The Warding-Off of
Evil
To ward off evil that has advanced unwarranted, be it the work
of others or devils, one must begin with a thorough bathing and
cleansing of the body after the midnight, but before the rising
of the morning's sun.
Great care should be taken that
this be done lest the spell fail.
At the dawn, having properly
cleansed one's body, and whilst without having dressed, one
need stand in the center of a well-lit room and face the
south.
Repeat the following
invocation, once in each direction, turning from south to west,
then north and finally east:
I call to Baëll, king of
the evil horde
Leader of the six and sixty legions
Call up thine minions and order them down
That none should set against me this day or next
Bade them instead protect
Protect me from the evil
Protect me from those
Those of the evil will
When you have spoken this
invocation in all four directions, going from south to west to
north to east, remain facing to the east and repeat the
following invocation:
Baëll, principal king of
the power of the east
Hear mine words, for I bid thee no visit
Only that this thing be done
Immediately turn to face the
south so that the spell might be cast and sealed.
