Grimoire of Armadel
The Grimoire of Armadel (original title: Liber Armadel seu totius cabalae perfectissima brevissima et infallabilis scientia tam speculativa quam practiqua) is a minor 17th-century French Christian grimoire kept in the Bibliothèque de l'Arsenal. It was translated into English by S.L. MacGregor Mathers,[1] and first published in 1980 after his death.[2]
It should not be confused with British Library manuscript Lans. 1202 as "The Key of King Solomon by Armadel; Book 4: The Spirits which govern under the Orders of the sovereign Creator" (Clavicules du Roi Salomon, Par Armadel. Livre Quatrieme. Des Esprits qui gouvernent sous les Ordres du Souverain Createur).
