"The Evil Christmas"
Note: Thus evil and dark Christmas-y poem is not by me but by that of Matthew Tinsley [who I have not heard of before, surprisingly]. Anyway, enjoy it - if you so dare.
Twas the night before Christmas
And all through the house
Not a creature was stirring
Not even the mouse.
For they're all on their beds
All covered in gore
For once again Christmas
Was evil once more!
An axe to the head
And a knife to the throat
A body in the lake
Inside of a boat.
The reindeer on the roof
All covered in blood
And elves all around
Face down in the mud
The tree set ablaze
The presents burned crisp
All the doings
Of evil St. Nick
The stockings were filled
With eyes, guts, and lungs
For this one Christmas
Has just now begun.
The children asleep
With sugarplum dreams
Not hearing a word
Of their parents screams.
'Ho ho ho! ' Said St. Nick
As the ax cleanly sailed
Into the children
As they yelled.
'You've been bad this year.
You get what you deserve.
For you've pushed my patience
You've got on my last nerves! '
'Why Santa, Wh-'
Was all Bobby said
Before Santa brought
His ax to his head.
He poured gasoline
Through the house with a glare
And set it ablaze
With a glimmering flare.
'I've said it before
And I'll say it no more
Merry Christmas to all
And to all more gore.
HO HO HO HO!!

The Raven
Note: This poem, entitled "The Raven" is not by me but by the famous poet/writer Edgar Allen Poe. With that said, please enjoy one of the most dark but also satisfying poems that was ever penned (in my honest opinion) by a person.
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
`'Tis some visitor,' I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door -
Only this, and nothing more.'
Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December,
And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.
Eagerly I wished the morrow; - vainly I had sought to borrow
From my books surcease of sorrow - sorrow for the lost Lenore -
For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels named Lenore -
Nameless here for evermore.
And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain
Thrilled me - filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before;
So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating
`'Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door -
Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door; -
This it is, and nothing more,'
Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer,
`Sir,' said I, `or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore;
But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping,
And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door,
That I scarce was sure I heard you' - here I opened wide the door; -
Darkness there, and nothing more.
Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before;
But the silence was unbroken, and the darkness gave no token,
And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, `Lenore!'
This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, `Lenore!'
Merely this and nothing more.
Back into the chamber turning, all my soul within me burning,
Soon again I heard a tapping somewhat louder than before.
`Surely,' said I, `surely that is something at my window lattice;
Let me see then, what thereat is, and this mystery explore -
Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore; -
'Tis the wind and nothing more!'
Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter,
In there stepped a stately raven of the saintly days of yore.
Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he;
But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door -
Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door -
Perched, and sat, and nothing more.
Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore,
`Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,' I said, `art sure no craven.
Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the nightly shore -
Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
Much I marvelled this ungainly fowl to hear discourse so plainly,
Though its answer little meaning - little relevancy bore;
For we cannot help agreeing that no living human being
Ever yet was blessed with seeing bird above his chamber door -
Bird or beast above the sculptured bust above his chamber door,
With such name as `Nevermore.'
But the raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only,
That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.
Nothing further then he uttered - not a feather then he fluttered -
Till I scarcely more than muttered `Other friends have flown before -
On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before.'
Then the bird said, `Nevermore.'
Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken,
`Doubtless,' said I, `what it utters is its only stock and store,
Caught from some unhappy master whom unmerciful disaster
Followed fast and followed faster till his songs one burden bore -
Till the dirges of his hope that melancholy burden bore
Of "Never-nevermore."'
But the raven still beguiling all my sad soul into smiling,
Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird and bust and door;
Then, upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking
Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore -
What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt, and ominous bird of yore
Meant in croaking `Nevermore.'
This I sat engaged in guessing, but no syllable expressing
To the fowl whose fiery eyes now burned into my bosom's core;
This and more I sat divining, with my head at ease reclining
On the cushion's velvet lining that the lamp-light gloated o'er,
But whose velvet violet lining with the lamp-light gloating o'er,
She shall press, ah, nevermore!
Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer
Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor.
`Wretch,' I cried, `thy God hath lent thee - by these angels he has sent thee
Respite - respite and nepenthe from thy memories of Lenore!
Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe, and forget this lost Lenore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
`Prophet!' said I, `thing of evil! - prophet still, if bird or devil! -
Whether tempter sent, or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore,
Desolate yet all undaunted, on this desert land enchanted -
On this home by horror haunted - tell me truly, I implore -
Is there - is there balm in Gilead? - tell me - tell me, I implore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
`Prophet!' said I, `thing of evil! - prophet still, if bird or devil!
