Blurb:

This contains two rituals, transcribed from Bennett’s magical/esoteric notebooks, both written in the late 1890s, when he was a member of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. The first ritual is incomplete and was composed to create a Talisman of Jupiter, which would allow Bennett to obtain higher knowledge and wisdom. The second is part of a ritual to consecrate a talisman of protection for a fellow Golden Dawn member, Frater Finem Respice (Frater F.R.), or Dr Robert William Felkin (1853–1926). Felkin requested Bennett to create a talisman for him so that he could sleep and not be awakened by night terrors.
