Enchiridion Talismans and Angelic Monograms
Nine circular designs combine geometric figures, lettering and monograms. Waite identifies Plate IV with the Mystic Figures of the Enchiridion and associates several signs with Michael and Gabriel. His explanation also calls some inscriptions corrupt or unintelligible. The plate’s uneven legibility is part of its source history, so the unresolved lettering remains unresolved.
