INVOCATION EMPLOYED TOWARDS
THE CONJURATION OF COMPASSION
WITH the anger of anguish and the wrath of the stifled, I pour forth my voices,
wrapped in rolling thunder, that you may hear!
Oh great lurkers in the darkness, oh guardians of the way, oh minions of the might of
Thoth! Move and appear! Present yourselves to us in your benign power, in behalf of
one who believes and is stricken with torment.
Isolate him (her) in the bulwark of your protection, for he (she) is undeserving of
anguish and desires it not.
Let that which bears against him (her) be rendered powerless and devoid of substance.
Succor him (her) through fire and water, earth and air, to regain what he (she) has lost.
Strengthen with fire the marrow of our friend and companion, our comrade of the Left-Hand
Path.
Through the power of Satan let the earth and its pleasures re-enter his (her) being.
Allow his (her) vital saltes to flow unhampered, that he (she) may savor the carnal nectars of
his (her) future desires.
Strike dumb his (her) adversary, formed or formless, that he (she) may emerge joyful and
strong from that which afflicts him (her).
Allow no misfortune to allay his (her) path, for he (she) is of us, and therefore to be cherished.
Restore him (her) to power, to joy, to unending dominion over the reverses that have beset
him (her).
Build around and within him (her) the exultant radiance that will herald his (her) emergence
from the stagnant morass which engulfs him (her).
This we command, in the name of Satan, whose mercies flourish and whose sustenance will
prevail!
As Satan reigns so shall his (her) own whose name is as this sound: (name) is the vessel
whose flesh is as the earth; life everlasting, world without end!
Shemhamforash! Hail Satan!
