Aglafys

Aglafys: A demon said to serve Paimon, one of the four infernal princes of the cardinal directions. Aglafys appears in the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage. Notably, AGLA is a word that commonly appears on amulets associated with the grimoiric tradition. It is also used in the invocation of spirits, typically occurring alongside “secret” names of God, such as Shaddai and Sabaoth. In the Mathers edition of the Abramelin material, the name of this demon is given as Aglafos.
