Ancient Manuscript

The ancient manuscript in this novel can be found in the archives of the British Museum. The translation to this manuscript has been done several times. The translated version I am using is by Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers (yes one person) who used various translations by Sloane, Harleian, King and Lansdowne and an unknown author who daringly translated ancient Hebrew right into Latin which is quite a feat.
