Returning thieves and stolen goods, exposing wrongdoing, punishing thieves and wicked people, and discovering hidden treasure. [1]
Goetia 1904
Andromalius is absent from Scot’s complete inventory and closes the Goetia’s numbered sequence. He returns thieves and stolen goods, exposes underhand dealing, punishes wrongdoing and discovers hidden treasure. A human figure holding a great serpent accompanies this office of recovery and judgement. [2][1]
Raum and Shax take treasure or money from kings’ houses; Andromalius returns thieves and their stolen goods. His thirty-six-legion notice is immediately followed by the account of Solomon imprisoning all seventy-two for their pride. An individual office of punishment thus closes the catalogue before the collective story of confinement begins. [1][3][4][5]
