Magic, White and Black e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The favor with which Magic has been received by those who are interested in the study of the hidden mysteries of Nature, made it expedient to publish a third edition of this book. From an insignificant pamphlet, written originally for the purpose of demonstrating to a few inexperienced inquirers, that the study of the occult side of nature was not identical with the vile practices of sorcery, Magic grew into a book of respectable dimensions, and now this new edition is to be still more enlarged, and I hope will also become still more useful. The most serious Objection which has been made against this book has been on account of its title; but the causes which induced me to select such a title were suggested by the purpose for which the book was intended; nor would I. At present be able to find one more appropriate for it, for Magic means that divine art of exercise of spiritual power by which the awakened spirit in man may con trol the living elements.
