creato r of it w ch said the world be it and all angels be, and were before it, and there be vii powers before the face of it, and to eache of them is given might and hath a day of the moneth and of the weeke. And of them some be standing in environ and some be sitting in chaires w th great honor serving to the Creato r , and they be evermore ready and bound to go out and to enter, to come and to go and to do all good and evill whatsoever is made and to enchant and to put downe and to cover prily things and to discover or make revelacion. And all this that we have said by the manndmt of God, and all the more angells and lesse, and the princes of them w th their powers w th their odors or w th their fellowships they clipeth themselves everiche w th their names and w ch be selly . i . heigh or sovereigne evermore they praise God the Creato r w ch formed them. And also all the powers of all heavens in the moneth and in the day in w ch he formed them and they all speaking to himself togither as men. And

Raziel said that these angells wrote these names and this booke. [35 r ] And he said that there be 7 angells mighty upon vii starres and these bene potestates or powers mighty upon vvi dayes of the weeke And they be keepers of them and of the xxiiii howers of the day and of the vii heavens and of the xii signes and of all other things that governeth the worlde.

And Raziel said to Adam beholde knowe and w th hold these vii powers or potestates w ch have power in the vii heavens and the vii starres. The names of w ch be these Sabaday that is Saturnus. Zedek that is Jupiter.

Madin that is Mars. Hanina that is Sol. Noga that is

Venus

Cocab . i . Mercurius. Labana . i . Luna.

The names of the vii heavens in w ch they be borne be these Samin raquia Siagum Mahum. Macon. Zebul.

Arabeck upon Samyn goeth Luna. Upon Raquia goeth Mercurius and upon Arabeck Saturnus and so understand thou of other

The names of Angells that have power upon the vii starres and goeth upon the vii heavens and other while in their chaires be these Capziel.

Satquel

Samael. Raphael. Amael. Michael.

Gabriel.

And the power of these is that Capziel is the power of Sabaday. Satquel of Zedek. And

Mamael of Madyn and Raphael of Hanina. Amael of Noga.

Michael of Cocab. Gabriel of Lubona. And everiche of these sytteth in his heaven. And the meynees of them all about and there be divers colors as white blacke red yellow greene leady pardi viati medled overgilt and of the color of a pecocke fether and of many other colors

These be the Angels that have power upon the 12 moneths of the yeere. The names of the moneths [35 v ] be these Nisan yar zinantamus abelul

Tisirin

Marquesuam quislep tobez or thebeth

Sabat adar petadar postm9 The names of potestates be these

And they be 12 capitalls, that is one upon everiche moneth of Luna and the rather that is the other is

Oriel Sasuyel Amariel. Noriel. Biraquel magnia saciel. And everiche of these hath so many potestates helpers more or greater as there be sayes in the moneth or many other servants of them.

And the aforesaid

Angells a man may knowe all things that is to come in everiche yeere, and in everiche tyme and in everiche moneth and everiche day and everiche hower w th the proper signes of them who that knoweth them well if he will knowe of many reynes or fewe or when they shallbe or if they shall be or no. and the day and hower when they shall fall.

And a man may knowe by them w ch is his signe and his starre and he may knowe of his lyfe if it shall be of long tyme or of shorte in the worlde sand other things either for a sicke man or an whole, either for a man either from a woman. Or he may knowe a subtill understanding or sharpe he may knowe what is to come and do w th it what he will. And the dayes of the yeere or of Solis alone (in w ch may be done the worching of this booke) 365 and the 4 th parte of one day in the week of dayes. the yeere of

Luna be otherwise 360 dayes or four howers and 46 minutes after the yeere of Luna. And the fulfilling of tyme in this. In one tyme be 3 monethes, and when the tymes [36 r ] befower sothely till to 12. And knowe thou that Nisan that is the first moneth entereth in the first day of the first mone whereat were Luna prima of the moneth of Martii and so of other. and the first very tyme is from the first poynt into the w ch the sonne entereth into

Arietem, till it enter the first poynt of

Cancer. And

The 2 from Cancer in Libran, And the third from

Libra to Capricornu ~ . And the 4 th from

Capricorno into Ariente s . And this is the better distinction of tymes

And in the hower w ch Raziel gave the booke to Adam of tymes of moneths and names of things then was Adam comforted onely wherin thilk day fillen lightnings meved and thunders and Coruscations appeariden, and there was in that day great tempest in all the worlde both in the lande and in the ayre, and in the sea.

