Murmur

Murmur - before he turned into a fallen angel, Murmur was partly of the order of thrones and partly of the order of angels.  This "fact was proved after infinite research," reports Spence in An Encyclopaedia of Occultism, p. 119.  In Hell, Murmur is a great duke with 30 legions of infernal spirits attending him.  He manifests in the form of a warrior astride a gryphon, with a ducal crown upon his head.  He teaches philosophy and constrains the souls of the dead to appear before him for the answering of questions.  His sigil is shown in Waite, The Book of Black Magic and of Pacts, p. 182.  (a)

Three confederates held sway over the dead.  Murmur took charge of the soul, while Bifrons & Bune moved the bodies from one grave to another. (c)

His Office is to teach Philosophy perfectly, and to constrain Souls Deceased to come before the Exorcist to answer those questions which he may wish to put to them, if desired.