By that Heaven that bends above us - by that God we both adore -
Tell this soul with sorrow laden if, within the distant Aidenn,
It shall clasp a sainted maiden whom the angels named Lenore -
Clasp a rare and radiant maiden, whom the angels named Lenore?'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
`Be that word our sign of parting, bird or fiend!' I shrieked upstarting -
`Get thee back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore!
Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken!
Leave my loneliness unbroken! - quit the bust above my door!
Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted - nevermore!
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.

Demonology
Note: What is written below is all of what concerns Demons - be it the classification of them or even as they appear within religion, theology, mythology, folklore and much else besides. Please keep in mind, though, that what is seen below is not by me but by what I have come across while browsing the web. With that said, please enjoy. P.S. My apologies for it being so long, but I wished to include the more interesting facts in regards to Demons and the like.
Classification of Demons -
There have been various demonologies [or classifications of demons] in Christian demonology and classical occultism and/or Renaissance magic. Classification systems are based on the nature of the Demon, the sin with which they tempt people, the month in which their power was strongest, the saints that were their adversaries or other characteristics.
Classification by Domain -
The Testament of Solomon:
The Testament of Solomon is an Old Testament pseudepigraphical work, purportedly written by King Solomon, in which Solomon mostly describes particular demons whom he enslaved to help build the temple, the questions he put to them about their deeds and how they could be thwarted, and their answers, which provide a kind of self-help manual against demonic activity.The date is very dubious, though is considered the oldest work surviving particularly concerned with individual demons.
Psellus` Classification of Demons:
This is a classification of demons prepared by Michael Psellus in the 11th century and was an inspiration for the one Francesco Maria Guazzo prepared later. They are divided into Empyreal, Aerial, Subterranean, Lucifugi, Aqueous, Terrene.
Spina`s Classification of Demons:
Alfonso de Spina, in 1467, prepared a classification of demons based on several criteria:
-Demons of fate
-Goblins
-Incubi and succubi
-Wandering groups or armies of demons
-Familiars
-Drudes
-Cambions and other demons that are born from the union of a demon with a human being.
-Liar and mischievous demons
-Demons that attack the saints
-Demons that try to induce old women to attend Witches` Sabbaths
This classification is somewhat capricious and it is difficult to find a criterion for it. It seems that Spina was inspired by several legends and stories. The drudes belong to German folklore. Familiars, goblins, and other mischievous demons belong to the folklore of most European countries.
The belief in incubi and succubae (and their ability to procreate) seem to have inspired the seventh category, but it could also have been inspired in the Talmudic legend of demons having sexual intercourse with mortal women.
The visions of tempting demons that some early (and not too early) saints had, perhaps inspired the ninth category (e.g. the visions of Anthony the Great).
The idea of old women attending Sabbaths was common during the European Middle Age and Renaissance, and Spina mentioned it before the Malleus Maleficarum.
Binsfield`s Classification of Demons:
Peter Binsfeld prepared a classification of demons in 1589. His demon classification was based on the seven deadly sins, establishing that each one of the mentioned Seven princes of Hell tempted people by means of one of those sins.
-Lucifer: pride
-Mammon: greed
-Asmodeus: lust
-Leviathan: envy
-Beelzebub: gluttony
-Satan: wrath
-Belphegor: sloth
Guazzo`s Classification of Demons:
Francesco Maria Guazzo prepared this classification of demons based on a previous work by Michael Psellus. It was published in his book Compendium Maleficarum in 1608.
-Demons of the superior layers of the air, which never establish a relationship with people.
-Demons of the inferior layers of the air, which are responsible for storms.
-Demons of Earth, which dwell in fields, caves and forests.
-Demons of water, which are female demons, and destroy aquatic animals.
-Demons of the underground part of the Earth, responsible of keeping hidden treasures, causing earthquakes, and causing the crumbling of houses.
-Demons of the night, which are black and evil. These demons avoid daylight.
Michaelis` Classification of Demons:
In 1613 Sebastien Michaelis wrote a book, Admirable History, which included a classification of demons as it was told to him by the demon Berith when he was exorcising a nun, according to the author. This classification is based on the Pseudo-Dionysian hierarchies, according to the sins the devil tempts one to commit, and includes the demons` adversaries (who suffered that temptation without falling).
