THE THIRD BOOK.
(THE PROLOGUE.)
He who shall have faithfully observed that which hath been taught unto
him, and shall have with a good will obeyed the Commandments of God, let
him, I say, be certain that this Veritable and Loyal Wisdom shall be accorded
unto him; and also that the Perfidious BELIAL can do no otherwise than
become his slave, together with all his Pestiferous Generation.
However I pray the True God who governeth, ruleth over, and maintaineth
all that He hath created; that thou, 0 Lamech, my son, or whomsoever he
may be unto whom thou shalt have granted this Sacred Opera-tion, mayest
work it out, having always before thee the Fear of God, and in no way use
it for Evil, because God the Eternal hath wished herein to leave us our
free will, but woe unto him who shall abuse His Divine Grace. Yet I say
not but that if an enemy should attempt thy life, that it is permissible
unto thee if necessary to de-stroy him; but in any other case lay not thine
hand unto the sword, but use gentler methods. Be kind and affable unto
every one. One may also serve a friend without harm unto oneself.
David and King Solomon could have destroyed their enemies in an instant,
but they did not so ; in imitation of God Himself who chastiseth not unless
He is out-raged.
If thou shalst perfectly observe these rules, all the following Symbols
and an infinitude of others will be granted unto thee by thy Holy Guardian
Angel ; thou thus living for the Honour and Glory of the True and only
God, for thine own good, and that of thy neighbour.
Let the Fear of God be ever before the eyes and the heart of him who
shall possess this Divine Wisdom and Sacred Magic.

before a quarter of an hour shall have passed you will find and will have
that which you have demanded; but you must clearly understand that with
such kinds of viands you cannot nourish men for more than two days. For
this food although it be appreciable by the eyes, and by the mouth, doth
not long nourish the body, which hath soon hunger again, seeing that this
food gives no strength to the stomach. Know also that none of these viands
can remain visible for more than 24 hours, the which period being passed,
fresh ones will be requisite.

and the unguent, the compresses, and the bandages having been replaced,
put the Symbol upon them and leave it for about a quarter of an hour, then
take it away, and keep it for use upon another occasion. But if it be an
internal malady, you must place the Symbol (the written part downwards)

Chapter are submitted to him; and these two Chapters are classed together
by Abraham the Jew in his special instructions, the one being the exact
reverse of the other.
(c) The Familiar Spirits can to an extent perform the Operations of
this Chapter.
(d) Name aloud the person or persons by whom you wish to be loved,
and move the Symbol under whose class they come. But if it be not for yourself
that you are operating, but for two or more other persons, whether for
love or for hatred, you should still name such persons aloud, and move
the Symbols of the class or classes under which they come. Also, if possible,
it is a good thing to touch them with the Symbol, on the bare skin, if
you can. Under this heading are included all classes of good-will and affection,

be easily seen through by the possessor of the Sacred Magic; while on the

let it (d) Place the Symbol of the Money you require in your purse,
remain there for a short time, then put your right hand into your
purse, and you will there find seven pieces of the class of money you
have wished for. This Operation should not be performed more than three
times in the day. The pieces of money you do not use will disappear, which
is why you should not ask for several kinds of money at the same time.
And if you spend it, both you and those into whose hands it passes will
find it genuine.
In another place Abraham says, that once only in your life you may
ask your Guardian Angel for a large sum of money sufficient to represent
a fortune; and that he himself had done so and obtained his request.

This finishes the list of Symbols set down by Abraham the Jew, the
which I have given in their entirety; but I must of my own initiative warn
any who may endeavour to use these Signs, that unless animated by the purest
and best motives they will find them react terribly against them; and that,
if the preliminary period of Six Months’ preparation advocated by Abra-Melin
be not observed, the Symbols will be practically worthless in their hands;
for, as will be observed, the Names in the Squares for the most part are
simply the statement of the ends desired to be accomplished thereby.
Finally, I will quote the following passage from the “Key of Solomon
the King”
“ACCURSED BE HE WHO TAKETH THE NAME OF GOD IN
VAIN! ACCURSED BE HE WHO USETH THIS KNOWLEDGE UNTO
AN EVIL END. BE HE ACCURSED IN THIS WORLD AND IN THE
WORLD TO COME. AMEN. BE HE ACCURSED IN THE NAME
WHICH HE HATH BLASPHEMED !“
