A77144Qust Doe you not know salvation is to be had for the worst of sinners, if they are willing to be saved?
A77144Suppose the best, That such a shamefull end shall not betyde them: Yet is there any happynesse or any good to be found in the Devils service?
A77144The Witch replyed, Do you not lie to me?
A77144They asked her the reason why?
A77144What a madness rests in the sons of men, to think they can repent when theywill?
A77144Who would willingly have lived her life?
A77144but who then would dye her death?
A77144she answered, Yes, from the Jury; I replyed, But have you any minde to be saved from Hell?
A77144she answered, a Spell written in a peece of paper: And heing demanded to whom she did pray for cure?
A70179( 3) To the Quaery, What were the Boards that moved, by what light was their motion seen, and by whom?
A70179And how will he clear his own Bargains and Transactions of business from being Dreams and Illusions?
A70179And if so, What Interest could he serve in maintaining such a cheat, if it were one, and he knew it to be so?
A70179And must we call this WIT Sir?
A70179And now, Can the Sun borrow its Light from the bottomless Abyss?
A70179And those dissenters are ready to ask a reason, why they may not be sent in messages to Earth, as well as those of the Angelical Order?
A70179And will he lend his Legions, to assist the Armies of his Enemy against him?
A70179As for Mr. G. what opinion he hath of his own Gift, and how he came to know it?
A70179But how shall the power be known to be so, when we so little understand the capacities, and extent of the abilities of lower Agents?
A70179But then meeting with Alice Coward, sister to Jane Brooks, who passing by, said to him[ How do you my Honey?]
A70179Can Fire freeze, and Water burn?
A70179Can Heat and Warmth flow in upon the World from the Regions of Snow and Ice?
A70179Can Natures, so infinitely contrary, communicate, and jump in projects, that are destructive to each others known Interests?
A70179He ask''d again, why she sate with one hand over the other?
A70179He enquired if any thing were amiss with her hand?
A70179How proves he his Relation, and consequently Succession to the rights of his presumed progenitors?
A70179Is there any Balsome in the Cockatrice''s Egge?
A70179It hath indeed been a great dispute among Interpreters, whether the real Samuel was raised, or the Devil in his likeness?
A70179The Constable ask''d her how she did?
A70179To make a due return to this, we must consider a great and difficult Problem, which is, what is a real Miracle?
A70179To that, whether the Drummers Drum was ever looked on while it beat; or was it only in the Dark?
A70179What part of the Childrens Bed did the Daemon beat, and what noise did it make?
A70179Will the Prince of Darkness strengthen the Arm that is stretcht out to pluck his Usurp''t Scepter, and his Spoils from him?
A70179or, Can the Spirit of Life flow from the Venome of the Asp?
A70179yea, that our very Faculties were not given us only to delude and abuse us?
A70179you ask, In what clearness of light were the Chairs seen walk about, and by what Witnesses?
A4716728. in his discourse of Witchcraft: How may the People of New- England relish this?
A47167And if I by Belzebub cast out Devils, by whom do your Children cast them out?
A47167And if Sathan cast out Sathan, he is divided against himself, how shall then his Kingdom stand?
A47167And if he say, It was because the Devil had left her, how soon she came there, Why may not the same be alledged on behalf of the Quakers Meetings?
A47167And who saith all Light is God?
A47167And why are ye not as zealous for washing one anothers feet, and anointing the sick with Oyl?
A47167But is a bare Report or Hear- say sufficient to discredit a Passage that is known to so many living Witnesses in that Town?
A47167But what saith the People of New- England now to Cotton Mather, who doth so accuse them?
A47167But what then?
A47167But why should the colour of black be judged by Cotton Mather so much to resemble the Devil?
A47167Can there be any inward power of Godliness, without Christ living, dwelling and ruling in the heart?
A47167Doth it therefore follow, that Diabolical Possession in this Damsel did incline her to be of Pauls Religion?
A47167Doth not both thy Fathers weakness and thine also manifestly appear in this Charge?
A47167Hast thou no other way to defend thy Idol of Water- baptism, but to smite against the Lord Jesus Christ, in his inward appearance in his Saints?
A47167Hath not God many ways to reveal himself to the ouls of men, and the depth of his Counsel, that passeth our search and understanding?
A47167Have there not been mad People, and whimsical both of the Presbyterian and Independent Churches?
A47167Here thy scoffing airy Spirit appeareth, as oft else- where; how can the world be blessed with a Volumn of Heresies and Blasphemies?
A47167I Answer; Then why dost thou not produce this twefth Article, and demonstrate it so to be, as thou affirmest?
A47167I am sure more expresly commanded by Christ, and Iames the Apostle, than your Water baptism?
A47167If I grant thee that both Iohn''s preaching and baptism, in a true sence, is a beginning of the Gospel, what gainest thou by it?
A47167If this be a Light flowing from God, and a Ministration of God, how can it fail in any respect, and be insufficient?
A47167Is not this worse than that call''d Abbington Law, where it is said, Men were first hanged and afterwards tryed?
A47167Now, what sayst thou, Cotton Mather, to this?
A47167To this I answered; What can all this say to discredit the Quakers Religion and Principle?
A47167To this thou answerest, not denying, but that a Possession of evil Spirits may befall one of your Communion: What then?
A47167and as it is in Iob, When the Sons of God came together, Sathan also came among them?
A47167doth it therefore follow that Water- baptism is a pure Gospel Precept, and to be observed to the end of the world?
A47167doth it therefore follow that they are owned by that People, or are of their Society?
A47167let them see to it, and if they be not guilty of his Charge, whether is he not severely to be reprehended?
A47167must they also by Cotton Mathers Authority be like unto the Devil?
A09402107 Whether that which was raised by the Witch of Endor, was true Samuel, or no?
A09402219 Whether the child of God may be bewitched or no?
A09402And what is there in the nature of these actions to produce such effects?
A09402And what should mooue the Lord to allot so high a degree of punishment to that sort of offenders?
A09402And why so?
A09402Ans ▪ It can not be denied that they are causes of some things, but I demand, what causes?
A09402B ● t how then comes it to passe, that all such persons are not speedily detected, but some liue long, and others die without any mans priuitie?
A09402But how doe they rest, if after they be dead they wander vp and downe in the earth?
