Just maybe to make a remake of the initial lines to put things aplace???
Initial:
> Опальный ангел, с небом разлученный,
> Узывный демон, разлюбивший ад
> Ветров и бурь бездомный странный брат,
> Душой внимавший песне звезд всезвонный,
Remade:
> Опальный ангел, с небом разлученный,
> Отозванный из ада и разлюбивший ад
> Ветров и бурь бездомный странный брат,
> Душой внимавший песне звезд всезвонный,
Is it of help???
With respect, Konstantin.

It seems that no one has answered that yet.
Let me try then.
"Uzyvnyj" comes from "uzyvat'" which is a form from "zvat'."
For example, see Vladimir Dal's dictionary for "zvat'."
It is on-line:
http://slovari.yandex.ru/art.xml?art=dal/dal/03072/59300.htm&encpage=dal&mrkp=http%3A//hghltd.yandex.com/yandbtm%3Furl%3Dhttp%253A//encycl.yandex.ru/texts/dal/dal/03072/59300.htm%26text%3D%25F3%25E7%25E2%25E0%25F2%25FC%26reqtext%3D%25F3%25E7%25E2%25E0%25F2%25FC%253A%253A1819103916%26%26isu%3D2
One can find there "uzovi" as an example ("uzovi ego s soboju" meaning
"call him to attract and take him away with you"). So, "uzyvnyj" is
someone or something who/which calls to attract and takes away.
The Bal'mont's sonnet is dated 1916.
Interstingly enough is that Vyacheslav Ivanov used both words "demon" and
"uzyvnyj" -- however, not in the same line -- ten years before Bal'mont in
his poem "Vyzyvanije Vakkha" (1906).
