Bariel governs the eleventh hour of the day in the Ars Paulina, the third part of the Lemegeton. Joseph H. Peterson’s transcription of Sloane MS 3825 gives the hour the name Maneloym.
The eleventh daytime hour
The passage describes Bariel’s dukes and servants as divided into ten parts, containing a total of 5,600. It then selects five first-order dukes and ten lesser dukes for the practical section. The first five are Almarizel, Prasiniel, Chadros, Turmiel and Lamiel.
The selected company has 1,100 servant spirits attending it. This figure belongs to the passage’s practical selection, while 5,600 describes the larger company; they are not interchangeable totals.
An office in an hourly catalogue
Bariel’s description belongs to a ritual system organized around the hours of day and night. His position is comparable to Barquiel’s seventh daytime hour and Abasdarhon’s fifth night hour, each with its own named company.