A09402But how then comes it to passe, that helpe is often procured by these& such like meanes?
A09402But how then comes it to passe, that the consultations and actions of Gods Church and children, are not disclosed to their enemies?
A09402But some Witches there be that can not be conuicted of killing any: what shall become of them?
A09402But what if these doe hurt, or kill, must they not then die?
A09402But what of that?
A09402But why should the VVitch be so sharply censured?
A09402By warrant of this doctrine, a question commonly mooued, may be resolued: Whether the seruant and child of God, may be bewitched or nor?
A09402Can not Gods word be effectuall, when it is vsed to edification, vnlesse the worke of his owne Spirit accompany the same?

A09402Here a question is mooued by some, whether the deuil can change one creature into another, as a man or woman into a beast?
A09402Hovv doth that appeare?
A09402How may this be done?
A09402How we may be able in these our daies to discerne and discouer a Witch?
A09402I answer, they did so, but how?
A09402If I through Beelzebub cast out Deuills, then by whome doe your children cast them out?
A09402If it be asked then, what they are, and whereto they serue?
A09402If it be demanded, how he is able to doe this?
A09402If it be here asked, whence the deuill did fetch and conceiue his rules?
A09402If they be the same( as it shall appeare they are) then how we may in these daies be able to discerne, and discouer a Witch?
A09402In this case what saith the Law?
A09402In this manner Paul affirmeth that the Galatians were deluded, whē he saith, O foolish G ● latians who hath bewitched you?
A09402It must be granted that the charmer may inchant the serpent: but how?
A09402Now if question bee made, how the deuill knewe the euent of this warre, and consequently made it knowne to Alexander?
A09402O foolish Gal ● tians, who hath* bewitched you?
A09402The first is, Whether that which appeared, was true Samuel or not?
A09402The starres indeede by this ordinance doe serue for signes, but of what?
A09402There being th ● some stars, whose vertues are vnknowne, how can their operations and effects be discerned in particular?
A09402What remedie may be vsed against the hurt of Witchcraft?
A09402Whether a man may preuent the danger of Witchcraft, and if he may, than what Remedies he may lawfully and effectually vse against it?
A09402Whether our Witches are to be punished with death, and that by vertue of this Lawe of Moses?
A09402Whether the Witches of our age are to be punished with death, and that by vertue of this law of Moses?
A09402Whether the Witches of our times, be the same with those that are here condemned by Moses Law?
A09402Whether the Witches of our times, be the same with those, that are here condemned by the law of Moses?
A09402Whether the witches of our times are to be punished with death, and that by vertue of this Law of Moses?
A09402Whome then did Saul adore?
A09402Why he permitteth them?
A09402Would any man thinke, that this were a reasonable allegation, and a sufficient meane to mooue the Iudge to acquite him?
A09402and if in the words, why may not other words be of like 〈 ◊ 〉 beeing vttered by man?
A09402doth it therfore follow, that these effects doe declare before hand the constitution of mans bodie?
A09402or finally ▪ what successe they shall haue in their affaires, touching wealth, honour, and religion?
A09402or where, or when did God giue this vertue to them, certainely to determine of things hidden from man, and knowne onely to himselfe?
A09402the affections of mens hearts?

A09402where doe we finde it in any part of the word of God, that scratching should be vsed?

A50202( the day forgotten) at Evening, the said Mary heard a voice at the door of her Dwelling, saying, What do you here?
A5020223. so that it seems the Devils are driven away by Sounds, and why not then by Words, or Fumes, or Herbs?
A50202Alice asked her how she should satisfie her Brother that this was no Cheat or Delusion of her Phansie?

A70086And have been known to use Spells and Charms?
A70086And have not men been seen to do things which are above humane Strength, that no man living could do without Diabolical Assistances?

A091186. and lastly, who it is they do ● suspect, and vpon what good grounds?
A09118And did not Gods Angell smite Herod, causing Wormes to eate him to death?
A09118And did not such as vsed curious Arts, euen Magicke, turne to God and beleeue?
A09118And if God be against them, what may they looke for in the end?
A09118And lastly, that being giuen ouer of God vnto Satans temptation in this kinde, how can they resist?
A09118And what was Manasseh, but an Idolater, and an obseruer of times,& so fell to Witchery, and to such as had familiars?
A09118And with vs, what are they which regard these sorts, but ● ither superstitious Papists, or Neuterals, or Atheists?
A09118Are the friends, father, mother, brethren, sisters and such as are neere, and dayly attend the affl ● cted in their fits?
A09118B ● ● here 〈 … 〉 be demanded, How Cou ● ● ● ● fe ● ● s may be discouered?
A09118Be ● ● quisitiue of the grounds leading the Complainant, why he thinketh himselfe, or any of his, to be bewitched?
A09118But where?
A09118But you will perhaps heere aske, how one may know that Satan is the onely Agent, without the consent of a Witch?
A09118Did not our late King Iames, by his wisedome, learning, and exp ● rience, discouer diuers counterfeits?
A09118How long may people be thus vexed by Satan?

A09118How they be in their fits?
A09118How, when and where, and vpon what occasion the paine hap ● ed to him or her?
A09118If any arke why Satan so laboureth for this Couenant?
A09118If it be asked, Who these be, that thus are by a secret league workers by Satan?
A09118If there were no Witches, what neede these lawes?
A09118If they haue searched and found any, then how they know it from a naturall marke?
A09118If they suspect any, then vpon what grounds?
A09118In hearing the party to be il, whether he or she boast any thing, or reioyced thereupon, with the reasons thereof?
A09118Is this a good and Christian remedy, wherewith the Deuill is so well pleased?
A09118It may be here asked, why Satan will not vrge these, to make a more open league?
A09118Lastly, whether any search hath beene made, to find the marke?
A09118May not a Deuill and a good Angel be together in one man?
A09118May not one Deuill counterfeit two voices, as well as one man can, very artificially, three or foure, one after another?
A09118Now what other can that be, with whom the Inchanter is in league, but the Diuell?
A09118The euill which in the end will ensue to such as hearken to these; what got Saul by going to them?
A09118The testimony of a Wizard, the cunning man or woman; this may be a great presumption: for who can better discouer a Witch, then a witch?
