Also have a look at the writings of John Pordage.
Arthur Versluis has a chapter in his 'Wisdom's tradition'(1999) on the 'Visionary science of Dr.John Pordage'

> Although not specifically focused on angelic magic I would urge you to check out "Rhetoric, Science, and Magic in Seventeenth-Century England" -- a book-length study by Ryan J. Stark (Washington D.C., The Catholic University of America, 2009). It's a great read, full of excellent insights into the language and rhetoric present in grimoires and other occult writing of the time. I am sure you will find it of interest.
