Introduction

The most infamous Satanic ritual is the ceremony called Black Mass (Missa Niger/Messe Noire). The Black Mass has been practiced by our Satanic brothers and sisters for centuries, and it is still practiced today. However, many Satanists nowadays do not give much appreciation to it, by reason that they do not understand it. Most consider this rite to be nothing more than a blasphemy for those who hate God and the Church. Yet they do not understand its true aim and power.
While it is true that the Black Mass has been created to blaspheme the Church and to mock the Catholic Mass ritual, the full aim of the ritual is far more complex.
The Black Mass is, just like the Catholic Mass, a magickal rite. Occultists agree that as a ceremonial magick rite, the Catholic Mass and the Black Mass have the power to direct energies into the world. The Catholic Mass for example, is a ritual that is affecting much of the practitioner’s spiritual state and also the world around him. When a Catholic Mass is celebrated certain energies are generated and directed into the world. The energy of the Catholic Mass is a result of White Magick. Throughout time, priests and magicians have used the Mass to all kinds of magickal uses. When a person is sick, the Mass is said over the body of the individual to heal it through the power of the rite. Other times, it has been used to ward off diseases of cattle. It has also been used to bless houses, to bless fishing-boats to make them productive, to protect someone going on a journey, to bring rain and good weather and also to obtain children. It has been used as a tool of White Magick .
The Black Mass is a perversion of the Catholic Mass, and thus, also a magickal rite. It is, by itself, genuine Black Magick.
The magickal aim of the Black Mass is first of all concentrated on the liberation from the Christian energy that is directed, every day, by the power of the many Masses and Christian rituals. As I said, when a Christian Mass is celebrated, certain energies are generated into the world. What the Black Mass does is to distort these energies and redirect them. The Black Mass also generates its own forms of energy, that are to be directed into the world.
The psychological aim of the Black Mass is also to liberate the individual from the Christian dogma. It is a ritual that helps to liberate unconscious feelings, emotions. By its power, it throws the practitioner into a world of chaos, magick and lust. In a world of freedom. It simply breaks the chains that Christianity kept us in all these years.
We live in a world of Christian thought and White Light spirituality. We feel this influence in life every day, and we are under its control. Some, out of ignorance perhaps, accept it. Others struggle to break free, to get rid of this Christian programming and mind manipulation. As an example, there are many cases when an individual who is new to Satanism, wants to get rid of the Christian traces he still has imprinted in his mind. Since childhood people are taught of the Christian religion by ways of manipulation. Guilt and fear are the most used ways to teach the man of the Christian religion, and so when thoughts are imprinted in the mind of the child by such ways, he will carry them with him for all his life. Thus it becomes hard when one wishes to get rid of the Christian moral, of the lies with which it poisoned his heart and mind, or the fear that this religion put into him. We as Satanists, need to free our souls of any Christian influence. When such is the case, we need our ‘tools’ to tear down the walls. For this, rituals like the Black Mass are ideal. Because we as Satanists strive to get rid of this Christian influence as much as possible, we create our special rituals to help us achieve this goal. Either if it’s the Black Mass, the Initiation Rite or any other such blasphemous ritual, we work to rid ourselves of the energy of the Christian spirit.
Just like any other Ceremonial Magick ritual, the Black Mass needs its ‘ingredients’. These ingredients are added to the rite according to the practitioners liking and need.
When such a ritual is to be done, emotion is the basic ingredient to make it ‘work’. Putting your emotions into a ritual increases its power and makes it easier to direct into the world. The Black Mass, being a very blasphemous ritual, requires much emotion. Hate, lust, ecstasy.. all of this is needed to create the power of the ritual.
Many people are shocked by the Black Mass, and they have all the right to be. It is an extreme ritual. It is shocking, brutal and unmerciful. It is a ritual in which the practitioner releases all his emotions, good or bad, with no restraint. The more emotion given, the more powerful is the ritual. In the case of the Black Mass, where the aim is to utterly crush and destroy any Christian trace, the emotion and blasphemy must be at its highest level.


