The Spectre at The Feast





Avaunt! and quit my sight! let the earth hide thee!
Thy bones are marrowless, thy blood is cold;
Thou hast no speculation in those eyes
Which thou dost glare with!












“The Ancients claimed that wars, plagues, fires, earthquakes, and other cataclysms were caused by great armies of Elementals marching in military array against each other and fighting in these elements of Nature. 

Thus Thunder and Lightning were said to be caused by battles between the sylphs and salamanders, while rains and tidal waves were caused by the sylphs and undines. Movement of bodies in the earth, landslides, and internal rumblings were said to be caused by inharmony between the salamanders and gnomes. Generated out of the explosions of gunpowder, the salamanders hover over battlefields. 

As great armies of red flaming creatures, they also feed upon Human Passion, obsessing The Mind of Man and finding expression through the receptive ethers in his body. The four groups — gnomes, undines, salamanders, and sylphs — form the natural inhabitants of the etheric elements. Their labour is carried on through what is called The Humidity Body of both The Earth and The Planetary Logos, and also their corresponding poles in The Body of The Individual. 

In addition, there are several other groups of elementals, some the products of natural phenomena, and others generated by man. Among these may be mentioned the thought and emotion elemental, ghosts, spectres, The Dweller on The Threshold, and larvae. 

The latter group (known also as etheric shells) are the etheric bodies of individuals who, in passing out at death, have gone on to the astral plane. Casting off the etheric body soon after the physical form, they leave it behind in the ethers, where it slowly disintegrates. 

These shells are the basis of the greater percentage of mediumistic manifestations, a fact which can be determined only through an examination of the eyeballs of the medium. They are often used by both elementals and larvae as temporary vehicles of manifestation as they float around in the ethers in process of disintegration. 

Due to the fine structure of these etheric shells, it often takes many years for disintegration to take place. Hence a great host of etheric bodies float like chips of driftwood upon the sea of etheric humidity, discarded by their former owners who have long since passed on to other planes of life.”

The Trve Lawe of free Monarchies: Or, The Reciprock and Mvtvall DvtieBetwixt a free King, and his naturall Subiectes




The Reciprocal and Mutual Duty Betwixt a Free King and His Natural Subjects (original Scots title: The Trve Lawe of free Monarchies: Or, The Reciprock and Mvtvall Dvtie Betwixt a free King, and his naturall Subiectes) is a treatise or essay of political theory by James VI of Scotland (later to be crowned James I of England too).1 

It is believed James VI wrote the tract to set forth his idea of kingship, in contrast to the contractarian views espoused by, among others, George Buchanan (in De Jure Regni apud Scotos, 1579). 

James VI had the work published in 1598. It is considered remarkable for setting out the doctrine of the Divine Right of Kings in Scotland, and latterly England, for the first time. 

James saw the Divine Right of Kings as an extension of the apostolic succession.


The state of monarchy is the supremest thing upon earth, for kings are not only God's lieutenants upon earth and sit upon God's throne, but even by God himself they are called gods. There be three principal [comparisons] that illustrate the state of monarchy: one taken out of the word of God, and the two other out of the grounds of policy and philosophy. In the Scriptures kings are called gods, and so their power after a certain relation compared to the Divine power. Kings are also compared to fathers of families; for a king is truly parens patriae [parent of the country], the politic father of his people. And lastly, kings are compared to the head of this microcosm of the body of man.
