Figure 11. The First Pentacle of Saturn. – This Pentacle is of great value andutility for striking terror into the Spirits. Wherefore, upon its being shown to themthey submit, and kneeling upon the earth before it, they obey.Editor’s Note.– The Hebrew Letters within the square are the four great Names ofGod which are written with four letters:– YHVH, Yod, He, Vau, He; ADNI, Adonai;IIAI, Yiai (this Name has the same Numerical value in Hebrew as the Name EL); andAHIH, Eheieh. The Hebrew versicle which surrounds it is from Psalm lxxii 9; "TheEthiopians shall kneel before Him, His enemies shall lick the dust."Figure 12. The Second Pentacle of Saturn. – This Pentacle is of great valueagainst adversaries; and of especial use in repressing the pride of the Spirits.Editor’s Note.– This is the celebrated S A T O RA R E P OT E N E TO P E R AR O T A S, the most perfect existing form of double acrostic, as far as the arrangement of theletters is concerned; it is repeatedly mentioned in the records of medieval Magic; and,save to very few, its derivation from the present Pentacle has been unknown.

It will beseen at a glance that it is a square of five, giving twenty-five letters, which, added tothe unity, gives twenty-Six, the numerical value of IHVH. The Hebrew versicle surroundingit is taken from Psalm lxxii 8, "His dominion shall be also from the one seato the other, and from the flood unto the world’s end. This passage consists also ofexactly twenty-five letters, and its total numerical value (considering final letters withincreased numbers), added to that of the Name Elohim, is exactly equal to the totalnumerical value of the twenty-five letters in the Square.

The Third Pentacle of Saturn. – This should be made within theMagical Circle, and it is good for use at night when thou invokest the Spirits of thenature of Saturn.Editor’s Note. – The characters at the ends of the rays of the Mystic Wheel areMagical Characters of Saturn. Surrounding it are the Names of the Angels: Omeliel,Anachiel, Arauchiah, and Anazachia, written in Hebrew.
Figure 14. The Fourth Pentacle of Saturn. – This Pentacle serveth principallyfor executing all the experiments and operations of ruin, destruction, and death. Andwhen it is made in full perfection, it serveth also for those Spirits which bring news,when thou invokest them from the side of the South.Editor’s Note.– The Hebrew words around the sides of the triangle are from Deut.vi.4:– "Hear, O Israel, IHVH ALHINVH is IHVH ACHD." The surrounding versicle isfrom Psalm cix. 18:– "As he clothed himself with cursing like as with a garment, so letit come unto his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones." In the center of thePentacle is the mystic letter Yod.

Figure 15. The Fifth Pentacle of Saturn. – This Pentacle defendeth those whoinvoke the Spirits of Saturn during the night; and chaseth away the Spirits whichguard treasures.Editor’s Note.– The Hebrew letters in the angles of the Cross are those of theName IHVH. Those in the Angles of the Square form ALVH, Eloah. Round the foursides of the Square are the Names of the Angels:– Arehanah, Rakhaniel, Roelhaiphar,and Noaphiel. The versicle is: "A Great God, a Mighty, and a Terrible."– Deut x. 17.
Figure 16. The Sixth Pentacle of Saturn. – Around this Pentacle is each Namesymbolized as it should be. The person against whom thou shalt pronounce it shallbe obsessed by Demons.Editor’s Note.– It is formed from Mystical Characters of Saturn. Around it is writtenin Hebrew: "Set thou a wicked one to be ruler over him, and let Satan stand at hisright hand."Figure 17. The Seventh and Last Pentacle of Saturn. – This Pentacle is fit forexciting earthquakes, seeing that the power of each order of Angels herein invoked is sufficient to make the whole Universe tremble.

Figure 17.Editor’s Note.– Within the Pentacle are the Names of the Nine Orders of Angels,those of six of them in ordinary Hebrew Characters, and the remainder in the letterswhich are known as "the Passing of the River."

Figure 18.

The Second Pentacle of Jupiter. – This is proper for acquiringglory, honors, dignities, riches, and all kinds of good, together with great tranquillityof mind; also to discover Treasures and chase away the Spirits who preside over them.It should be written upon Virgin Parchment, with the pen of the swallow and theblood of the screech-owl.Editor’s Note.– In the center of the Hexagram are the letters of the Name AHIH,Eheieh; in the upper and lower angles of the same, those of the Name AB, the Father;in the remaining angles those of the Name IHVH. I believe the letters outside theHexagram in the reentering angles to be intended for those of the first two words ofthe Versicle, which is taken from Psalm cxii. 3:– "Wealth and Riches are in his house,and his righteousness endureth for ever."Figure 20. The Third Pentacle of Jupiter. – This defendeth and protecteththose who invoke and cause the Spirits to come. When they appear show unto themthis Pentacle and immediately they will obey.Editor’s Note.– In the upper left hand corner is the Magical Seal of Jupiter withthe letters of the Name IHVH.

Below it are theNames of the Angels Adoniel and Bariel, the letters of the latter being arranged abouta square of four compartments. Around is the Versicle from Psalm cxii. 3:– "Wealthand Riches are in his house, and his righteousness endureth for ever."
Figure 22. The Fifth Pentacle of Jupiter. – This hath great power. It servethfor assured visions. Jacob being armed with this Pentacle beheld the ladder whichreached unto heaven.Editor’s Note.– The Hebrew letters within the Pentacle are taken from the five lastwords of the versicle which surrounds it, each of which contains five letters. Theseare, then, recombined so as to form certain Mystical Names. The versicle is takenfrom Ezekiel i. 1:– "As I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of Elohim." In my opinion the versicle should onlyconsist of the five last words thereof, when the anachronism of Jacob using a Pentaclewith a sentence from Ezekiel will not longer exist.
Figure 23. The Sixth Pentacle of Jupiter. – It serveth for protection against allearthly dangers, by regarding it each day devoutedly and repeating the versicle whichsurroundeth it. "Thus shalt thou never perish."
Figures 22 and 23.Editor’s Note.– The four Names in the Arms of the Cross are:- Seraph, Kerub,Ariel, and Tharsis; the four rulers of the Elements. The versicle is from Psalm xxii 16,17:– "They pierced my hands and my feet, I may tell all my bones."

Within the same theNames IHVH, IHShVH Yeheshuah (the mystic Hebrew Name for Joshua or Jesus,formed of the ordinary IHVH with the letter Sh placed therein as emblematical of theSpirit), and Elohim. Around it is the sentence, John i. 4:– "In Him was life, and thelife was the light of man." This may be adduced as an argument of the greater antiquityof the first few mystical verses of the Gospel of St. John.Figure 27.

On either side is the Name "El Shaddai." Around iswritten in Latin:– "Behold His face and form by Whom all things were made, andWhom all creatures obey."Figure 33. The Second Pentacle of the Sun. – This Pentacle, and the precedingand following, belong to the nature of the Sun. They serve to repress the prideand arrogance of the Solar Spirits, which are altogether proud and arrogant by theirnature.Editor’s Note.– Mystical characters of the Sun and the Names of the Angels:–Shemeshiel, Paimoniah, Rekhodiah, and Malkhiel.Figure 34.

The words in the same characters round its three sidesare, in my opinion, from Genesis i. 1:– "In the beginning the Elohim created, etc.";but the characters are sadly mangled in the MSS. The versicle is from Psalms lxix. 23,and cxxxv. 16:– "Let their eyes be darkened that they see not; and make their loinscontinually to shake. They have eyes and see not."Figures 34 and 35.