A09118Then concerning the suspected, what hee or she is, and why thought to be Witches?
A09118To haue made any pictures?
A09118Touching the afflicted person, what his conuersation is; and whether there be any probabilitie of counterfeiting?
A09118Vpon what grounds they haue thus accused the said partie?

A09118What sorts of persons may the Diuell possesse?
A09118What the life and course of such hath been?
A09118What then?
A09118What they haue reported of the suspected partie?
A09118What they think of the suspected party, his or her life and conuersation?
A09118What they thinke of the disease, whe ● her natural, or by the diuel, or whether the party doth not counterfeit, and their reasons euery way?
A09118When the Deuill is in one, how he may be cast out?
A09118Whether the Diuels be willing to depart easily out of the possessed?
A09118Whether they euer found the suspected in any extasie or trance, when& where?
A09118Whether they haue desired to haue something belonging to the afflicted, before the same party were afflicted?
A09118Whether they haue had the iudgement of some learned and iudicious Physician, touching the nature of the disease?
A09118Whether they haue seen the party or parties in their fits, and how often?
A09118Whether they haue seene them with any other suspected of Witchcraft, and to haue secretly receiued any thing from them, and what it was?
A09118his or her crying out of the said suspected in the fits or trances;& of his after accusing the suspected out of the fits?
A09118or if the disease be not naturall, yet whether Satan may not mixe with it his supernaturall power, beyond the force of the disease?
A09118or knowne them to haue vsed charmes or spels?
A09118or to haue vsed any other tricks of Witchcrafts?
A09118or whether the affliction bee not from some naturall cause?
A09118or whether the suspected hee or shee did get any thing, to send or to carry to the foresaid afflicted, and what fell out thereupon?
A09118or whether there bee any counterfeiting herein?
A09118what vnderstanding or memory they retaine, and with what apparitions their minds be troubled?
A09118whether it bee not rather from his owne feare, then from any other cause?
A289083. Who can look upon their crawling and hanging about upon the Bed- post and the Walls, without plainly discerning the Cloven- foot of fascination?
A2890842, whether the Parable were spoken unto all, or only to the Disciples and Apostles, Lord, speakest thou this unto us, or even unto all?

A41303But how can such a Commonwealth be generated?
A41303But if all things were common by Nature, how could there be any bargain?
A41303But now the Doubt will be, what the Common People, or vulgus, out of Parliament, have to do to chuse Laws?
A41303But what is this to what the People have done?
A41303But why doth he call it an Usufructuary Right?

A41303Though the rebellious Tribes offered Conditions to Rehoboam; where can we find, that for like Conditions not performed, all Israel deposed Samuel?
A41303To the Text, Where the word of a King is, there is Power, and who may say unto him, What dost thou?
A41303V. If it be demanded what is meant by the word People?
A41303Where is there any Condition of any humane Law expressed?

A41303and if all be not Conquerours, how can it be a Democratie by Conquest?
A41303and if by the direction of such Law onely he must govern, where is the Legislative power, which is the chief of supream power?

A41303and what form is he of?
A41303being himself constrained to receive it of them, unto whom himself gave it?
A41303can he shew that ever any Monarch was so gracious or kind- hearted as to lay down his lawful power freely at his Subjects feet?
A41303for if every man Covenant with every man, who shall be left to be the Representative?
A41303hath not every one in the state of Nature a Right to Sovereignty before Conquest, which onely puts him in possession of his Right?
A41303if All must be Representatives, who will remain to Covenant?
A41303is an after- condescent all one with a fundamental contract, with original and radical constitution?

A32847Why stand we in jeopardy every hour?
A32847Why then is Dust and Ashes proud, when those ● eav''nly Spirits so much abase themselves?
A32847[ Quaeris nomen ejus Naturae?

A32847— Nay, what will become of all the spiritual and invisible World?
A32847— Or dare he presume to limit the Almighty?
A32847— Well, but the great difficulty remains: How can an immaterial act upon or move a material?

A19295But hath not Sathan( I pray you) in this Couenant with the Wltch, a further reach, to deceiue others also?
A19295But may not this his policie extend it selfe also vnto others?
A19295Could not haue preserued themselues from those fearefull plagues?
A19295Did not wee communicate our Studies together?
A19295Do not their desperate courses plainely discouer to whom they doe belong?
A19295Do they not say vnto the stockes thou art my Sauiour, and to the stone thou hast redeemed mee?
A19295Doe not they renue their Idolatrous Crosses, to encrease their stony hearts?
A19295Doe they not runne from the liuing to the dead?
A19295Doe they not still dote after stockes and stones?
A19295Doe wee not for our owne sakes respect the Blesser?
A19295Doth he not prouoke vs hereby to rob God of his glorie, in ascribing that vnto the place, which is proper onely to his Maiesty?
A19295Doth not Satan hereby take away the benefite of priuate prayer which indeed is the life and touch- stone of the publike?
A19295Doth not our gracious God tender some light vnto vs out of this darknesse?
A19295Doth not this argue, that not for conscience sake, but for our owne respects Iustice is executed, Sathans power is oppugned?
A19295Doth not this exalt her in the place of God, prouoke the people to feare and loue her,& c?
A19295For did not my God exercise mee vsually with continuall buffetings of Satan, that so I might be better enabled to discouer his sleights to others?
A19295For doe wee yet feare those Withes, whom wee conclude to bee harmelesse, hurting rather by our infidelitie, then any power of satan, or in themselues?
A19295Hath hee not ordained the Magistrate and the Minister for the seasonable ouerthrow of Anti- christs kingdome?
A19295Hath not hee vsed mee as an instrument, though most vnworthy, to comfort others according to the comforts that haue abounded vnto mee?
A19295Hath not the Blesser, more Proselites and Patients then the Physition; yea then the conscionable Preacher?
A19295Hath not the Lord enabled mee to discouer the practise of Antichrist in that hellish Plot of the Gunpowder- treason?
A19295Hath not the god of this world blinded them, that they can not obey the truth?
A19295Haue not my meditations and experience beene faithfully stored vp to this end?
A19295How by this security prepared to suddaine destructiō?
A19295How is the deceiued soule drunkē in security?
A19295If there be but one thing wanting, will all the rest any whit auaile vs?
