Goetia - S. L. MacGregor Mathers (1904)
The Thirty-fifth Spirit is Marchosias. He is a Great and Mighty
Marquis, appearing at first in the Form of a Wolf18 having
Gryphon’s Wings, and a Serpent’s Tail, and Vomiting Fire out
of his mouth. But after a time, at the command of the Exorcist he
putteth on the Shape of a Man. And he is a strong fighter. He was
of the Order of Dominations. He governeth 30 Legions of Spirits.
He told his Chief, who was Solomon, that after 1,200 years he had
hopes to return unto the Seventh Throne. And his Seal is this, to
be made and worn as a Lamen, etc.
Pseudomonarchia daemonum - Johann Wier (1583)
Marchosias is a great marquesse, he sheweth himselfe in the shape
of a cruell shee woolfe, with a griphens wings, with a serpents
taile, and spetting I cannot tell what out of his mouth. When he
is in a mans shape, he is an excellent fighter, he answereth all
questions trulie, he is faithfull in all the conjurors businesse,
he was of the order of dominations, under him are thirtie legions:
he hopeth after 1200 yeares to returne to the seventh throne, but
he is deceived in that hope.
Dictionnaire Infernal - Collin de Plancy (1863)
A great marquis of hell who commands 30 legions, Marchocias
appears as a she-wolf with griffin wings and a serpent's tail, and
spit flames. In human form, Marchocias appears as a grand soldier.
He obeys exorcists and the domination of angels.
