The Grimoire of Pope Honorius belongs to a family of French books that imitate Catholic liturgy while claiming the authority of Pope Honorius III. Its prayers, masses, conjurations and spirit operations created one of the most controversial intersections between ecclesiastical form and popular magic. The text survives in multiple conflicting editions carrying false dates and altered contents. SatanWorld therefore attaches only a clearly identified historical French scan and records the edition separately.
