Livre des esperitz top 7 facts
The Livre des Esperitz (or Book of Spirits) is a 15th or 16th century French grimoire that inspired later works including Johann Weyer's Pseudomonarchia Daemonum and the Lesser Key of Solomon. It contains ideas, traditions, and elements of works dating back to at least the 13th century.
Like the Lesser Key of Solomon, the Livre des Esperitz has been attributed to Solomon. The Livre des Esperitz merely lists the hierarchy of hell, and does not include prayers, conjurations, invocations, or spells to summon any being described. It does provide detailed descriptions of each spirit's appearance and function, and lists how many legions of demons serve under each. Many of these descriptions eventually found their way into later works, often unmodified.
The demons listed within it include: Lucifer, Bezlebut, Satan, Orient, Poymon, Equi, Veal, Agarat, Barbas, Bulfas, Amon, Batal, Gemen, Gazon, Artis, Machin, Dicision, Abugor, Vipos, Cerbere, Carmola, Estor, Coap, Deas, Asmoday, Bitur, Beal, Forcas, Furfur, Margotias, Oze, Lucay, Pucel, Jayn, Suralet, Zagon, Dragon, Parcas, Gorsin, Andralfas, Flanos, Brial, Fenix, Distolas