And in the hower in w ch the Angell Raziel opened this booke and gave it to Adam. Then he gave to him might and strength & surety in all the words of this booke and myracles that be in it.

And when this booke fell before the face of Adam, then

Adam dread full muche and quoke of great dread And fell downe unto the earth as though he had bene dead

Then the Angell Raziel said to Adam

Rise and be thou comforted for knowe thou that a very soothfast spirit hath descended in thee from the hight heavens w ch hath lightned thee and hath putt in this hower in thee knwing and might, and that thou sahlt attaine that that thou shalt aske. And I say to thee that thou consider in this booke and beholde in it and by it thou shalt knowe and understand whatere was and that is [36 v ] and that shall be after thee And in that hower in w ch this booke was given to Adam fier fell upon the brinke of the floud of paradice And the

Angell ascended by the flame of the fier to the heavens And an Angell descended in similitude of a white cloude and spake w th him plainely and came to him as a man well bright and cleere like to the cleerenes of a starre in his body and full of many other all about

And in ascending when he was severed evermore

Adam was like to a lambe w ch formed well bright as the flame of fyre and cleere then the fyre of a fornace in w ch golde is purged And then

Adam sawe this and found and knewe that of the

Lord of all worlds w ch is a great king and mighty things.

This booke was sent for him. And then he considered and looked in it w th holynes and

Cleannesse. And then he beheld in it all things that he would know in this worlde. And this was the first word that

Adam had w th the Angell Raziell And therfore he considered in it and governed himself by it.

Salomon said upon the foresaid reason above after that the Angell Raziell said unto

Adam that it behoveth to knowe the tymes and one hower before another and one tyme before another ffor who that soweth wheat in Ver it may mot be gathered on the same Ver. And this is after the temperament of the party of the northe. And therfore it is necessary or needful to divide the yeere into 4 parts and a moneth into 4 partes and an hower into fowre partes [37 r ] And if thou keepest these divisions and understandest thou shalt profitt in all that thou wilt, for this is sothe and all naturall things is made in the tyme and in the day and in the hower according as the higher or sovereigne

Creato r hath ordeyned. Raziel said of thou wilt knowe any thing of this worlde that is of other that be in the heaven or heavens w ch be fellowshipped w th the first heavens. Or if thou wilt do any thing yt be fulfilled to thy will clense thou thy body by 7 daies that is washe thee and eat thou not a thing of chesce neither of raven, neither of evill party neither a thing uncleane neither that is fallen to death, neither a beast of 4 feete neither other. And eschewe thou thee from malice and falsenes, and thou shalt not drinke wyne neither shalt thou eat fishes or any thing w ch bloud goeth out. And ioyne thou thee not to a woman pollute neither menstruate neither enter thou into an house where is a dead man neither go thou beside the pitt of a dead man. neither by him that suffereth gonorrhea and eschewe thou and be thou ware of night lest thou fall into pollution and keepe thee from lechery and evill pride. And do thou that thou be evermore cleane and be thou in Orison or prayer, and keepe thy tong from saying evill and leasing and fast thou clenely

And keepe thou thy body from doing evill and sinne

And lighten thou the house w th orison and prayse the angells and do thou almes to needy men and charity and be not thou ioyned to evill men neither to uncleane and clothe thou thee w th cleane clothes the larger that thou mightest and evermore trust thou unto God and [37 v ] rise thou early and pray to the Creato r that he dresse thee and washe thee and fulfill thy peticion and thou shalt attayne to that thou askest w th God

The proper names of y e planets in the 4 tymes

Ista sunt noia stellar ~ qui sunt et vadunt &c

These be the names of the seaven starres that be [45 r ] and goeth in the 7 heavens everiche by himself Sabaday

Zedek Madyn Hanina noga Cocab

Labana And ewiche of these hath his owne proper name upon the fowre tymes of the yeere as we shall shewe in this chapter beneath. And Salomon said in explanation of this place. Wherfore everiche planet and eche thing beforesaid changeth his name in each tyme for his thing ffor heere standeth some tree and from thilk tree cometh to us fowre things. And of these fower things the first is when it burgeoneth the second is the flower. The third is the fruite ___the fourth is the seed when it is in it.