A19295If wee beleeue, shall wee not see greater things then these?
A19295Insteed of going to the Wise- man, is it not now time to make vp thy accounts, to make thy peace with him?
A19295Is it not a plaine worship, yea Idolatrie which we commit with her?
A19295Is it not our great preuiledge to command Satan?
A19295Is it not rather a seruice vnto the Diuell then vnto God?
A19295Is not Satan the lord of their harts, while they serue God but with their lips?
A19295Is not his wisedome wonderfull to take the wise in their owne craftinesse?
A19295Is not subiection and homage performed vnto him, euen in them all?
A19295Is not the Good Witch respected, because she supplies these?
A19295Is not the Prophet a snare vpon Mispath?
A19295Is not this a plaine badge of of that man of sinne, that sonne of perdition?
A19295Is not this an apparant euidence of it subiection to Satan?
A19295Is there any more sacrifice left for sinne for such, but euen violent 〈 ◊ 〉 to consume the aduersaries?
A19295Is there not a God in Israel that wee must runne to Beelzebub the Prince of darkenesse for helpe?
A19295It is you that cast out diuells by the help of Beelzebub, and would you excuse your selues by condemning of me?
A19295It will then be demanded, What detections and presumptions lawful wee may haue to discouer a Witch?
A19295May hee not deceiue vnstable soules more desperately?
A19295May wee not conclude, that such absolute subiection as is giuen vnto man, is wholy taken from God, and giuen to the Diuell?
A19295May wee not hence learne the deepenesse of Sathan?
A19295May wee not hence learne wonderfull things?
A19295Nay seeing these meanes, can not preserue, Why may we not seeke to other?
A19295Nay where are our Wits and common sence?
A19295Nay, though wee make profession to seeke to GOD alone in our troubles; yet when it comes to the Pinch, doe wee not runne vnto the Deuill?
A19295Now they must runne to her; help must be had, and what more ready then the cunning woman, especially seeing she doth it with so little cost?
A19295Oh Adulterous and faithlesse Generation, how long will they prouoke the Lord?
A19295Shal not all Idolatry come to the blocke?
A19295Shall it not prouoke vs to hunger after our dissolution, that so we may freely and continually glorifie our GOD in his blessed kingdome?
A19295Shall it not send vs vnto Christ, for the daily purifying of our hearts by faith in his precious bloud?
A19295Shall it not weane vs from the loue of this world: seeing no place so holy, no meanes so sacred, but by Sathans policie they may be abused?
A19295Shall not Anti- christ that great Coniurer, likewise be confounded?
A19295Shall not euen all things turne to their good?
A19295Shall not this make for the confirmation of our faith, that the Lord will tread Satan vtterly ynder our feete?
A19295Shall not this teach vs to trie our publike worship by this touch- stone of the heart, and not the place?
A19295Shall not this winne vs to watch seriously ouer our thoughts and secret purposes?
A19295Shall wee now consider a little how Satan deceiues by this subiection?
A19295Surely seeing God is glorifyed in confessing of our sinnes, shall not the deuils rise vp in iudgement against vs?
A19295Surely, neuer more need to display and confound these practises, and yet to name them, is sufficient to confute them: Which are they?
A19295That we relie vpon Physicke: therefore why not on these charmes?
A19295Thus is the Witch deceiued by this familiaritie with Satan: And ● … th not this also proue a snare vnto others?
A19295Was there not a time when I admired some in the Vniuersitie fam ● zed in that skill?
A19295What may be the meanes heereto?
A19295What will not the soule part with to enioy the present payment?
A19295Where is our Faith in God?
A19295Whether our GOD ● ee not able to recompence any euill from the Creature, whatsoeuer?
A19295Whether the Good Witch can hurt: and the hurting Witch can help?
A19295Whither hee can not turne it to our great good?
A19295Who may not trie himselfe hereby whether he be in the faith or not?
A19295Who will not daily striue and endeuour to make himselfe thus manifest vnto God and to his owne conscience?
A19295and hath not the Lord giuen this gracious occasion thereunto?
A19295and profound to deceiue?
A19295do wee say that Witches haue no power to hurt by Satan; And yet doe wee runne to those for helpe?
A19295doth hee not preuaile more effectually to our ensnaring and destruction?
A19295doth their damnation sleepe, that so turne the grace of God into wantonnesse?
A19295especially seeing hee will not faile to offer his helpe, and that vpon very faire and seemingly equal termes?
A19295how long shall we halt betweene two opinions?
A19295may not they teach vs to yeeld more obedience to the Gospell?
A19295nay, doth not this nourish this conceit in their mindes, that they haue no soules, or else, that they are mortall?
A19295or do you measure me by them?
A19295shall Shall it not still round vs in the eare, to take heede of hypocrisie?
A19295shall it not make for our glory, to hurt and helpe at our pleasure?
A19295the wedge of golde our hope?
A19295was not this skill proposed and canuased in common?
A26477& c.) And where do we read in Holy Writ( or common History that saver of truth) that men by Devils could do such things really?
A264771 Some Ministers for want of due examining of the Scriptures, have taught in the Pulpits unwarily?
A2647710 Where is it written, that there are any other sorts of Witches than such as are there described?
A2647710.13, 14. was not this the sin of Manasses, where he is blamed for using Witchcrafts, when he made Juda and Jerusalem go astray to Idols?
A2647714 It is written, shall there be evill in a City and the Lord hath not done it?
A2647718.10, 11 where all sorts of witches are nominated by nine terms of description?
A2647718.10, 11. but which of these can we call him?
A2647718.10, 11. where all sorts of Witches are spoken of, why were they to be cut off and destroyed?
A2647719. and other places of Scripture; are there not several Rules set down for the trying of Murther?
A264772 Where is it written, that Witches have Imps sucking of their bodies?
A2647723, 24. what was it but pulling down the Idols, with their Adjuncts, Oraclers, and South- sayers, that were the Idol Priests that seduced the people?
A2647725. it is said, they did in like manner by their inchantments; Why with their Inchantments?
A2647726. fare- well Sir, the Spirit of God be your familiar Spirit to guide you in the truth: Non quis?
A264773 Where is it written, that Witches have biggs for Imps to suck on?
A264774 The false reports that are commonly raised in that kinde concerning Witches?
