Magical Requisites

"First, thou shalt know and observe the Moon’s Age for thy working. The best days be when the Moon Luna is 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, or 14 days old, as Solomon saith; and no other days be profitable." - Observations

The Magical Circle

This is the Form of the Magical Circle of King Solomon, the which he made that he might preserve himself therein from the malice of these Evil Spirits.
This Magical Circle is to be made 9 feet across, and the Divine Names are to be written round it, beginning at Ehyeh, and ending at Levanah, Luna.

[...] The square in the centre of the circle, where the word "Master" is written,[...] In the Hexagrams the outer trianagles where the letters A, D, O, N, A, I, appear [...].
In the Pentagrams outside the circle, the outer triangles where "Te, tra, gram, ma, ton," [...]

The coiled serpent is only shown in one private codex, the Hebrew names being in most cases simply written round in a somewhat spiral arrangement within the double circle. [...] The small Maltese crosses are placed to mark the conclusion of each separate set of Hebrew names. These names are those of Deity Angels and Archangels allotted by the Qabalists to each of the 9 first Sephiroth or Divine Emanations.
In English letters they run thus, beginning from the head of the serpent:
+ Ehyeh Kether Metatron Chaioth ha-Qadesh Rashith ha-Gilgalim S.P.M. (Sphere of the Primum Mobile)
+ Iah Chokmah Ratziel Auphanim Masloth S.S.F. (Sphere of the Fixed Stars) or S.Z. (Sphere of the Zodiac)
+ Iehovah Elohim Binah Tzaphquiel Aralim Shabbathai S. (Sphere) of Saturn

The Magical Triangle of Solomon

This is the form of the Magical Triangle, into the which Solomon did command the Evil Spirits.

It is to be made at 2 feet distance from the Magical Circle and it is 3 feet across.
Note that this triangle is to be placed toward that quarter whereunto the Spirit belongeth. And the base of the triangle is to be nearest unto the Circle, the apex pointing in the direction of the quarter of the Spirit. Observe thou also the Moon in thy working, as aforesaid, etc. Anaphaxeton is sometimes written Anepheneton.

This is the Form of the Hexagram of Solomon, the figure whereof is to be made on parchment of a calf’s skin, and worn at the skirt of thy white vestment, and covered with a cloth of fine linen which and pure, the which is to be shown unto the Spirits when they do appear, so that they be compelled to take human shape upon them and be obedient.

The Pentagram of Solomon

"This is the Form of the Pentagram of Solomon, the figure whereof is to be made in Sol or Luna (Gold or Silver) and worn upon thy breast; having the Seal of the Spirit required upon the other side thereof. It is to preserve thee from danger, and also to command the Spirits by."

Solomon's Magical Ring

"This Ring is to be held before the face of the Exorcist to preserve him from The stinking fumes of spirits &c."

The 13 spirit called Beleth

"… and you must have allwayes a silver Ring on the middle finger of the left hand, held against your face as they do for Amaimon"

The Vessel of Brass

"wherein King Solomon did shut up the Evil Spirits, etc.
The seal [see figures below] was made is brass to cover this vessel with at the top."

"Also note! Thou mayest command these spirits into the Vessl of Brass in the same manner as thou dost into the triangle, by saying: “that thou dost forthwith appear before this Circle, in this Vessel of Brass, in a fair and comely shape,” etc., as hath been shown in the foregoing conjurations."

"I conjure and constrain thee, O thou Spirit N., by all the names aforesaid; and in addition by these seven great names wherewith Solomon the Wise bound thee and thy companions in a Vessel of Brass, Adonai, Prerai, Tetragrammaton, Anaphaxeton, Inessenfatall, Pathatumon, and Itemon; that thou appearest here before this Circle to fulfil my will in all things that seem good unto me." - the Constraint

"These be the seaventy two Mighty kings or Princes w^ch their Legions, of whome wear the Cheefest, & it is supposed it was for their pride, for Salomon never declared why he thus bound them; & when he hadd bound them up & sealed y^e vesel, he by y^e devine power cast Them all into a deep lake or hole in Babilon, & the Babilononians woundering to ese such a thing there, they went wholy into y^e lake to brake y^e vesel open suspecting to find a great Treasure; but when they hadd broken it open out flew all y^e cheefe spirits Immediately, and their Legions followed them, and they were restored again to their former places; But only Belial who entered Into a certaine Image, and there gave answares to those whome did offer sacrifice unto him as y^e Babilonians did; for they offered sacrafices, & worshiped that Image as a God &c."

The Secret Seal of Solomon

"wherewith he did bind and seal up the aforesaid Spirits with their legions in the Vessel of Brass.
Also by this seal King Solomon did command all the aforesaid Spirits into the Vessel of Brass, and did seal it up with the same seal. He by it gained the love of all manner of persons, and overcame in battle, for neither weapons, nor fire, nor water could hurt him. And this privy seal was made to cover the vessel at the top withal, etc."

The Other Magical Requisites

"The other magical requisites are: a sceptre, a sword, a mitre, a cap, a long white robe of linen, and other garments for the purpose; also a girdle of lion’s skin three inches broad, with all the names written about it which be round the outmost part of the Magic Circle. Also perfumes, and a chafingdish of charcoal kindled to put the fumes on, to smoke or perfume the place appointed for action; also anointing oil to anoint thy temples and thine eyes with; and fair water to wash thyself in. And in so doing, thou shalt say as David said:

The Adoration at the Bath.

“Thou shalt purge me with hyssop, O Lord! and I shall be clean: Thou shalt wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.”
And at the putting on of thy garments thou shalt say:

The Adoration at the induing of the Vestments.

“By the figurative mystery of these holy vestures (or of this holy vestment) I will clothe me with the armour of salvation in the strength of the Most High, ANCAR; AMACOR; AMIDES; THEODONIAS; ANITOR; that my desired end may be effected through Thy strength, O ADONAI! unto Whom the praise and glory will for ever and ever belong! Amen!”

After thou hast so done, make prayers unto God according unto thy work, as Solomon hath commanded."