Therfore the sonne is said in the first tyme hott and moist. In the second hott and dry In the third

Colde & dry in the fourth Colde and moyst. These be the worchings of the sonne, and the propertyes of it upon all things for another reason the names of things abovesaid ___ be changed in fower parts of the yeere, for ewiche tyme hath his nature and his Complexion by himself as we have said of water w ch is in the first tyme temperate and in the second heat and in the third rotton and in the fourth Congealed

And so other things of the worlde ewiche by himself.

The example whie Raziel put his name to eache thing.

In everiche thing be the 4 lords that have might in eche thing and everiche in his tyme. And it is said that there be 4 elements whereof one is fyer that hath might in the first tyme and so other.

Wherefore knowe thou that everiche thing changeth his name [45 v ] As first we say a man a childe and then a yongling and then a middle man in the fourth tyme an old man. And so things changeth their names who will cleape them a leader and this is in a man

And so understand thou of Mettaile and in all things that waxeth and liveth. And Salomon said and all other that it was more inst that eache thing should have 7 names then 4 for that all they might descend of 4 bodyes, and to them is given all the might Sothely they put 4 names to everiche thing that it were more easy to worche these 4 names be assigned upon the city of David my fathers and myne w ch had many names. Sothly the wiseman Isaac the wiseman said that the first name was Remusale, and then

Jebusale

Jeroboam Jerusalem. And these names this

City received for 4 Lords that were in yt

And everiche putt to his proper name And for this like things of this worlde receiveth 4 names in themselves or 7 or more after that God hath ordeyned. And therfore no man marvaile of these names of things in 4 tymes. In the higher heaven that is the first from the ou/

Heere beginneth the fifth booke that treateth of Cleannesse

Dixit Salomon revelatu ~ fuit nitri de isto libro &c Salomon said It was shewed to me of this booke of Raziell and many angells after that

I had the booke and of these w ch nourished powers [46 v ] and vertues and matter and stength of the potestates above, and that by the manndement and obedience of the Creato r or maker of the worlde

And they said thus Salomon thou hast asked witt and wisdome and fairenes and might in will compleate and named full great for evermore upon earthes.

And knowe that all kings and lesse men shall come after thee and w ch should heere speake of thee should love thee and worshippe thee and should set price of thee and should prayse thee and keepe thou this booke, and worche thou w th it w th reverence and cleannesse. And Salomon said to the benigne angell Natanael w ch hath might in thaire and this evermore was

was fellowshipped to Salomon w ch be thilke 7 bodyes w ch we seene above bright fayre cleane and cleere w h ceaseth never to go neither the wayes of them be void and they fayleth never but evermore dureth going their wayes. And it that farryeth more in going his way fulfilleth it in 30 yeeres. And then they appeareth such as they were before and w ch went before thus they sawe. And thus it us said that they should be how long God would.

And thus

I say of an hundreth yeeres and a 1000 that they never be changed neither in meving but we have found them as the Prophets and other olde men founden. And the angell Natanael said to

Salomon.

The 7 bright bodyes w ch thou seest above

This word "was" is crossed out. [47 r ] above be put beneath And they in going upwards holdeth in balance or in rule the 4 elemts beneath

And therfore the meving of them ceaseth not for such might the Creato r gave to them. And knoweth thou that the matter of them is simple and pure w th out corruption and evermore durable. And the state of them is likenes to the Lord that formed although they obey to him in all things. And Natanael said furthermore to Salomon knowe thou that in the heavens of the 7 bright bodyes be angels w th out number mighty in all thing, and everiche of them hath his proper mighte and his strength and vertue. And they be unlike among themselves as men togither or other beasts And everiche serveth of his office to the creato r that formed them or made them. And

Salomon said to Nathaniel w ch is the lyfe or the might or the service that these angells doth. And

Nathaniel said the lyfe of them is of cleannesse of

Orison and of trustines and the might of them is of suffumigii holocausti et sacrificii. And the service of the is when the Creato r woll they go from place to place when any cleane man hath prayed to the

Creato r as it beseemeth And then they do good or evill as the creato r will for in them is power science & will complete

And Salomon said w ch be these 7 bright bodies and how be they named and of what thing serveth everiche And Nathaniel said that same that Raziel said to Adam, the higher of these that goeth slower is said Sabaday and all the realmes of his heaven be [47 v ] full of Ice snowe and haile and wrothe ranco r and Coldenes And all the angells that bene there bene clothed w th darkenes full darke.