Note that many demons` names are exclusively French or unknown in other catalogs. St. John the Baptist and St. John the Evangelist are the two St. Johns to whom Michaelis refers. The other saints are cited only by their name without making clear, i.e., which Francis is (of Assisi?).
First Hierarchy:
The first hierarchy includes angels that were or are Seraphim, Cherubim and Thrones.
-Beelzebub was a prince of the Seraphim, just below Lucifer. Beelzebub, along with Lucifer and Leviathan, were the first three angels to fall. He tempts men with pride and is opposed by St. Francis of Assisi.
-Leviathan was also a prince of the Seraphim who tempts people to give into heresy, and is opposed by Saint Peter.
-Asmodeus was also a prince of the Seraphim and reportedly continues to be one, burning with desire to tempt men into wantonness. He is opposed by St. John the Baptist.
-Berith was a prince of the Cherubim. He tempts men to commit homicide, and to be quarrelsome, contentious, and blasphemous. He is opposed by St. Barnabas.
-Astaroth was a prince of Thrones, who tempts men to be lazy and is opposed by St. Bartholomew.
-Verrine was also prince of Thrones, just below Astaroth. He tempts men with impatience and is opposed by St. Dominic.
-Gressil was the third prince of Thrones, who tempts men with impurity and is opposed by St. Bernard.
-Sonneillon was the fourth prince of Thrones, who tempts men to hate and is opposed by St. Stephen.
Second Hierarchy:
The second hierarchy includes Powers, Dominions, and Virtues.
-Carreau was a prince of Powers. He tempts men with hardness of heart and is opposed by St.s Vincent and Vincent Ferrer
-Carnivean was also a prince of Powers. He tempts men to obscenity and shamelessness, and is opposed by John the Evangelist.
-Oeillet was a prince of Dominions. He tempts men to break the vow of poverty and is opposed by St. Martin.
-Rosier was the second in the order of Dominions. He tempts men against sexual purity and is opposed by St. Basil.
-Belias was the prince of Virtues. He tempts men with arrogance and women to be vain, raise their children as wantons, and gossip during mass. He is opposed by St. Francis de Paul.
Third Hierarchy:
The third hierarchy includes Principalities, Archangels, and Angels.
-Olivier was the prince of the Archangels. He tempts men with cruelty and mercilessness toward the poor and is opposed by St. Lawrence.
-Iuvart was prince of Angels. At the time of Michaelis`s writing, Iuvart was believed to be in the body of a Sister Madeleine.
Barrett`s Classification of Demons:
Francis Barrett, in his book The Magus (1801), offered this classification of demons, making them princes of some evil attitude, person or thing:
-Beelzebub: idolators
-Pythius: liars and liar spirits
-Belial: vessels of iniquity and inventors of evil things
-Asmodeus: vile revenges
-Satan: witches and warlocks
-Merihem: pestilences and spirits that cause pestilences
-Abaddon: powers of war and devastation
-Astaroth: inquisitors and accusers
-Mammon: tempters and ensnarers
Classification by Month -
During the 16th century, it was believed that each demon had more strength to accomplish his mission during a special month of the year. In this way, he and his assistants` powers would work better during that month.
-Belial in January
-Leviathan in February
-Satan in March
-Belphegor in April
-Lucifer in May
-Berith in June
-Beelzebub in July
-Astaroth in August
-Thammuz in September
-Baal in October
-Asmodai in November
-Moloch in December
The classification of demons by month seems to have astrological implications more than religious ones.
Classification by Office -
Le Dragon Rouge (or Grand Grimoire):
Like many works of mystical nature, Le Dragon Rouge (or the Red Dragon) claims to come from Solomon and his priests and is said to be published in 1517 by Alibeck the Egyptian. However, it was most likely written in France in the 18th century.
The grimoire details the different hosts of hell and their powers, describing how to enter a pact with them to attain the magicians` goals. The demons of hell are classified by three different tiers from Generals to Officers.
Pseudomonarchia Daemonum:
Pseudomonarchia Daemonum, by Johann Weyer, is a grimoire that contains a list of demons and the appropriate hours and rituals to conjure them in the name of God, Jesus and the Holy Ghost (simpler than those cited by The Lesser Key of Solomon below).
