      I supplicate the powers and forces governing the nature, place and authority of the Sign SHOR,
      by the Majesty of the Divine Name (vibrate) YHHV, with which, in Earth life and language,
      I ascribe the letter (vibrate) VAHV to which is allotted the symbolic tribe of EPHRAIM
   
      and over which is the Angel (vibrate and trace) ARZIEL,
      and the Archangel (vibrate and trace) ASMODEL,
      to bestow, this present day and hour, and confirm their mystic and potent influence upon the VIOLET band of this Astrological Wand,
      which I hereby dedicate to the practice of Magick and Occult Work.
   
      May my grasp upon it strengthen me in the work and attributes of (vibrate) SHOR."
