Books of Occult Philosophy we have not so compendiously as copiously declared the principles grounds and reasons of Magick it self and after what manner the experiments thereof are to be chosen elected and compounded to produce many wonderful effects but because in those books they are treated of rather Theorically then Practically and some also are not handled compleatly and fully and others very figuratively and as it were Enigmatically and obscure Riddles as being those which we have obtained unto with great study diligence and very curious searching and exploration and are heretofore set forth in a more rude and unfashioned maner Therefore in this book which we have composed and made as it were a Complement and Key of our other books of Occult Philosophy and of all Magical Operations we will give unto thee the documents of holy and undefiled verity and Inexpugnable and Unresistable Magical Discipline and the most pleasant and delectable experiments of the sacred Deities So that as by the reading of our other books of Occult Philosophy thou mayest earnestly covet the knowledge of these things even so with reading this book thou shalt truly triumph Wherefore let silence hide these things within the secret closets of thy religious brest and conceal them with constant Taciturnity This therefore is to be known That the names of the intelligent presidents of every one of the

do I account the Hebrews who glory in being the off-spring of their father Abraham to have been better then the former when also by the instinct of the devil after their coming up out of Egypt with cruel hands they violently assaulted the Prophets and holy men of God whom at length they also slew that I may hold my peace how diligently they have brought into their Religion the Gods or rather Devils of the Gentiles Castor I perceive by these thy assertions that one Devil and another Devil hath been adored for Gods for thou hast now said That the Greeks by the madness wherewith the devil possessed them have made unto themselves Saturn Jupiter Bacchus Venus and Flora for Gods which Lactantius in his fourth book De vera Sapientia also accounteth for Devils Pollux Declare I pray thee the words of Lactantius Castor Mark them they are thus The same Devils are the gods of the Gentiles but if any one will not believe these things of me then let him credit Homer who joyneth the great Jupiter to the great Devils and the other Poets and Philosophers do call them sometimes Gods and sometimes Devils whereof there is one true and another false for the most wicked Spirits when they are conjured do confess themselves to be Devils but where they are worshipped they declare themselves to be Gods that they may thrust men into errors and draw them from the worship of the true God through whom alone eternal death can be escaped Pollux It is expedient for me now to be more inquisitive in this discourse whether there be power given to the Devils to foretell things to come concerning which thing hitherto I have not been able to dart at the right mark for this question seemeth sufficiently doubtful unto me Castor St. Augustine in his book De Natura Daemonum dissolveth this Gordoneus knot and saith That the damned Spirits being filled full of all manner of impiety and wickedness do sometimes challenge to themselves power of foreseeing things to come because in the sense of their Aiery bodies they have a fan more strong and prevalent power of fore-knowing then men of earthly bodies can have or because of the incomparable swiftness of their aiery bodies which wonderfully exceedeth not onely the celerity of men and wilde beasts but also the flying of birds by which means they are able to declare things long before they come to be known which we by reason of the earthly slowness of our sense cease not to wonder at and admire or because of the benefit of their continual life they obtain this wonderful experience of things which we cannot attain to because of the shortness of our momentaneous life which is but as it were a bubble Poll. This last assertion of S. Augustine seemeth unto me to be more true then the rest because the Series of many years doth cause great experience Cast If any one shall deny these opinions of Augustine as erroneous Damascenus setteth a greater witness of these things without all exception before our eyes who in his second book of Orthodox Faith saith thus That the devils cannot foreknow things to come for that belongs only unto God but so much as they are able to know they have from the disposition of the celestial and inferiour bodies Poll. Why therefore do the devils so willingly and of their own accord undertake Prophecies and to answer Oracles What benefit have they from hence Cast Nothing but that hereby they seek to get great estimation and covet to be counted worthy of admiration and to be adored in stead of Gods Poll. We know that the devil is the father of lyes Castor from whence we are piously to believe that those things which he foretelleth he extracteth from his own lyes Cast Furthermore the Prophet Esaias saith thus Shew the things that are to come hereafter and tell us that we may know that ye are gods And the Apostle Peter also saith The prophecie came not in old time by the will of man but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the holy Ghost Poll. No man therefore will deny that they do sometimes foretel things to come Cast No man certainly but for what cause that is attained to Chrysostom doth most clearly teach in these words It is granted he saith that sometimes the devil doth speak truth that he might commend his own lying with rare verity whereas if he should never tell the truth he could deceive no man neither would his lying suffice him to tempt with Thus far Chrysostome Notwithstanding if he understand that he hath not grace granted unto him of himself to foretel the truth he foretelleth things nevertheless but so obscurely saith S. Augustine that he always layeth the blame of the things by him so foretold upon the interpreter thereof Porphyrius in his book of Oracles although he be the greatest maintainer of devils and the most expert teacher of diabolical Arts nevertheless he saith with the aforesaid Doctors that the foreknowledge of things to come is not only intricate to men but also uncertain to the gods and full of many obscurities Poll. Thou hast said that the predictions of the devils are done in this manner that they may gain authority to themselves amongst the credulous people and be worshipped instead of Gods for what end do the evil spirits work Miracles Cast What is a Miracle Pollux Poll. A new and unwonted accident which cometh to pass contrary to its course and custom and draweth men into admiration thereof Cast But do they work Miracles Poll. They do for whereby dost thou believe that Aesculapius was honoured in his Consecration for a god but onely by the means of a Miracle when he conveyed a Serpent from Epidaurus to Rome What gave so great authority to Juno but onely the working of a Miracle when her Image of wood was asked by Furius Camillus whether it would be carried to Rome and it answered with a humane voice It would Also from thence Fortune was made a goddess because her Statua in the way to Latium in the hearing of many people not once but oftentimes spoke with a humane voice In the 8 Chapter of the Acts of the Apostles we read of Miracles done by Simon the son of Rachel and in Exod. 8. of the Magicians of Pharoah who in the sight of many people brought forth frogs and serpents and turned the waters into blood Apuleus doth testifie the power of men to be so great in Inchantments that the devils do not only work Miracles by the means of men but they are able also to subvert Nature and with a Demoniacal Incantation make violent streams to stay their course To turn the windes To make the Sun stand still To break the course of the Moon To lay impediments upon the Stars To prolong the day and to shorten the night as Lucanus excellently sheweth Cessavere vices rerum dilataque longa
