John Dee's own manuscript record of his angelic sessions with Edward Kelley, held today by the British Library, and the direct source of the letter names and received order used in the Enochian system. As original manuscripts they are authoritative for documenting what Dee's own record actually contains, cited as his own account rather than as independent evidence. This citation is honestly qualified: the manuscripts themselves were not consulted directly for entries in this atlas, which instead relied on the authority of a published reference source describing them, and a claim needing manuscript level precision should be checked against the manuscripts or a direct scholarly edition of them rather than assumed settled by this citation alone.