History and Descriptions of the Black Mass


The Mass is the central act of Christian worship. It is a ritual which is offered to God. The Black Mass as I said, is the inversion of the Christian Mass, a parody if you will. It is a ritual of mockery and blasphemy, which is instead offered to the Devil. As Christians meet for their pathetic Mass, so do we, at our Sabbaths, to celebrate the Black Mass as our main ritual, the very essence of our Devil Worship.
The Black Mass is a very old ritual, said to be dating back to the second century, when St.Irenaeus accused the Gnostic teacher Marcus of practicing a version of the Mass dedicated to a deity other than God. However, most scholars agree that its original form first started to be practiced somewhere around the 12th and 13th century.
In the 14th century, when the Church was persecuting heretics, many have been accused of conducting Black Masses, The Knights Templar being some of them. One instance of a Black Mass in the 14th century is said to have happened in 1325 at Cologne. The ritual was celebrated by a Dutchman who called himself Christ and a woman who was referred to as Virgin Mary. The ritual is said that had involved nudity and sex.
In the 15th and 16th century Black Masses seemed to have spread, as Gentien le Clerc (1615), a priest in Orleans, confessed to have performed Black Masses followed by drinking and sexual orgies.
In the 16th century, Catherine de Medici, the Queen of France was said to have performed a Black Mass, all based on a story by Jean Bodin in his book on witchcraft. Catherine, being involved or at least connected with the spread of poisonings which then were at high number especially in France and Italy, was said to also have been related to Satanic rituals, some which were Italian versions of Black Masses.
Also, Catherine de Medici was said to have worn talismans bearing Satanic symbols and names of Demons including Asmodei (Asmodeus). The son of Catherine de Medici, Henri de Valois continued the practice of black magick and the Black Mass in the turrets of his castle in the Bois de Vincennes. After he died a whole collection of Black Mass and black magick items were discovered. The Medici Mass as it is called, is more fictional for there is little evidence to back up this story.
In the 17th century, around the year 1647, the nuns of Louviers claimed to have been forced to participate naked in such Masses. Madeleine Bavent, a nun of Louviers in Normandy wrote in prison that she was forced by Father Pierre David, the chaplain of the convent at that time, to attend Mass naked. The nuns, she says, used to go completely naked in the church and in the gardens, and danced before Father David. In 1628 Father Mathurin Picard became chaplain with Father Thomas Boulle as his assistant. They both practiced the Black Mass with the nuns at a house near the convent. This continued until Picard died and Boulle was burned alive. Madeleine died in prison the same year at the age of 40.
Between 1673 and 1689 at least fifty priests were executed for sacrilege and others were imprisoned. Father Davot was convicted of saying Black Mass over the naked body of a woman. Father Tournet was convicted of saying Mass on the body of a young girl whom he had made pregnant, with the intention that she would miscarry. Father Gerard was convicted of using a girl’s body as his altar in saying Mass and copulating with her as part of the ceremony.
Many of the sacrilegious priests were arrested as a result of the activities of a special court, set up by Louis XIV in 1679 to deal with cases of poisoning involving some of the French nobility. The court’s sessions were secret and from its verdict there was no appeal. Meeting in a room hung entirely in black and lit with candles, it was called the Chambre Ardente or Burning Court. Its investigation, headed by Nicholas de la Reymie, Police Commissioner Of Paris, rapidly extended from poisoning into sorcery. The most skeptical modern writers have conceded a strong element of truth in de la Reymie’s reports.
The investigations centered round a widow named Catherine Deshayes (1640-1680), known as La Voisin, a famous witch, fortune-teller and suspected abortionist. La Voisin was known to have been procuring poisons and charms and to perform magickal ceremonies in her home in the Rue De Beauregard. Such was the case when she assisted Etienne Guibourg (1610-1680), a French Roman Catholic abbe in his sixties, to perform Black Masses for Francoise-Athenais (Madame de Montespan). The Marquise de Montespan, born in 1641, was the mistress of King Louis XIV of France. She came to La Voisin with the intention of performing magick to alienate the king from both the queen and the Duchesse de la Valliere, to make herself his mistress and ultimately his wife. La Voisin agreed to help, and, together with her daughter Marguerite and the old Abbe Guibourg, have decided to perform three Black Masses to grant Montespan whatever she desired.
Madame de Montespan was used as an altar in the ceremony. She lied naked upon the altar with the chalice resting on her belly, and the Black Masses were said over her body. Her head was lying on a pillow, her arms were stretched out crosswise with black candles on her hands, and her legs were spread out.
Abbe Guibourg, standing between Montespan’s legs, invoked Satan and the demons Beelzebub, Asmodeus and Astaroth and began to perform the Black Mass. Whenever the mass called for kissing the altar, Guibourg kissed Montespan. He consecrated the host over Monstespan’s genitals after which he inserted pieces into her vagina.
When La Voisin’s house was searched a curious chapel was discovered. Its walls were draped in black and behind the altar was a black curtain. A mattress rested on the altar, covered by a black cloth, and on top of this were black candles. There were magical books and candles made with human fat, supplied by a public executioner who was one of La Voisin’s lovers.
