Magic Antiquated Language And The Universal Mystery
Ancient-sounding words project an aura of tradition, of "'old wisdom' handed down through generations." It's little wonder that the archetypical depiction of a magician involves the utterance of antiquated words, in addition to the grand gestures that impart a larger-than-life dimension to his activities. And because archaic magic words necessarily predate a magician's own life, they point to the existence of a "transcendent" realm beyond the logic and laws of our ordinary world.

Needless to say, a magician's patter can serve to distract, for "We get mesmerized by magic words" (Dale Mathers, An Introduction to Meaning and Purpose in Analytical Psychology [2002]).
