Le texte de Lenain

37°. Aniel .אׄנואלּ Son attribut (Dieu des vertus). Il correspond au saint nom de Dieu Abda, d'après les anciens Philosophes. Son rayon commence depuis le 181°. degré de la sphère jusqu'au 185°., inclusivement, correspondant à la 19°. décade et au génie nommé Souchoë, sous l'influence de la Lune. Il préside les jours suivants : 25 avril, 6 juillet, 16 septembre, 27 novembre, 7 février. L'invocation se fait depuis midi jusqu'à midi 20 minutes; on prononce les noms divins et le 8°. verset du psaume 79. (Deus ad virtutem converte nos : et ostende faciem tuam et salvi erimus.) Il sert pour avoir la victoire et pour faire lever le siège d'une ville. Ce génie domine sur les sciences et les arts; il révèle les secrets de la nature, et inspire les sages philosophes dans leurs méditations. La personne qui est née sous cette influence acquerra de la célébrité par ses talents et ses lumières, et elle sera distinguée parmi les savants. Le génie contraire domine sur les esprits pervers; il influe sur les charlatans et sur tous ceux qui excellent dans l'art de tromper les hommes.