This book was written around 1583, and lists sixty-eight demons. The demons Vassago, Seir, Dantalion and Andromalius are not listed in this book. Pseudomonarchia Daemonum does not attribute seals to the demons.
The Lesser Key of Solomon:
The Lesser Key of Solomon or Lemegeton Clavicula Salomonis is an anonymous 17th century grimoire, and one of the most popular books of demonology. The Lesser Key of Solomon contains detailed des-criptions of spirits and the conjurations needed to invoke and oblige them to do the will of the conjurer (referred to as the "exorcist"). It details the protective signs and rituals to be performed, the actions necessary to prevent the spirits from gaining control, the preparations prior to the invocations, and instructions on how to make the necessary instruments for the execution of these rituals.
The author of The Lesser Key of Solomon copied Pseudomonarchia Daemonum almost completely, but added demons` des-criptions, their seals and details.
The Ars Goetia:
Ars Goetia is the title of the first section of The Lesser Key of Solomon, containing des-criptions of the seventy-two demons that King Solomon is said to have evoked and confined in a bronze vessel sealed by magic symbols, and that he obliged to work for him.
The Ars Goetia assigns a rank and a title of nobility to each member of the infernal hierarchy, and gives the demons "signs they have to pay allegiance to", or seals.
Dictionnaire Infernal:
The Dictionnaire Infernal (English: Infernal Dictionary) is a book on demonology, organised in hellish hierarchies. It was written by Jacques Auguste Simon Collin de Plancy and first published in 1818. There were several editions of the book, but perhaps the most famous is the edition of 1863, in which sixty-nine illustrations were added to the book. These illustrations are drawings which depict the des-criptions of the appearance of a number of demons. Many of these images were later used in S. L. MacGregor Mathers`s edition of The Lesser Key of Solomon though some of the images were removed.
The book was first published in 1818 and then divided into two volumes, with six reprints and many changes between 1818 and 1863. This book attempts to provide an account of all the knowledge concerning superstitions and demonology.

Classification of Demons -
There have been various demonologies [or classifications of demons] in Christian demonology and classical occultism and/or Renaissance magic. Classification systems are based on the nature of the Demon, the sin with which they tempt people, the month in which their power was strongest, the saints that were their adversaries or other characteristics.
Classification by Domain -
The Testament of Solomon:
The Testament of Solomon is an Old Testament pseudepigraphical work, purportedly written by King Solomon, in which Solomon mostly describes particular demons whom he enslaved to help build the temple, the questions he put to them about their deeds and how they could be thwarted, and their answers, which provide a kind of self-help manual against demonic activity.The date is very dubious, though is considered the oldest work surviving particularly concerned with individual demons.
Psellus` Classification of Demons:
This is a classification of demons prepared by Michael Psellus in the 11th century and was an inspiration for the one Francesco Maria Guazzo prepared later. They are divided into Empyreal, Aerial, Subterranean, Lucifugi, Aqueous, Terrene.
Spina`s Classification of Demons:
Alfonso de Spina, in 1467, prepared a classification of demons based on several criteria:
-Demons of fate
-Goblins
-Incubi and succubi
-Wandering groups or armies of demons
-Familiars
-Drudes
-Cambions and other demons that are born from the union of a demon with a human being.
-Liar and mischievous demons
-Demons that attack the saints
-Demons that try to induce old women to attend Witches` Sabbaths
This classification is somewhat capricious and it is difficult to find a criterion for it. It seems that Spina was inspired by several legends and stories. The drudes belong to German folklore. Familiars, goblins, and other mischievous demons belong to the folklore of most European countries.
The belief in incubi and succubae (and their ability to procreate) seem to have inspired the seventh category, but it could also have been inspired in the Talmudic legend of demons having sexual intercourse with mortal women.
The visions of tempting demons that some early (and not too early) saints had, perhaps inspired the ninth category (e.g. the visions of Anthony the Great).
The idea of old women attending Sabbaths was common during the European Middle Age and Renaissance, and Spina mentioned it before the Malleus Maleficarum.
Binsfield`s Classification of Demons:
Peter Binsfeld prepared a classification of demons in 1589. His demon classification was based on the seven deadly sins, establishing that each one of the mentioned Seven princes of Hell tempted people by means of one of those sins.
-Lucifer: pride
-Mammon: greed
-Asmodeus: lust
-Leviathan: envy
-Beelzebub: gluttony
-Satan: wrath
-Belphegor: sloth
Guazzo`s Classification of Demons:
Francesco Maria Guazzo prepared this classification of demons based on a previous work by Michael Psellus. It was published in his book Compendium Maleficarum in 1608.
