Psalms Deus, judicium tuum Regi da and Laudate Dominum omnes gentes, adding <strong>the</strong><br />
following<br />
CONJURATION<br />
I conjure <strong>the</strong>e, creature <strong>of</strong> parchment, by all <strong>the</strong> names <strong>of</strong> God, that nothing which shall<br />
be written within <strong>the</strong>e may ever be blotted from truth.<br />
Lastly, asperge it and place it in <strong>the</strong> silken cloth, as above.<br />
The Grimorium Verum indulges <strong>the</strong> weak pupil by a fur<strong>the</strong>r simplification, as follows:--If<br />
you are unable to prepare <strong>the</strong> parchment yourself, buy a new one and conjure it; asperge<br />
also and fumigate it three times. The sacrifice, with its delays and unpleasantness, is thus<br />
abrogated, and <strong>the</strong> operator can proceed at once to <strong>the</strong> practical mystery <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Sanctum<br />
Regnum. It would also appear that parchment or vellum proper may be dispensed with in<br />
favour <strong>of</strong>:--(a.) The skin <strong>of</strong> some o<strong>the</strong>r animal, which would, however, involve a like<br />
process; or (b.) <strong>the</strong> caul <strong>of</strong> a new-born child, which would, <strong>of</strong> course, possess <strong>the</strong><br />
requisite virgin character, and was simply consecrated according to <strong>the</strong> following<br />
instructions, as found in True Black Magic. 1<br />
When you have succeeded in obtaining <strong>the</strong> caul <strong>of</strong> a newborn child, perfume <strong>the</strong> same<br />
with sweet odours and sprinkle it, after which say <strong>the</strong> following Psalms: Domine, exaudi<br />
oratiomem meam, and Domine, Deus meus, respice in me, with <strong>the</strong> conjuration hereunto<br />
attached:--BOSMELETIC, JEYSMY, ETH,<br />

HODOMOS, BELUREOS. O Lord, Who didst make all things in wisdom; Who didst<br />
choose Abraham, Thy first believer, and his seed hath multiplied like <strong>the</strong> stars <strong>of</strong> heaven;<br />
Who didst appear unto Moses, Thy servant, surrounded with flaming fire, and didst make<br />
known to him Thy names, which are HEIE, ACER, HEIE 1--that is to say, I am that I am;<br />
Who didst also lead forth Thy people dry-shod over <strong>the</strong> Red Sea; Who unto Moses, Thy<br />
servant, didst give <strong>the</strong> Law <strong>of</strong> Salvation on Mount Sinai; Who unto Solomon didst impart<br />
wisdom above <strong>the</strong> measure <strong>of</strong> men: I humbly adore Thy majesty and beseech Thy mercy,<br />
praying Thee to consecrate this skin by Thy virtue, O Most Holy ADONAY, Whose reign<br />
endureth for ever. Amen.<br />
Asperge <strong>the</strong> caul with <strong>the</strong> blessed water <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Art, place it in <strong>the</strong> silken cloth, and when<br />
working <strong>the</strong> exorcisms, <strong>the</strong> requisitions made to <strong>the</strong> spirits must be written on this skin,<br />
which should be fumigated with stinking odours.<br />