A264774 Where is it written, that the Devill setteth privy marks upon Witches, whereby they should be known or searched out?
A264775 Where is it written, that the tryall of a Witch should be by sinking or swimming in the water?
A264776.9, 10. crying, How long Lord, holy and true, will it be ere thou avenge our bloud upon them that dwell upon the earth?
A26477Also what Scripture saith, that Biggs or privie Marks are signs or trials of Witches?
A26477And what consequence is here?
A26477And when the woman saw Samuel,& c. Here perhaps you wil say, it is plain she saw Samuel?
A26477And why is not this Exposition true, that she only pretended that she saw Samuel, to bring about her cousening imposture?
A26477Another Objection is; But Samuel talked with Saul?
A26477Are those Imps bodies or spirits?
A26477But how should she describe a man so like Samuel?
A26477But what Logician will not say it is an absurdity to draw a Conclusion, and ground an opinion, from the bare signification of words?
A26477But you will say, that the Scripture saith, Samuel said unto Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me?
A26477Canst thou restrain the sweet influence of the Pleiades, or canst thou loose the bonds of Orion?
A26477Did he set up a familiar Spirit?
A26477First, Tell we where a Witch did, or could kill a man in Scripture?
A26477Further, if it had not been a meer delusion to blinde the eyes of Saul, why must Samuel bee described an old man cloathed in a mantle?
A26477God speaking of his own mighty work saith, By what way is the light parted, which scattereth the East wind upon the earth?
A26477Hath God given nine several descriptions of Witchcraft at once?
A26477Here may arise a Question, Whether every one that curseth his Neighbour be a Witch or not, according to this Sixth description in the text?
A26477Here may arise another Question, Whether was Balaam a Witch or not, as some have supposed?
A26477I say then, how little credit ought Ministers or other men to give to flying Reports, when they themselves may so easily be deluded?
A26477If Christ shall say, Depart from me yee workers of iniquity, and shodders of innocent bloud?
A26477Juglers, Wise men, and Magicians all at once?
A26477Now what was more certain than that the Kingdom should be rent from Saul?
A26477O foolish England, who hath bewitched you, that you should not obey the truth?
A26477O foolish Galathians who hath bewitched you, that you should not obey the truth?
A26477Sed quid?
A26477Shall they ask counsel of the dead for them that are living?
A26477Shall they ask counsel of the dead for them that are living?
A26477Some may object and say, If Witches were only false Prophets, then all false Teachers are Witches?
A26477The Angel said, Go with the men; what is the meaning of this, go not, and yet go so often repeated?
A26477This doubtless must be understood of those that are unjustly slain, and who are they, but such as are slain by wrongful accusations?
A26477VVhat Scripture had the Pope for this?
A26477VVhat least inkling have we of these things in all the Scriptures?
A26477VVhat will it avail at the latter day, that yee have preached, and prayed, and spread forth your hands, and made great stir in pretence of Religion?
A26477VVhence received the Church of England this Doctrin?
A26477Was not this Sauls Idolatry, when he sought to the Witch of Endor?
A26477What Tricks of Activity have they shewed, either in Fayers or Markets, or in publick, or in private?
A26477What did Saul go to the Pythonist of Endor for?
A26477What sawest thou, and what form and fashion is he of?
A26477What shall not be done to bring the Popes ends to pass?
A26477Where also is that foolish Doctrin of Imps, sucking of men and women Witches become?
A26477Whether do not some preferre the mad imaginations of Cornelius Agrippa and others, before the Scriptures, for the defending their opinions?
A26477Which is best sense?
A26477Why did he cause the King to command them all to Mount Carmel?
A26477Why do Idols, and Witch- crafts, and Witches come in rolling together so thick in this place?
A26477Why was it said the Witch- crafts of Jesabel?
A26477Without God was nothing made that was made; who then made those Biggs, or Teats, and who made the bodies of those Devils called Imps?
A26477Without God was nothing made, who then maketh these winds?
A26477and shall not we study and contemplate upon it?
A26477and to uphold such errours contrary to Scripture, what is this but meer prevarication with the truth, and resisting Gods holy Spirit of truth?
A26477and what say you to that Author?
A26477and where do we read in Scripture that God permits it?
A26477and why were they forbidden by God, and set in the Catalogue of Witches?
A26477as likewise Eli ● as the Sorcerer?
A26477but alas, how, and where have those poor souls that are commonly hanged for Witches seduced the people to Idolatry?
A26477but if such times of tyrannous Inquisition come, do they that have had a hand in this president think they shall escape it, or their Posterity?
A26477could they by the help of Satan do any thing truly?
A26477did not Pharaoh call them together without privie search, or inquiry?
A26477did not Saul banish all the Witches as people openly known, and professing the Art of Augury, and their several cousening practices?
A26477did not their madness come to light?
A26477doth it therefore follow that a Witch can do it, because God did it?
A26477for if it be natural to the Witch to bewitch others, what needeth she then to seek help of the Devil to do that which she can do by nature?
A26477for when they say unto you, Ask counsel of Oraclers, and South- sayers, that whisper and mutter, should not a people ask counsel of their God?
A26477hee taught Balak to lay a stumbling- block before the people, was that the part of a Prophet?
A26477if bodies, then who made them?
A26477one that had a familiar Spirit; or did be set up an Oracle?
A26477or by biggs or privy marks, or suspition of people, to be signes of a Witch?
A26477or else how should those things be, or come to pass?
A26477or meerly to work lying Wonders, and dissemble the Miracles that God wrought by Moses?
A26477or more plainly, Sir, do you not think the party is bewitched?
A26477or that God permits the Devil to be at the command of a Witch?
A26477or that a Witch can kill by Witchcraft, or hurt either body or goods, by Witchcraft, by the Devills help, either by Gods permission or without?
A26477or that any man or woman hath any mark upon their body any more than natural, or by some disease or hurt, which is preternatural?
A26477or where do we read in Scripture, that Witches were such as did meet to worship the Devil?
A26477shall they ask counsel of the dead for them that are living?
A26477shew me one that intimateth the Witching of Men or Cattel to death?
A26477that is, an old man cloathed in a mantle?
A26477they translate it, Is not this the cup by which my Master divineth?