-Demons of the superior layers of the air, which never establish a relationship with people.
-Demons of the inferior layers of the air, which are responsible for storms.
-Demons of Earth, which dwell in fields, caves and forests.
-Demons of water, which are female demons, and destroy aquatic animals.
-Demons of the underground part of the Earth, responsible of keeping hidden treasures, causing earthquakes, and causing the crumbling of houses.
-Demons of the night, which are black and evil. These demons avoid daylight.
Michaelis` Classification of Demons:
In 1613 Sebastien Michaelis wrote a book, Admirable History, which included a classification of demons as it was told to him by the demon Berith when he was exorcising a nun, according to the author. This classification is based on the Pseudo-Dionysian hierarchies, according to the sins the devil tempts one to commit, and includes the demons` adversaries (who suffered that temptation without falling).
Note that many demons` names are exclusively French or unknown in other catalogs. St. John the Baptist and St. John the Evangelist are the two St. Johns to whom Michaelis refers. The other saints are cited only by their name without making clear, i.e., which Francis is (of Assisi?).
First Hierarchy:
The first hierarchy includes angels that were or are Seraphim, Cherubim and Thrones.
-Beelzebub was a prince of the Seraphim, just below Lucifer. Beelzebub, along with Lucifer and Leviathan, were the first three angels to fall. He tempts men with pride and is opposed by St. Francis of Assisi.
-Leviathan was also a prince of the Seraphim who tempts people to give into heresy, and is opposed by Saint Peter.
-Asmodeus was also a prince of the Seraphim and reportedly continues to be one, burning with desire to tempt men into wantonness. He is opposed by St. John the Baptist.
-Berith was a prince of the Cherubim. He tempts men to commit homicide, and to be quarrelsome, contentious, and blasphemous. He is opposed by St. Barnabas.
-Astaroth was a prince of Thrones, who tempts men to be lazy and is opposed by St. Bartholomew.
-Verrine was also prince of Thrones, just below Astaroth. He tempts men with impatience and is opposed by St. Dominic.
-Gressil was the third prince of Thrones, who tempts men with impurity and is opposed by St. Bernard.
-Sonneillon was the fourth prince of Thrones, who tempts men to hate and is opposed by St. Stephen.
Second Hierarchy:
The second hierarchy includes Powers, Dominions, and Virtues.
-Carreau was a prince of Powers. He tempts men with hardness of heart and is opposed by St.s Vincent and Vincent Ferrer
-Carnivean was also a prince of Powers. He tempts men to obscenity and shamelessness, and is opposed by John the Evangelist.
-Oeillet was a prince of Dominions. He tempts men to break the vow of poverty and is opposed by St. Martin.
-Rosier was the second in the order of Dominions. He tempts men against sexual purity and is opposed by St. Basil.
-Belias was the prince of Virtues. He tempts men with arrogance and women to be vain, raise their children as wantons, and gossip during mass. He is opposed by St. Francis de Paul.
Third Hierarchy:
The third hierarchy includes Principalities, Archangels, and Angels.
-Olivier was the prince of the Archangels. He tempts men with cruelty and mercilessness toward the poor and is opposed by St. Lawrence.
-Iuvart was prince of Angels. At the time of Michaelis`s writing, Iuvart was believed to be in the body of a Sister Madeleine.
Barrett`s Classification of Demons:
Francis Barrett, in his book The Magus (1801), offered this classification of demons, making them princes of some evil attitude, person or thing:
-Beelzebub: idolators
-Pythius: liars and liar spirits
-Belial: vessels of iniquity and inventors of evil things
-Asmodeus: vile revenges
-Satan: witches and warlocks
-Merihem: pestilences and spirits that cause pestilences
-Abaddon: powers of war and devastation
-Astaroth: inquisitors and accusers
-Mammon: tempters and ensnarers
Classification by Month -
During the 16th century, it was believed that each demon had more strength to accomplish his mission during a special month of the year. In this way, he and his assistants` powers would work better during that month.
-Belial in January
-Leviathan in February
-Satan in March
-Belphegor in April
-Lucifer in May
-Berith in June
-Beelzebub in July
-Astaroth in August
-Thammuz in September
-Baal in October
-Asmodai in November
-Moloch in December
The classification of demons by month seems to have astrological implications more than religious ones.