And the greatnes of them be full high and full long and small and upon the earthes and upon divels and upon darknesse and coldeness and drinesse. And this hath power upon wyndes of this nature And they have power of doing good and evill And the angell of it is Beel crowned upon all other. In the second heaven for luke standeth Zedek and all the realmes of him.

Dixit Salomon rex filius regis David &c

Salomon the king said the sonne of

David that was king of Jerusalem of Jury and

Damaske of Egypt Lord of Babilony prince of science covetouse of cleannesse ensearcher of privityes keeper of good true men, avoider of leasing of poore men, of vertues desire upon lre vertues and speedfulnes of words busily thinking and most subtilly in mynde insearching. I have enquired and knowe that in wordes of power vertue and effecte and of all humo rs whole and health and there may be sufficient fulfilling. And he said I see that the most fame is of wise men and prophetts by words and books w ch they have left into testimony of them And I see that the sonnes of

Adam and of Hermes and of Noe and their sonnes & many other prophets have left books by their death by w ch they should clarify their fame and anents men [48 r ] glory should remayne. And I see that my father king David compowned or made some booke in w ch be conteyned all orisons w ch he might knowe and fynde w ch sothely latin men that is Romanes clipeth the psalter w ch sothe it is if prayers alone and of holt names of the creato r it is names the head of Orisons.

In the same booke king David wrote all things that ever he might knowe of patriarke and of old wise men to the praising of the creato r And I king

Salomon sothely long studyeng in holy words w th vertues and miracles I founde to be while there is fulfilled in eche thing worching trust and will sawe in the books in w ch while I studies long found and knowe that Adam and

Hermes and Noe and Moyses and many other most wise men had great privityes & vertues in their bookes.

Cu ergo veteres et antiquos Sapientes &c

When therfore I understand old wise men to have made bookes how or w th what wytt or w th what arte

I might knowe the sciences of all the aforesaid

I enquired and there answered unto mean old man of good mynde and understanding w ch was cleped zebraymayl

And I said Adam had a maker and a m r that is to say o r

Lord his maker and gabriell to m r ffurthermore

Hermes the discreet and most wise man and Moyses had a master and a friend that is to witt

Cretu s Also

Aaron sothely had a friend of w ch therfore is made resistance that a wise man may not be w th out a m r how arresteth it thun in thee that two may be wise w th out one m r But that thou be wise these I knowe to be [48 v ] necessary to thee. A wise m r and discreete long and continuall study many olde bookes of great wise men made oft and ofter over red profitt & amended glad and continuall health of thy body long lyfe w th out cares and travailes quiet. The

Salomon said to the wise man Is not this possible to be done by a shorter way then that thou hast said above

Zebraymayl answered king by a lighter & shorter way then this ne unknowe thou not to may be done

To whom Salomon said How therfore to whome the wise man answered agayne saying

Open thou privily and fully the arke of the Testant no man knowing or understanding in w ch all secrets or privityes and olde wisdomes and words of great power and of vertue thou shalt fynde By w ch not only thou shalt knowe things passed but these also that be present and likewise these that be to come. The Salomon answered agayne saying for this that thou hast answered to me I give thanks to that high and blessed creato r w ch reigneth after that it pleased to him all things w th word alone he formed or made. And there is not any more noble or mightier then he w th out whome no vertue or power is w ch giveth wisedome to wise men, he is that is of all things the fyrste sithe he is w th out beginning and of all things the last sith there is no end of him. This is of all thinges [49 r ] maker and none ymade of whome the raigne or raigning is and shall be and of whome all worke be good and of whome he will over all is free sith there is none that may againe say to him.

Whereupon Salomon trowing or trusting to Zebraymayl made the arke of the testament to be brought before him. And he sought all the bookes of Moyses and of Aaron of

Adam and of Noe and of their sonnes and of Hermes and of other prophetts, and of others w ch he might finde of the miracle of words and the vertues of them And he sought all the old Idolls of heathen men & Images of divers tongs having writings and all things graven w ch might be founde by all the parts of the worlds

And he made them to be gathered togithers into his pallace, and he brought forth M rs of everiche one of the 72 w ch should expound to him privy lres or hid Y. C. M. Hebrew Caldy Syriacke greeke writing and that they should expound to him that w ch were hidde. And when the lres were expounded he sawe the more party to accord w th hit in vertues of words.

Rex ergo Salomon fecit arca nocte quadam aperiri &c therfore King Salomon made the arke some might privily to be opened that in the arke w th reasons afterward he should be learned.

