Solomonic Magic & the Grimoires

A Book of the Offices of Spirits

by John Porter · Frederick Hockley (transcriber); Colin D. Campbell (ed.)

An edition of a sixteenth-century English spirit catalogue attributed to John Porter, as transcribed by the Victorian occultist Frederick Hockley. It describes the kings and spirits of the four quarters and many subordinate spirits, closely related to the Goetia and the Book of Oberon, and includes material on plants and charms. Campbell's introduction relates it to the Liber Officiorum Spirituum family of texts. A useful source for the prehistory of the Goetia.
