A bull with gryphon’s wings becomes a human teacher who changes metals and liquids. Haagenti makes people wise, turns all metals into gold, and exchanges wine and water in both directions. [1]
Goetia 1904
Haagenti first appears as a mighty bull with a gryphon’s wings, then takes human shape at the exorcist’s command. The president makes people wise and teaches diverse matters. His material transformations turn all metals into gold, wine into water and water into wine. Thirty-three legions are assigned to him. [1]
Scot gives Haagenti as many legions as Zagan rather than printing a number in this notice. Zagan’s paragraph supplies thirty-three. The two material offices also differ: Haagenti makes gold, while Zagan turns metals into the coin of the relevant dominion. The 1904 catalogue retains gold-making for Haagenti and states the legion total directly. [1][2][3]