La Voising was burned alive in February 1680 and in October the king suspended the sittings of the Burning Court, probably because his mistress, Madame de Montespan, had been implicated. But de la Reymie continued his enquiries in secret, on the king’s instructions, until June 1682.
Guibourg was imprisoned in the castle of Besancon, chained to the wall of his cell for three years till his death.
The Guibourg Mass as it is called, shows several similarities to the Medici Mass that is, the Black Mass performed by Catherine de Medici, the Queen of France during the 16th century.
Huysmans tells us in his novel “La-Bas” (1891) that Guibourg celebrated other versions of Mass, one of them called the Spermatic Mass. In this ritual, Guibourg wearing the alb, the stole and the maniple, would celebrate this Mass with the sole object of making pastes with which to conjure the Devil. Some archives, he says, inform us that he once did this at the request of a certain Madame Des Oeillettes. This woman, who was indisposed, gave some blood; the man who accompanied her stood beside the bed where the scene took place, and Guibourg caught some of his semen in the chalice; powdered blood and some flour was added and, after he sacrilegious ceremonies, the Des Oeillettes woman departed bearing her paste.
Later on, in the 18th and 19th century the Black Mass was still a celebrated rite. Although not connected with supernatural practices or the worship of Satan, the writings of the famous Marquis de Sade are filled with descriptions of the Host and rituals of the Catholic Church being subjected to sexual settings, such as Mass being performed by a priest upon the naked body of a girl. In 1788 the Marquis de Sade describes in his famous novel Justine (2nd version) a celebration of a black mass in a cloister. Another of his novels, Juliette (1797), in parts four and five, describes a meeting between Juliette and Pope Pius VI in the Vatican. In many other writings, he places the Host and the Mass, the priest and the Pope himself in sexual settings. There is no doubt that such ideas were widespread and commonplace in the France of de Sade’s time.
During the 19th century the London based coven called the Hellfire Club was said to perform Black Masses and to worship the Devil.
In a later part of the century, more exactly in 1862, historian Jules Michelet offers us another view on the Black Mass in his book “Satanism And Witchcraft”.
In 1889 Le Matin carried an account by a reporter who had written an article in which doubted the existence of the Black Mass, but had been invited to one. He was taken to it with blindfolds on his eyes and when they were removed found himself in a dark room with erotic murals. On the altar, surrounded by six black candles, was an image of a goat trampling on a crucifix. The priest wore red robes and the congregation of about fifty men and women chanted hymns. Mass was said on the bare body of a woman stretched on the altar. Black hosts were consecrated and eaten by the worshippers and the ceremony culminated in an orgy. Le Matin confirmed that the reporter had really been to this meeting, but would give no further details.
In 1891, Joris-Karl Huysmans wrote the classic novel La-Bas (The Damned). This magnificent book offers us a clearer picture of what the French Satanism had been up to that point. He describes in deep detail a Black Mass (in chapter 19) which he claimed was practiced in Paris in those years. The description of the Black Mass by Huysmans differs in many ways from the others especially in that Satan is explicitly worshipped, and hatred is openly expressed against Christianity. It is not certain if he ever attended a Black Mass, though he had claimed he did. La-Bas however, still remains only a work of fiction.
The 20th century had offered us no real historical accounts of Black Masses. However, many writings have been created on the subject. One of them is the popular book The Satanic Mass by H.T.F. Rhodes, published in 1954. Rhodes, while having access to all the historical documents, writes that, at the time of his writing, there did not exist a single first hand source which actually described the rites and ceremonies of a Black Mass. Other writings would be Gerhard Zacharias’s “The Dark God: Satan Worship and Black Masses”, Richard Cavendish “The Black Arts”, Anton LaVey’s “Satanic Rituals”.
One other modern writing describing the Black Mass is the Black Book Of Satan by The Order Of Nine Angels. In this book the version of the Black Mass is changed. Whilst in the other Black Masses known, the altar is a naked female, in the Black Mass offered by O.N.A. the altar is a naked male.
During the period of the Middle Ages the Black Mass began to get form from numerous other rituals who were parodies of the Catholic Mass ritual, such as The Feast Of Asses and The Feast of Fools who were Church festivities at the time. The Feast Of Asses is a parody of the Mass in which Balaam’s Ass (from the Old Testament) would begin talking and saying parts of the mass. Other such parodies were “drinkers mass” and “gamblers mass” which lamented the situation of drunk, gambling monks, and instead of calling to “Deus” (God), called to “Bacchus” (God Of Wine). Some of these Latin parody works are found in the medieval Latin collection of poetry, Carmina Burana, written around 1230. The Catholic Church, however, eventually reacted by condemning them as sacrilegious and blasphemous.
One other important ritual of such is The Mass of Saint-Secaire which is said to originate in the Middle Ages in Gascony. Priests used to be condemned to have attempted Masses for evil purposes such as cursing a person to death. Such is The Mass of Saint-Secaire.
In my opinion, the main reason for which the Black Mass has been so much practiced in the Middle Ages is because the people felt more “poisoned” by Christianity and were intoxicated by it at that time. The Black Mass was practiced by our brothers and sisters at their Sabbaths to worship our Lord Satan and to destroy the Christian influence that was suffocating them.
