One gives in the chapter the explanation of the spirits which is very necessary and worthy of being known for the understanding of this work the spirits that are powerful and exalted that serve only to their confederates in unity by the pact by means of certain characters described at the will of Singanbuth . or of his secretary Rabidinadar of which one will give you the understanding in the key and one will tell you hereafter in what manner we must make the pact with the spirits you will know them with difficulty for it is a thing a little obscure and difficult which would be too clear if it were not explained by someone inasmuch as this must not be explained except by the command of Rabidinadar . If not after having offered fine incense and having sprinkled it with our blood or that of a male kid with an invocation to the oriental spirits in his book and so that this may not be vulgar I did not wish to explain it .