A26477unless yee will bring it in abruptly by head and shoulders, what coherence is there?
A26477was it that she might help him kill the Philistians, or meerly for Augury or Divination?
A26477was it to kill any Man or Beast by their cunning?
A26477was not Simon Magus the like?
A26477were not Pharaohs Magicians seducers of Pharaoh, and the people, from God?
A26477were not Pharaohs Witches called Prastigiatores& magi, openly known?
A26477were not the Witchcrafts of Jezabel known to be her delusions that she wrought by the Priests of Baal, to seduce the people?
A26477were not the Witchcrafts of Manasses open actions, that made Juda and Jerusalem to go astray?
A26477were they real Miracles?
A26477what answer you to this?
A26477what did Pharaoh call his Witches the Magicians before him for?
A26477what madnesse is this?
A26477what shall one or two mens opinions be preferred before the common tenent of all men?
A26477what spirit had the Maid that followed Paul?
A26477what was she more than a Diviner?
A26477what will you deny the Scriptures?
A26477whence came this darkness and blinde errour, but from the Pope, that grand Witch that hath bewitched all Nations?
A26477where is any such description of a Witch in the Scripture?
A26477where then do we read of a Witch by suspicion, or to be tried by presumptions, or suspicions, or privie marks, or other signs that are mans invention?
A26477which is said to have the spirit of Python, was it more than a cousening spirit of Divination, for gain?
A26477who hath been led after them for Divinations, and Southsayings?
A26477why then is their Craft counted so dangerous?
A26477yea flat contrary to the Scriptures?
A19294& c. And who are they that are freed from Sathans power, are they not onely the faithfull?
A19294& c. Doth not this conuince such as liue in that profane and fearefull manner, as if there were no God to Iudge them, no diuell to torment them?
A192941 May not this bee a stumbling blocke to the Separation, to renounce our Assemblies, when Witches, yea the deuill and all, can Lord it therein?
A192941 Not being daintie to question with them, What is that doth discontent?
A192942 And secondly, there can be no certaine Rules giuen of those things, which are not knowne: Now, who knoweth the particular estate of all the Starres?
A192942 Doth not the Blesser require this Couenant of her Proselites, shee will helpe them: if they beleeue in her, that she can doe them good?
A192942 If it be alleaged, that What is fore- told by Astrologie, vsually fals out true, and therefore why may we not be informed hence?
A192944 Doth not this iustly confound that, common delusion, That there is no hell, but to be in debt, in prison?
A19294AND doth he not also by this his sayned subiect on to the Witch deceiue the Vnbeleuing world?
A19294And consider we seriously of the Loue of God, in Iesus Christ; who if hee haue prouided heauen for vs, will hee deny vs these things?
A19294And did not carnall wisedome strike the chiefe stroake heerein?
A19294And doth he not prosecute this his designe, in the other Ceremonies, whereby he obligeth these miserable wretches yet faster vnto him?
A19294And doth not Art giue some colour and shew heerevnto?
A19294And doth not Satan also deceiue by forged meanes?
A19294And doth not Satan most cunningly and dangerously shroud himselfe vnder this Art?
A19294And doth not Sathan, when hee pretends to doe most good, then doe most hurt?
A19294And doth not the Lord very wonderfully discouer our shifts, and confound our painted shewes, euen by these euill Angels which hee sends amongst vs?
A19294And doth not the iust and holy God, by this diuersitie and restraint of Satans power, accomplish most wisely his iust wrath vpon the wicked?
A19294And doth not their example harden the Papist in their Idolatry?
A19294And hath not Satan another dangerous fetch in this subiection?
A19294And hath not the Lord in this affliction of his Saints, some further vse for the stumbling blocke of an vnbeleeuing Generation?
A19294And haue I not often Vowed to glorifie God in this behalfe?
A19294And haue we not hence matter of Triall, both for our priuate, and generally for the Church of Christ?
A19294And here it is enquired, Whether the Witch haue power to afflict the childe of God, and how farre: with the vses thereof?
A19294And is it likely that they which could haue created these frogges, could not also haue destroyed the lice?
A19294And is it not then a word in due season for our present edification?
A19294And is not Sathans cunning the more dangerous, in that he is content to hold the wicked but by one string?
A19294And is not our belly then our god?
A19294And is not this a place famous for the pride and glorie of the Holy Mountaine?
A19294And may not Satan hide heereby his assistance more dangerously?
A19294And may wee not heere learne many profitable things?
A19294And shall I hold my peace in this day of good- tydings?
A19294And shall not the Lord preserue his Anoynted to burne the whore with fire, and make her desolate?
A19294And shall not this mercie of our God bee had in euerlasting remembrance?
A19294And shall not this teach vs especially to procure this shield of Faith, that so we may beate backe the fierie darts of the Diuell?
A19294And surely why could they not as well haue remoued such as Moses made, as well as they had power to make the same?
A19294And was I not there enioyned by a necessity to the discouerie of this Brood?
A19294And was not my Yonger Studies subiect to this tentation?
A19294And was there not another means heerein to set vp this Art, in that age of Knowledge, and greater Ciuility?
A19294And what difference then between the wicked and godlie?
A19294And what if it please our mercifull God to take vs to himselfe by this strange affliction doth not his exceeding mercie shine heerein?
A19294And what may wee deeme of the common Idolatrie of all sorts?
A19294And when this gappe is once opened, how is sinne committed with greedinesse?
A19294And would Samuel, think you, suffer Saul to adore him?
A19294And yet doth not the Lord on the other side reiect our confidence that so our owne tongues and waies may fall vpon vs?
A19294Are they not appoynted to perdition that thus crucifie the Lord of life?
A19294Are they not of their father the Diuell, because his workes they doe, are they not running headlong to Hell, by their desperate impenitencie?
A19294But hath not Sathan( I pray you) in this Couenant with the Witch, a further reach, to deceiue others also?
A19294But may not this his policie extend it selfe also vnto others?
A19294Could not haue preserued themselues from those fearefull plagues?
A19294Did not wee communicate our Studies together?
A19294Do not their desperate courses plainely discouer to whom they doe belong?
A19294Do they not say vnto the stockes thou art my Sauiour, and to the stone thou hast redeemed mee?
A19294Doe not they renue their Idolatrous Crosses, to encrease their stony hearts?