The Black Mass has evolved a lot since its original form. At first, it was an act of liberation to bring back the Pagan spirit that the witches had long forgotten and to put aside the Christian influence that suffocated everyone. In later times, it became more and more indecent, more blasphemous, more wild and evil.
Although many false information is given to us in the books, much of it is true. That the witches used to fly to their Covens for Sabbaths to celebrate Black Masses seems of course to be a false story and so it must be. Other stories though, are true, and the traditions such as re-baptizing in the name of the Devil, dancing in circles, inverting the cross, spitting and stepping on the cross, stabbing the host and orgies of non-marital partners are still being practiced today.
An interesting yet disturbing fact that we come across in most books on the subject of witchcraft and Satanism, is that human sacrifice is performed at the Black Mass. I personally, in all this time of research and study, have never stumble upon such an act in Satanism. The idea that most of these books were written by Christians gives me doubt that this acts have truly been performed. Thus I shall not speak of it in this essay.
What I want to talk about right now is the way that this ritual began to get form and how it changed its structure over the years, though its aim remained the same. To blaspheme the Church and to give praise to the Devil.
From the earliest versions of the Black Mass to the last, we recognize that its form had changed only a little. The ritual, in its form and structure, has always remained similar to the Catholic Mass as it is performed. We know from the book Satanic Rituals of Anton LaVey that some versions of the Black Mass have even remained the same in sight and so in verbal structure. Some versions of the Black Mass were performed in vestments consecrated by the Roman Catholic Church, though it was an exception rather than a rule. The authenticity of a consecrated host seems to have been far more important. It is well known that the objective of the Coven was to steal the Host from the Church and to bring it to the Sabbath to be used in the Black Mass. When the witches went at the altar for Communion, they retained the Host in their mouths and then hidden it so that no one could see them. It is said that money were given to those who purchased the Hosts from the Church.
When the Host was not stolen from the Church, the witches made their own Hosts. These were generally black or blood-red instead of white, bearing Satanic markings or images of Satan stamped on them. In 1324 there was found in the home of Alice Kyteler, a Kilkenny witch, “a wafer of sacramental bread, having the devil’s name stamped thereon instead of Jesus Christ”. The Host is sometimes shaped hexagonal or triangular.
Sometimes the host and wine were replaced by different drinks and foods such as apples (to represent the Forbidden Fruit), turnips, sausages, crackers, water or juice (mostly apple juice).
Instead of white candles, black candles are used in the Black Mass. The Altar is covered by a black cloth, sometimes velvet or silk.
The places where Black Masses are practiced are various, either indoor or outdoor. If a Black Mass is to be practiced outdoors, forests and caves are the places where they are to be done. If it is indoors, an entire room has to be prepared for it. Cellars are perfect for such a ritual.
The room is draped with black hangings and the windows are shuttered with curtains drawn.
Cavendish tells us that in May 1895 at the Palazzo Borghese a Satanic chapel was discovered. The walls of the room were draped with scarlet and black curtains excluding all light and at the farther end was stretched a tapestry depicting “Lucifer Triumphans”, and underneath an altar was a figure of Satan. The room was furnished with luxurious chairs of crimson and gold, with tabourets and faldstools.
Traditionally, an image of Satan stands above the altar. A Baphomet or Inverted Cross has its place beneath the image of Satan.
As for the clothing of the participants, it is not a rule. In the early versions of the Black Mass it is said that the vestments of the priest conducting the ritual had to be those of a Catholic Priest, all consecrated. In later times, the vestments changed..
The basic vestments are black or blood-red robes. A witch tried in southern France in 1594 described that at the saying of Mass at a Sabbath held on St.John’s Eve the celebrant wore a black cope. Sometimes the vestments bear Satanic symbols such as inverted crosses, Baphomets or magickal symbols.
The modern version given to us by the Order of the Nine Angels is different. The priestess is clad in white robes, the Mistress of Earth in scarlet robes, the Master in purple robes and the Congregation in Black Robes.
What is to happen at a Black Mass also varies. Besides the ceremonial rituals, the traditional form of the Black Mass often involves sex, dancing and feasts at the end or even during the ritual. As you have already observed from the stories I have told, sex has an important part in the ritual and women have an important role in the ritual. The orgy is said to be derived from the rites of the Bacchanalia or Dionysiac cults of ancient Rome and Greece.
Dances are also common. As Michelet beautifully puts it in his book “Satanism and Witchcraft” :“This dance, this whirling frenzy, the notorious “Witches’ Round”, was amply sufficient by itself to complete the first stage of intoxication. The performers danced back to back, arms behind the back, without seeing their partner, though back often came in contact with back. Little by little each man lost all knowledge of self and of her he had beside him. Old age and ugliness were abolished by a veritable satanic miracle; she was still a woman, still lovable and confusedly loved.”
At the end of the ritual a feast is used to take place, though is not a necessity.




