Making people wise, teaching diverse matters, changing metals to gold, and changing wine to water and water to wine. [1]
Goetia 1904
Scot gives Haagenti as many legions as Zagan, whose paragraph specifies thirty-three. The Goetia states thirty-three directly. Both describe a bull with gryphon wings, a later human shape, wisdom, the conversion of metals to gold and the exchange of wine and water. The earlier count thus links these two transforming spirits within the inventory itself. [2][1]
Haagenti makes a person wise, changes base metals to gold and exchanges the properties of wine and water. Zagan has a related but more specific metalworking office: turning metal into the coin of its dominion. Gold and coin identify different results, even though the notices share a gryphon-winged bull and several powers of transformation. [2][1][3]