Classification by Office -
Le Dragon Rouge (or Grand Grimoire):
Like many works of mystical nature, Le Dragon Rouge (or the Red Dragon) claims to come from Solomon and his priests and is said to be published in 1517 by Alibeck the Egyptian. However, it was most likely written in France in the 18th century.
The grimoire details the different hosts of hell and their powers, describing how to enter a pact with them to attain the magicians` goals. The demons of hell are classified by three different tiers from Generals to Officers.
Pseudomonarchia Daemonum:
Pseudomonarchia Daemonum, by Johann Weyer, is a grimoire that contains a list of demons and the appropriate hours and rituals to conjure them in the name of God, Jesus and the Holy Ghost (simpler than those cited by The Lesser Key of Solomon below).
This book was written around 1583, and lists sixty-eight demons. The demons Vassago, Seir, Dantalion and Andromalius are not listed in this book. Pseudomonarchia Daemonum does not attribute seals to the demons.
The Lesser Key of Solomon:
The Lesser Key of Solomon or Lemegeton Clavicula Salomonis is an anonymous 17th century grimoire, and one of the most popular books of demonology. The Lesser Key of Solomon contains detailed des-criptions of spirits and the conjurations needed to invoke and oblige them to do the will of the conjurer (referred to as the "exorcist"). It details the protective signs and rituals to be performed, the actions necessary to prevent the spirits from gaining control, the preparations prior to the invocations, and instructions on how to make the necessary instruments for the execution of these rituals.

The Ars Goetia assigns a rank and a title of nobility to each member of the infernal hierarchy, and gives the demons "signs they have to pay allegiance to", or seals.

"Come Little Children..."
An almost chilling laugh echoed throughout the
entirety of the clearing just North of the Dead City as the Demon
Priestess, known as Aislinn, prepared herself to sing the most haunting;
the most enchanting; the most spell-binding; the most mesmerizing song
there ever was...
Glancing down at Celeste, her familiar in the form of a black cat with piercing purple eyes, a cruel smile curled Aislinn`s lips and her eyes of bright crimson-red flared brighter than before as she began to weave her magic - taking on the color of purple - about herself by throwing her arms out on either side of her and beginning to hum; her golden-blonde locks of hair beginning to swirl and whip about her fair as well as seductive features as she did so.
Once her magic was crackling all along her skin like electricity, she tilted her head back and closed her eyes; her mouth opening to allow the words to flow out in fluidity; words that echoed throughout the clearing and into that of the streets of the City and Valley beyond; words of...

"Come little children,
I`ll take thee away,
Into a Land of Enchantment.
Come little children,
The time`s come to play,
Here in my Garden of Shadows.
Follow sweet children,
I`ll show thee the way,
Through all the pain and the sorrows.
Weep not poor children,
For life is this way,
Murdering beauty and passions.
Hush now dear children,
It must be this way,
Too weary of life and deceptions.
Rest now my children,
For soon we`ll away,
Into the calm and the quiet.
Come little children,
I`ll take thee away,
Into a Land of Enchantment.
Come little children,
The time`s come to play, Here in my Garden of Shadows."
I`ll take thee away,

The Charge of the Goddess...
"I am the Great Mother, worshipped by all and existent prior to their consciousness.
I am the primal female force, boundless and eternal.
I am the chaste Goddess of the moon, the Lady of all magic.
The winds and moving leaves sing my name. I wear the crescent Moon upon my brow and my feet rest among the starry heavens.
I am mysteries yet unsolved, a path newly set upon. I am a field untouched by the plow.
Rejoice in me and know the fullness of youth. I am the blessed Mother, the gracious Lady of the harvest.
I am clothed with the deep, cool wonder of the Earth and the gold of the fields heavy with grain.
By me the tides of the Earth are ruled; all things come to fuition according to my season I am refuge and healing.
I am the life-giving Mother, wondrously fertile.
Worship me as the Crone, Tender of the unbroken cycle of death and rebirth.
I am the wheel, the shadow of the Moon. I rule the tides of women and men and give release and renewal to weary souls. Though the darkness of death is my domain, the joy of birth is my gift.
I am the Goddess of the Moon, the Earth, the Seas. My names and strengths are manifold.
I pour forth magick and power, peace and wisdom. I am the eternal Maiden, Mother of all, and Crone of darkness, and I send you blessings of limitless love."
