Amriel.

A hooded figure emerging from dark pooled ink and fading gray washes.
Modern AI-generated editorial interpretation of Amriel.

Amriel occurs in the Ars Paulina among the spirits attending the third hour of the night. Related-looking names also occur in Hebrew calendar material and zodiacal tables, but the spellings and offices should remain attached to their respective sources.

Amriel in the third hour of the night

Peterson’s transcription of Sloane MS 3825 calls the third nocturnal hour Quabrion and names Serquanich as its governing angel. Amriel appears in the following list of eighteen names, introduced as six dukes of the first order and twelve of the second.

The passage therefore places Amriel within the hour’s serving company. It does not name Amriel as the ruler of that hour, the fifth firmament or the entire month of May.

Imri El and Ambriel: comparisons rather than a merged biography

On printed page 62, Schwab records Imri El, glossed as word of God. He reports an association with Siwan and, according to other sources, Iyar. This is an entry in a scholarly lexicon, with different calendar assignments kept visible.

Agrippa’s II.14 table and III.24 list instead print Ambriel in the Gemini position. The table aligns that position with May. These are useful comparisons for readers encountering Amriel in modern name collections. The resemblance alone does not prove that the Ars Paulina’s attendant, Schwab’s calendar figure and Agrippa’s sign ruler have the same identity and all of one another’s duties.
