“The Fifty-second Spirit is Alloces, or Alocas. He is a Duke, Great, Mighty, and Strong, appearing in the Form of a Soldier riding upon a Great Horse. His Face is like that of a Lion, very Red, and having Flaming Eyes. His Speech is hoarse and very big. His Office is to teach the Art of Astronomy, and all the Liberal Sciences. He bringeth unto thee Good Familiars; also he ruleth over 36 Legions of Spirits. His Seal is this, which, etc.”
From Tikaboo
“Alloces (a.k.a. Allocer, Allocen, Aloces, or Alloien) is a Duke, Great, Mighty, and Strong, appearing in the Form of a Solider riding upon a Great Horse. His Face is like that of a Lion, very Red, and having Flaming Eyes. His Speech is hoarse and very big. His Office is to teach the Art of Astronomy, and all the Liberal Sciences. He bringeth unto thee Good Familiars; also he ruleth over 36 Legions of Spirits.”
From the Luciferian Goetia by Michael Ford
“He teaches and instructs in the art of sciences and brings very good familiars to who seeks to learn the use of planets in ones initiation. He rules over 36 Legions and may cause the sorcerers enemy to grow paranoid with the movements of the moon, if the magician wishes. “
