Which one? The spoken prayer at the beginning, or the ritual in the lyrics? The first prayer, "O Thou, who giveth sustenance to the Universe...", is taken from the Charge of the Goddess - a very beautiful Wiccan piece of prayer, apparently written by Tuscany witches. The second ritual, "Gabriel before me...", is taken from the Banishing Ritual of the Lesser Pentagram, which I believe was written by Aleister Crowley. Hope this helps!
