Amy - Once an angel of the order of angels and of the order of powers, Amy is not "a great president" in the lower realms.  He "gives perfect knowledge of astrology and the liberal arts."  He once confided to King Solomon that he hopes to return to the 7th throne "in 1200 years," which says the demonologist Wierus, "is incredible."  Amy's seal is figured in The Book of Black Magic and of Pacts, p. 184 (a)

Amy: Grand President of Hades, and one of the princes of the infernal monarchy,  He appears there enveloped with flame, but on earth, in human form.  He teaches the secrets of astrology and of the liberal arts, and gives faithful servants.  He reveals to those who possess his favour, the hiding-place of treasures guarded by demons.  36 of the infernal legions are under his command.  The fallen angels acknowledge his orders, and he hopes that at the end of 200,000 years, he shall return to heaven to occupy the seventh throne. (b)