The Black Mass Itself

The is an example of a modern Black Mass as it is practiced by the Satanic Organization “Order Of Nine Angels (ONA)” . Remember that this ritual is different from the traditional form, differing by many aspects, though many actions in this rite still hold on to tradition.


Participants :

Altar Priest – lies naked upon altar
Priestess – in white robes
Mistress Of Earth – in scarlet robes
Master – in purple robes
Congregation – in black robes

Setting :

Usually an indoor Temple. If outdoors, clearings in forests or woods are suitable. Caves are ideal. The reason for such Outdoor settings are to provide an impression of ‘enclosure’.

Versions :

The Black Mass exists in several versions. The one given below is the version most often used today. The other main version uses almost the same text, but is undertaken by a Priest using a naked Priestess on the altar.

Preparation of the Temple :

Hazel incense to be burnt (if obtainable, the hazel is mingled with civit). Several chalices full of strong wine. Black candles. Several patens (of silver if possible) containing the consecrated cakes – these are baked the night before by the Priestess and blessed (i.e. dedicated to the Prince Of Darkness) by the Mistress Of Earth. The cakes consist of honey, spring water, sea salt, wheat flour, eggs and animal fat. One paten is set aside for the ritual hosts. These should be obtained from a Nazarene place of worship – but if this is not possible, they are made by the Priestess if imitation of them (unlevened white hosts).


THE BLACK MASS

The Priestess signifies the beginning of the Mass by clapping her hands together twice. The Mistress Of Earth turns to the congregation, makes the sign of the inverted pentagram with her left hand, saying:

I will go down to the altars in Hell.

The Priestess responds by saying:

To Satan, the giver of life.

All :

Our Father which wert in Heaven hallowed be thy name In heaven as it is on Earth. Give us this day our ecstasy And deliver us to evil as well as temptation For We are your kingdom for aeons and aeons .

Master:

May Satan the all powerful Prince of Darkness
And Lord Of Earth
Grant us our desires.

All:

Prince of Darkness, hear us!
I believe in one prince, Satan, who reigns over this Earth,
And in one Law which triumphs over all. I believe in one Temple
Our Temple to Satan, and in one Word which triumphs over all :
The Word of ecstasy. And I believe in the Law of the Aeon,
Which is sacrifice, and in the letting of blood
For which I shed no tears since I give praise to my Prince
The fire giver and look forward to his reign
And the pleasures that are to come!

