This translation of a previously unpublished work by the late Alphonse Louis Constant, or, as he preferred to
call himself, Eliphaz Levi, is published with the consent of its possessor, Mr. Edward Maitland, the eminent
collaborateur of the late Dr. Anna Kingsford, to whom it was given by the Baron Spedalieri, so well known
as the friend, disciple, and literary heir of Eliphaz Levi. The original MSS., which is in the handwriting of
Levi himself, is written upon pages interleaved with the text of a printed copy of a work by Trithemius of
Spanheim, entitled De Septem Secundeis: the edition was published at Cologne, and is dated 1567. This work