A19294Doe they not runne from the liuing to the dead?
A19294Doe they not still dote after stockes and stones?
A19294Doe wee not for our owne sakes respect the Blesser?
A19294Doth he not prouoke vs hereby to rob God of his glorie, in ascribing that vnto the place, which is proper onely to his Maiesty?
A19294Doth not Satan hereby take away the benefite of priuate prayer which indeed as the life and touch- stone of the publike?
A19294Doth not our gracious God tender some light vnto vs out of this darknesse?
A19294Doth not this argue, that not for conscience sake, but for our owne respects Iustice is executed, Sathans power is oppugned?
A19294Doth not this exalt her in the place of God, prouoke the people to feare and loue her,& c?
A19294For did not my God exercise mee vsually with continuall buffetings of Satan, that so I might be better enabled to discouer his sleights to others?
A19294For doe wee yet feare those Withes, whom wee conclude to bee harmelesse, hurting rather by our infidelitie, then any power of satan, or in themselues?
A19294Hath hee not ordained the Magistrate and the Minister for the seasonable ouerthrow of Anti- christs kingdome?
A19294Hath not hee vsed mee as an instrument, though most vnworthy, to comfort others according to the comforts that haue abounded vnto mee?
A19294Hath not the Blesser, more Proselites and Patients then the Physition; yea then the conscionable Preacher?
A19294Hath not the Lord enabled mee to discouer the practise of Antichrist in that hellish Plot of the Gunpowder- treason?
A19294Hath not the god of this world blinded them, that they can not obey the truth?
A19294Haue not my meditations and experience beene faithfully stored vp to this end?
A19294How by this security prepared to suddaine destructiō?
A19294How is the deceiued soule drunkē in security?
A19294If there be but one thing wanting, will all the rest any whit auaile vs?
A19294If wee beleeue, shall wee not see greater things then these?
A19294Insteed of going to the Wise- man, is it not now time to make vp thy accounts, to make thy peace with him?
A19294Is it not a plaine worship, yea Idolatrie which we commit with her?
A19294Is it not our great preuiledge to command Satan?
A19294Is it not rather a seruice vnto the Diuell then vnto God?
A19294Is not Satan the lord of their harts, while they serue God but with their lips?
A19294Is not his wisedome wonderfull to take the wise in their owne craftinesse?
A19294Is not subiection and homage performed vnto him, euen in them all?
A19294Is not the Good Witch respected, because she supplies these?
A19294Is not the Prophet a snare vpon Mispath?
A19294Is not this a plaine badge of of that man of sinne, that some of perdition?
A19294Is not this an apparant euidence of it subiection to Satan?
A19294Is there any more sacrifice left for sinne for such, but euen violent fire to consume the aduersaries?
A19294Is there not a God in Israel that wee must runne to Beelzebub the Prince of darkenesse for helpe?
A19294It is you that cast out diuells by the help of Beelzebub, and would you excuse your selues by condemning of me?
A19294It will then be demanded, What detections and presumptions lawful wee may haue to discouer a Witch?
A19294May hee not deceiue vnstable soules more desperately?
A19294May wee not conclude, that such absolute subiection as is giuen vnto man, is wholy taken from God, and giuen to the Diuell?
A19294May wee not hence learne the deepenesse of Sathan?
A19294May wee not hence learne wonderfull things?
A19294Nay seeing these meanes, can not preserue, Why may we not seeke to other?
A19294Nay where are our Wits and common sence?
A19294Nay, though wee make profession to seeke to GOD alone in our troubles; yet when it comes to the Pinch, doe wee not runne vnto the Deuill?
A19294Now they must runne to her; help must be had, and what more ready then the cunning woman, especially seeing she doth it with so little cost?
A19294Oh Adulterous and faithlesse Generation, how long will they prouoke the Lord?
A19294Shal not all Idolatry come to the blocke?
A19294Shall it not prouoke vs to hunger after our dissolution, that so we may freely and continually glorifie our GOD in his blessed kingdome?
A19294Shall it not send vs vnto Christ, for the daily purifying of our hearts by faith in his precious bloud?
A19294Shall it not weane vs from the loue of this world: seeing no place so holy, no meanes so sacred, but by Sathans policie they may be abused?
A19294Shall not Anti- christ that great Coniurer, likewise be confounded?
A19294Shall not euen all things turne to their good?
A19294Shall not this make for the confirmation of our faith, that the Lord will tread Satan vtterly ynder our feete?
A19294Shall not this teach vs to trie our publike worship by this touch- stone of the heart, and not the place?
A19294Shall not this winne vs to watch seriously ouer our thoughts and secret purposes?
A19294Shall wee now consider a little how Satan deceiues by this subiection?
A19294Surely seeing God is glorifyed in confessing of our sinnes, shall not the deuils rise vp in iudgement against vs?
A19294Surely, neuer more need to display and confound these practises, and yet to name them, is sufficient to confute them: Which are they?
A19294That we relie vpon Paysicke: therefore why not on these charmes?
A19294Thus is the Witch deceiued by this familiaritie with Satan: And doth not this also proue a snare vnto others?
A19294Was there not a time when I admired some in the Vniuersitie famozed in that skill?
A19294What may be the meanes heereto?
A19294What will not the soule part with to enioy the present payment?
A19294Where is our Faith in God?
A19294Whether our GOD bee not able to recompence any euill from the Creature, whatsoeuer?
A19294Whether the Good Witch can hurt: and the hurting Witch can help?
A19294Whither hee can not turne it to our great good?
A19294Who may not trie himselfe hereby whether he be in the faith or not?
A19294Who will not daily striue and endeuour to make himselfe thus manifest vnto God and to his owne conscience?
A19294and profound to deceiue?
A19294do wee say that Witches haue no power to hurt by Satan; And yet doe wee runne to those for helpe?
A19294doth hee not preuaile more effectually to our ensnaring and destruction?
A19294doth their damnation sleepe, that so turne the grace of God into wantonnesse?
A19294especially seeing hee will not faile to offer his helpe, and that vpon very faire and seemingly equal termes?
A19294how long shall we halt betweene two opinions?
A19294may not they teach vs to yeeld more obedience to the Gospell?
A19294nay, doth not this nourish this conceit in their mindes, that they haue no soules, or else, that they are mortall?
