	Another of the later chapters entitiled the Saracenic Rituals, focuses on the summoning and controlling other worldly beings. The layout of this chapter is a good example of Prinn's somewhat sadistic sense of humour since some of the spells required to control these summoned beings are written in totally different sections of the book.

	The De Vermis Mystreriis was first published in Brussels in 1542 at the press of Cologne. This edition is written in Latin.		<blockquote>
			"A huge book lay open upon the stand, writ both in Latin and crabbed runes which looked, to my unpractised eye, either Druidic or pre-Celtic.... I closed the book and looked at the words stamped into the leather: ''De Vermis Mystenis''. My Latin is rusty, but serviceable enough to translate: The Mysteries of the Worm. As I touched it, that accursed church... seemed to swim before me. It seemed that I heard low, chanting voices, full of hideous yet eager fear -and below that sound, another, filling the bowels of the earth. An hallucination, I doubt it not - but at the same moment, the church was filled with a very real sound, which I can only describe as a huge and macabre turning beneath my feet. The pulpit trembled beneath my fingers; the desecrated cross trembled on the wall."<br>- [[Stephen King]], "Jerusalem's Lot"

			The De Vermis Mystreriis was first published in Brussels in 1542 at the press of Cologne. This edition is written in Latin and in runes that might be described as "Druidic or Pre-Celtic" to the untrained eye, or akin to [[Aklo]] by Mythos scholars. A copy of this book was brought to [[Jerusalem's Lot]] in the 1700s, before the town fell to a nameless doom and was erased from history.
