The Fourth Pentacle of Saturn
This Pentacle serveth principally for executing all the experiments and operations of ruin, destruction, and death. And when it is made in full perfection, it serveth also for those Spirits which bring news, when thou invokest them from the side of the South.
The Key of Solomon is the best known of the Renaissance grimoires, surviving in dozens of manuscripts in Latin, French, Italian and Hebrew. Mathers made his 1889 edition from seven manuscripts in the British Museum, and it is his plates that every later reproduction of these pentacles descends from.
The Key of Solomon the King (Clavicula Salomonis), translated and edited by S. Liddell MacGregor Mathers (London: George Redway, 1889). The text and the pentacles are in the public domain.
The pentacle is traced from the plate in the De Laurence edition of 1914 (Chicago: De Laurence, Scott & Co.), which reprints Mathers' plates at a larger size, and checked line for line against the 1889 printing.
Mathers' note: The Hebrew words around the sides of the triangle are from Deut. vi. 4:—‘ Hear, O Israel, IHVH ALHINV is IHVH ACuD.” The surrounding versicle is from Psalm cix. 18:—‘ As he clothed himself with cursing like as with a garment, so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.” In the centre of the Pentacle is the mystic letter Yod.
