Note 232 — Chapter I · PRIESTS AND POPES ACCUSED OF MAGIC
Arthur Edward Waite translation
It must be explained that the oration in the Grimoire is not rhythmic, but the “when I shall impose my will upon them” recurs several times, literally or in substance. In this manner Éliphas Lévi gets the refrain of his verses: Je leur imposerai ma volonté pour loi. His metrical rendering is well conceived and executed.