And

Salomon said After that the sovreigne and Almighty

Creato r had infused that grace of his spirit in me

I opened the arke of the testament in w ch

I found all [49 v ] things w ch long and studiously before I had sought

Among w ch

I found the booke w ch is cleped Raziel w ch the creato r sent to Ada m by the angell

Raziel when upon the brinke of the floud of paradice weeping thilke creato r he prayed and of him forgivenes of his sinnes he besought. And I found the booke w ch the creator gave to Moyses in the hill when he made him partner of his privityes In w ch three bookes that is three Orisons I found.

The first the prophets clepeth Semiforas w ch the creato r gave to Adam in Paradice

The second booke is w ch the creato r gave to Adam in paradice in the hower of necessity or need

The third is w ch the creato r gave to

Moyses in the hill of Sinay after that he had fulfilled the fasting.

And Salomon said I found in the arke a pott full of manna, and the yard of Moyses w ch was changed into a serpent and efte from a serpent into a yard And the tables of the lawe and peeces of the first lres w ch Moyses for the sinnes of the people in his wrothe he broke in the ground sothely of the arke I found some golden tables quadtrate or fowre cornered In w ch were 15 precious stones twelve tribes or lynages of Israell by similitude likened And in everiche stone were written the holy highe names of the creato r of the booke

Semiforas out drawen And I found a boxe of marble having greene colo r as Jaspis coloured [50 r ] And in this boxe were 7 figures, and in each figure 7 great and virtuous names of the Creato r to Moyses tolde and other 7 w ch the creato r taught

Adam in paradice.

And this is a secret or privity w ch much leaned and covered ought worshipfully to be kept. I found also about thextremityes of arke 24 vertuous rings w th names and figures of the creato r writt in

Semiforas w th divers colo rs written or figured And I myself

Salomon had one of thilk rings having mynde to the same

In w ch

I knowe to have founden such vertue that when

I said make it to rayne and it rayned And when I said eft as thou hast made it to rayne so make thilk rayne to cease agayne and it ceased. And beside Jerusalem the same realme aswell of tempests as of raines it did or made And Salomon said I found

Semiforas w th w ch

Moyses made the plagues in Egypt, and w th w ch he dryed the red sea, and w th w ch also he drewe out water out of the stone, and w th w ch also he knewe all the cleannesse of his people, and w th w ch also overcame princes and kings and mighty men, and w th w ch whatever he would do he did and that w ch he would destroy he destroyed And w th w ch fulfilled it at his owne will

Capitulum explanationis hujus nois

Semiforas &c

The chapter of explanation of this name semiforam

And it is that that all divells and wynds and men as well quicke as dead, and all spirits and all bodyes dreadeth. Wherefore sothely Semiforas is said or nempned the first secret or privity and of great old and much yleaned and hidde and of great vertue and power to gett what ever he would.

Semiforas is a word [50 v ] w ch ought not to be shewed to all men, neither by hit (but w th great necessity or anguish) ought any man to worche. And then w th dread of the creato r he ought cleanely and meekely and devoutly to nempne it. Also Semiforas is roote and beginning and foundament of oryson, ensample of good lyfe trust of mans body the prison or prayer of a Just man thilk creator dreading. And Salomon said about Semiforas

These be necessary w th mekeness fasting, with oryson trust w th clarity cleannesse, w th patience meekenes and constancy of a man w th out w ch yow might worche nothing. And w th the w ch whatever thou wilt thou shalt gett. When all vertues in worching by Semiforas ought to be nethelesse these 7 that is mekeness trueth patience abstinence trust clarit mercy ought in him principally to be had or to abound.

Si ergo per Semiforas operari volumes oportet quod simus &c If therfore we will worche by Semiforas it behoveth that we be bright or cleane of body and in trust stedfast and from falsenesse and leasing fully departed. It behoveth also to dread the creator and the creatures of him among w ch we ought to dread most the sonne w ch giveth to us light and darkenes colde and hott w ch is cause of changing of tymes and of temperment of the aire and of herbes. We ought also to knowe the beholdings of the moone and the moneths w ch by hit 12 and 5, 13 by accounted as the said nyssan yar tina &c And we ought to knowe the waxing [51 r ] and decreasing of the mone when by it all creatures as the sea flouds and welles and all the neather bodyes waxing and decreasing taken bloud in the veynes and marrowe in the head and the bones.