The Mistress kisses the Master, then turns to the congregation, saying: May Satan be with you.

Master:

Veni, omnipotens aeternae diabolus!

Mistress:

By the word of the Prince Of Darkness, I give praise to you

(she kisses the lips of the altar Priest)

My Prince, bringer of enlightenment. I greet you
Who cause us to struggle and seek the forbidden thoughts.

(the Master repeats the “veni” chant)

Mistress:

Blessed are the strong for they shall inherit the Earth.

(she kisses the chest of the altar Priest)

Blessed are the proud for they shall breed gods!

(she kisses the penis of the altar Priest)

Let the humble and the meek die in their misery!

(she kisses the Master who passes the kiss on to the Priestess who kisses each member of the congregation. After this, she hands the paten containing the ‘hosts’ to the Mistress. The Mistress holds the paten over the altar Priest, saying:)

Praised are you, my Prince and lover, by the strong
Through our evil we have this dirt; by our boldness and
Strength, it will become for us a joy in this life.

All:

Hail Satan, Prince of Life !

(the Mistress places the paten on the body of the altar Priest, saying quietly:)

Suscipe, Satanas, munus quad tibi offerimus memoriam
Recolentes vindex.

(the Priestess, quietly saying ‘Sanctissimi Corporis Satanas’, begins to masturbate the altar Priest. As she does, the congregation begin to clap their hands and shout in encouragement while the Master and the Mistress chant the ‘Veni’ chant. The Priestess allows the semen to fall upon the ‘hosts’, then hands the paten to the Mistress who holds it up before the congregation saying to them:)

May the gifts of Satan be forever with you.

All:

As they are with you !

(the Mistress returns the paten to the body of the altar Priest, takes up one of the chalices, saying:)

Praised are you, my Prince, by the defiant: through our Arrogance and Pride
We have this drink: let it become for us an elixir of life.

(she sprinkles some of the wine over the altar Priest and towards the congregation, then returns the chalice to the altar, saying to the congregation:)

With pride in my heart I give praise to those who drove
The nails
And he who thrust the spear into the body of Yeshua,
The imposter.
May his followers rot in their rejection and filth!

(the Master addresses the congregation saying:)

Do you renounce Yeshua, the great deceiver, and all his works?

All:

We do renounce the Nazarene Yeshua, the great deceiver and all his works.

Master:

Do you affirm Satan?

All:

We do affirm Satan!

(The Master begins to vibrate “Agios O Satanas” while the Mistress picks up the paten with the ‘hosts’ and turns to the congregation, saying:)

I who am the joys and pleasures of life which strong men have forever sought, am come to show you my body and my blood.

(she gives the paten to the Priestess, then removes the robe of the Priestess, saying:)

Remember, all you gathered here, nothing is beautiful except Man: but most beautiful of all is Women.

(the Priestess gives the paten back to the Mistress, then takes the chalices and consecrated cakes to the congregation who eat and drink. When all have finished, the Mistress holds up the paten, saying:)

Behold, the dirt of the earth which the humble will eat!

(the congregation laughs while the Mistress flings the ‘hosts’ at them which they trample underfoot while the Master continues with the ‘Agios O Satanas’ vibration. The Mistress claps her hands three times to signal to the congregation. She then says:)

Dance, I command you!

(the congregation then begin a dance, counter sunwise, chanting ‘Satan! Satan!’ while they dance. The Priestess catches them one by one, kisses the person caught and then removes their robe after which they return to the dance. The Mistress stands in the centre of the dancers, and uplifting her arms, says:)

Let the church of the imposter Yeshua crumble into dust
Let all the scum who worship the rotting fish suffer and die in their misery and rejection!
We trample on them and spit of their sin!
Let there be ecstasy and darkness; let there be chaos and laughter
Let there be sacrifice and strife: but above all let us enjoy the gifts of life!

(she signals to the Priestess who stops the dancers of her choice. The congregation then pair off, and the orgy of lust begins. The Mistress helps the altar Priest down from the altar, and he joins in the festivities if he wishes.)

Should the Master and Mistress wish, the energies of the ritual are then directed by them towards a specific intention.
