ness”. The existence of the Angel is the justifica¬ 
tion of the device of création. 1 
Line 9. This line must be studied in the light of 
Liber LXV (Equinox XL p. 65). 
Section H, This récapitulation demands the going forth 
together of the Adept and his Angel ato do their 
pleasure on the Earth among the living.” 
Section J. The Beast 666 having devised the présent 
method of using this Ritual, having proved it by 
his own practice to be of infallible puissance when 
properly performed, and now having written it 
down for the World, it shall be an ornament for 
the Adept who adopts it to cry Hail to His name 
at the end of his work. This shall moreover 
encourage him in Magick, to recall that indeed 
there was One who attained by its use to the 
Knowledge and Conversation of His Holy 
Guardian Angel, the which forsook him no more, 
but made Him a Magus, the Word of the Aeon 
of Horus ! 
For know this, that the Name IAF in its most 
secret and mighty sense declareth the Formula of 
the Magick of the BEAST whereby he wrought 
many wonders. And because he doth will that the 
whole world shall attain to this Art, He now 
hideth it herein so that the worthy may win to Elis 
Wisdom. 
Let I and F face ail j 2 yet ward their A from 
attack. The Hermit to himself, the Fool to foes, 
1. But see also the general solution of the Riddle of Existence in the 
Book of the Law and its Comment — Part IV of Book 4. 
2. If we adopt the new orthography VIAOV (Book 4 Part III Chap. 
V.) we must read “The Sun-6-the Son” etc. for “ail”; and elaborate this 
interprétation here given in other ways, accordingly. Thus O (or F) will 
nat be “The Fifteen by function” instead of “Five” etc., and “in act free, 
firm, aspiring, ecstatic”, rather than “gentle” etc. as in the présent text.