After that the mone taketh waxing & decreasing they be nourished in thilk Also the enfusiall or melting of metalls ne doubt thou not the vertue of the mone to worche. We ought also to knowe

Sabaday .i. Saturne by whome hunger and dearth and all anguish in londs befalleth. We ought also to knowe & dread

Zedek .i. Jove by whome honor and health and righteousnes and a;; good is had. We should also knowe and dread Madin .i. Martem of whome chollers & strifes and hate and battailes and leasing and all evills cometh.

We ought also to knowe and dread

Hanina .i. solem by whome we have light and darkenes & cleerenes and by whome tymes as evill unto good into evill be transmuted or changed. We ought also to dreade and know Nogam .i. Venerem by whom e we have meate and drinke and all necessaries or things that be needful by whome peace and love and dilection among men is made fast and stable. We ought also to dread Cocab .i. Mercury for he is nigher to us then all except the mone by whome merchandise and venditions or sellings and all seculer things be exercised. Therfore behold y ow those that be said and most the spirits abovesaid and thus thou shalt profitt And whatever thou shalt axe of the creator rightfully thou shalt have it. [51 v ] Heere beginneth the Sixth book that treateth of the names of heavens

Dixit Salomon oes coiter horas et malas &c

Salomon said All men commonly good howers and evill, and good dayes and evill, good signes and evil to be they affirmeth And this w th many reasons they Confirmeth And I my self Salomon have proved the dayes and howers of madin & Sabaday w ch

I found full greevous for to worche. I have proved also the howers of zedek and

Noga And I sawe what ever I would worche of them lightly

I wrought. The howers of Cocab and

Labana otherwhile greevous otherwhile good I have proved to be And I sawe that in the day and in the hower coia nothing of my will I might fulfill.

And know thou that the spirits abovesaid anentis divers men diversty be nempned ffor the first in

Hebrew is Sabaday in Arabicke zoal, in greeke orgrue fenes in Latin Saturnus it is cleped or nempned

And I say therfore that the first hower of the day of Sabaday is said Sabaday the second zedek the third Madyn the fourth Hanina the fifth

Noga. the sixth Cocab the 7 th

Labana

And the howers of the might ought to be nempned to them. And knowe thou that by the starres above said and dayes and howers whatever thou wilte thou shalt understande And thou shalt knowe the hidde and privy willes of men.

Cumg per Semiforas operari voluerat &c [52 r ] When he would worche by Semiforas first or ever he beganne any thing it behoveth him to name the 7 names of Angells, for some angells be upon the seven heavens, and upon the 7 planets and upon the 7 dayes of the weeke and upon the 7 mettalls and upon the 7 colo rs and upon the 7 words having power, the names of the w ch be these Raphael. gabriel.

Incipiunt srae et verba et noia Semiforas &c

Heere beginneth the lre and words and names of Semiforas w ch god the Creato r gave to

Adam in paradice. In w ch be fowre letters w ch to the 4 parties of the worlde and to the 4 elements and to the 4 complexions and to the 4 natures of the beasts they be likened such they be ______

And these be letters piteously and devoutly and meekely name thou that peticion in all things be fulfilled. Salomon said ther be to be said that there are 7 semiforas. And the first is the 28 At this place are eight poorly formed

Hebrew letters. Since no transliteration is given, it is impossible to determine with any certainty which letters are intended, given the similarities among the Hebrew letters heh (H), chet (CH), and tav (T or TH), and, if badly written, between vav (V) and yud (Y). My best guess is that the letters are supposed to show the tetragrammaton forward and backward: YHVHHVHY. [53 v ] Semiforas of Adam in w ch be conteyned 4 chapters

The first is when Adam spake w th the creator in paradice.

The second is when he spake w th the angells

The third is when he spake w th the divels. The 4 th is when he spake w th men and w th fowles & fishes and beasts and reptiles and wilde beasts. The fifth when he spake w th seeds and herbes and trees and all growing things. The 6 when he spake w th wyndes and w th the 4 elemts. The 7 th when he spake w th the sunne and the moone and the starres And by the 7 vertues of Semiforas whatever he would do he did, and what ever he would destroy he destroyed. And this

Semiforu Adam had when the Creato r enspired grace into him.

Eight letters resembling those discussed in note 28 are written here, but crossed out.

Four letters are shown which look like variations of gimel or perhaps nunbut nothing close to yana in Hebrew. 31 Again, here are eight letters with little or no likeness to the word they represent.
