§ 23 By the Sentence of the Lord of Lords, let such a one, the Son of such a one, ([Greek or Hebrew]) be in anathema, or be accursed in each house of Judgement, that above, and that below, (that is, by God and his Church) in the curse of the holy Ones on high; In the curse of the Seraphims and Ophannim, (the Wheels or Cherubims in Ezekiel's Vision) In the curse of the whole Church from the greatest to the least; Let there be upon him strokes great and abiding; Diseases great and horrible: Let his house be an habitation of Dragons, ([Greek or Hebrew]) or Serpents. Let his Star, or Planet, be dark in the Clouds; Let him be exposed to Indignation, anger and wrath; And let his dead Body be cast to Wild Beasts and Serpents; Let his Enemies and Adversaries rejoice over him: And let his Silver and Gold be given to others: And let all his Children be cast at the doors of his Adversaries: And let Posterity be astonished at his day: Let him be accursed out of the mouth of Addiriron, and Athariel; from the mouth of Sandalphon, and Hadraniel; from the mouth of Ansisiel, and Pathiel; from the mouth of Seraphiel, and Sagansael; from the mouth of Michael, and Gabriel; from the mouth of Raphiel, and Mesharethiel; Let him be accursed from the mouth of Zazabib, and from the mouth of Havabib, who is the great God; and from the mouth of the seventy names of the great King; and from the mouth of Tzorlak the great Chancellor (these names partly significant, and partly insignificant, coined to strike a terror into the minds of weak and distempered Persons, they invent and apply at their pleasure to Angels, good and bad; not unlike the monstrous names which the Gnostics gave to the Aeons who borrowed many things from the Tradition of the Jews, and returned them again unto them with an improvement, but they proceed) Let him be swallowed up as Corah and his Company; and let his soul depart with fear and terror: Let the rebuke of the Lord ⟨p. 293⟩slay him, and let him be strangled like Ahithophel: Let his leprosy be as the leprosy of Gehazi; neither let there be any restoration of his ruin; Let not his burial be in the burials of Israel; Let his Wife be given to strangers; and let others humble her in his death. Under this curse, let such a one the Son of such a one be, with his whole Inheritance. But unto me, and all Israel, let God extend his peace and blessing. Amen.
