Something legal this time 
The Jewish National and University Library has digitized a large number of books, including Peculium Abrae by Abraham ben Meir de Balmes, which contains the Transitus Fluvii alphabet which also appears in Panteo's Voarchadumia.
Requires the DjVu plug-in (available from the website as a free download). Does not work in Chrome but functions OK in Firefox.

Also available is the Hebrew Grammar by Gesenius, and a large collection of works on the Cabala:

Most of these are in Hebrew, but there are also works by Pico and Khunrath.
Also Steinschneider's "Die hebräischen Übersetzungen des Mittelalters":