A19294or do you measure me by them?
A19294shall Shall it not still round vs in the eare, to take heede of hypocrisie?
A19294shall it not make for our glory, to hurt and helpe at our pleasure?
A19294the wedge of golde our hope?
A19294was not this skill proposed and canuased in common?
A42824& c. Thirdly, The Woman said, she saw Gods arising, a company of evil Spirits( so some interpret) and what did Samuel among them?
A42824( which was the term of familiarity that the Major used to call the Captain by) to whom I replied, What my Major?
A42824After these preliminary Interrogatories he desired him to tell him what he had seen in the Night?
A42824After this he examined him for what cause those other two Men were imprisoned?
A42824And are there not concomitant considerations here also?
A42824And be it so, will J. Webster say, what is all this to the purpose, when the Book of Tobit is Apocryphal, and consequently of no Authority?
A42824And being asked how she could think it was Florence Newton that did her this prejudice?
A42824And being asked how she knew she was thus carried about and disposed of, seeing in her fits she was in a violent distraction?
A42824And being asked the reason wherefore she cryed out so much against the said Florence Newton in her fits?
A42824And being asked whether she perceived at these times what she Vomited?
A42824And being demanded how she knew she was not well yet?
A42824And does not Witch, from wit and weet, signifie as well a wise woman, as I noted above?
A42824And does she not, I beseech you, put her Neb also into it sometimes, as into a Reed, as it is said of that Bird, and cry like a Butterbump?
A42824And he said unto her, What form is he of?
A42824And he said, Do you not see the Old Hag how she pulls me?
A42824And if after all this, Samuel was a K ● … e, or the Witch, or the Devil, what assurance can we have in interpreting of Scripture?
A42824And if blessed Souls are, or have been employed at any time, how is he so certain the real Samuel was not sent here?
A42824And if so, what interest could he serve in carrying on, or conniving at a juggling Design and Imposture?
A42824And now, Can the Sun borrow its Light from the bottomless Abyss?
A42824And that a Spirit may penetrate, possess, and actuate some determinate Body, and yet not be in that Body?
A42824And the King said unto her, Be not afraid: for what sawest thou?
A42824And then Goddard said, In the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, what would you have me to do?
A42824And they asked her what she spoke to, and what made the great noise?
A42824And those dissenters are ready to ask a reason, why they may not be sent in Messages to Earth, as well as those of the Angelical Order?
A42824And what is Melancholy but a natural Drunkenness when it serments?
A42824And when the substance of the Soul does so perpetually cease or perish, what I beseech you will become of Memory?
A42824And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice: and the woman spake to Saul, saying, Why hast thou deceived me?
A42824And why not as well that, as appoint the Prophet to meet the Messengers of Ahaziah when he sent to Beelzebub, 2 Kings 1?
A42824And why then should there be need of so much pumping to answer this Objection?
A42824And will he lend his Legions, to assist the Armies of his Enemy against him?
A42824Are you a good or a bad Spirit?
A42824Art thou come to torment us before the time?
A42824As for Mr. G. what opinion he hath of his own Gift, and how he came to know it?
A42824At last I said, In the Name of God, who is it, and what would you have?
A42824BUt did she not turn out her confederate Knave to act the part of Samuel?
A42824BUt was it not the Witch her self that acted all?
A42824BUt were not those Angels that so appeared, special Prophets, Divine Messengers, sometimes in Scripture confessedly called Angels?
A42824But Secondly, would God send Samuel at such a time, when he was seeking satisfaction from enchantment?
A42824But for a perverse Caviller or crazy Sceptick, what is it that will satisfie them?
A42824But how shall the power be known to be so, when we so little understand the capacities, and extent of the abilities of lower Agents?
A42824But it happening that the Woman of the house stood at the Door, he thought himself engaged to ride to her and ask how she did?
A42824But she had only said, An Old Man cometh up covered with a Mantle; This is but a very General Description, and why must that needs notify Samuel?
A42824But what Logical ear can bear a saying so absurd and abhorrent from all reason, that a Whole should not be divided into parts but into Wholes?
A42824But what did the Spirits do, were the Serpents, Blood and Frogs real or apparent only?
A42824But what ground was there for conjecture?
A42824But what is the incongruity, or what the wonder, if one in his condition should speak incongruously?
A42824But what necessity thereof that 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 should signifie Lamina?
A42824But what need more?
A42824But where got she the Mantle?
A42824Can Heat and Warmth flow in upon the World from the Regions of Sno ● … and Ice?
A42824Can any thing be more srantick or ridiculous than this passage of St. Paul, if there was no Spirit or Devil in the Damsel?
A42824Can it from thence, that Matter may be conceived without Cogitation, and Cogitation without Matter?
A42824Can there be any deduction or illation more close and coherent with the Premises?
A42824Could a meer Mad- man have done so?
A42824Could the Devil represent no other Old Man in a Mantle, or could none of the dead appear so but Samuel only?
A42824Did any come near to whisper this in their Ear?
A42824Do you remember the clap on your back when your Servant was pulling off your Boots in the Hall?
A42824Doth he think they were made for that purpose only to serve us?
A42824For can there be any thing more One than what has no parts, into which it may be discerped?
A42824For what communion hath Light with Darkness, or the Spirit of the HOLY ONE with those whose genius and ways are so unlike him?
A42824Goddard askt what cases?
A42824Had the Woman a Wardrobe of all Habits for all purposes?
A42824Had they a mind to go into the Swine?
A42824He askt again why she sat with one hand over the other?
A42824He being much affrighted and amazed, began to bless him, and at last asked her who she was, and what she wanted?
A42824He enquired if any thing were amiss with her hand?
A42824He immediately sent for the Prisoner and asked him in the first place whether he was born or had lived about Guilford?
A42824He replied, I am such a one?
A42824He seeing nothing, askt him whereabout it was?
A42824How applicable is this to the condition of Evil Spirits and their expectations?
A42824How are you regimented in the other World?
A42824How can therefore this newfangled Method of Cartesius convince us that this Supposition is false, and that the distribution is illegitimate?
A42824How could he imitate his Voice thus of a suddain, and they discoursed a very considerable time together?
A42824How could that confederate Knave change his own Face into the same figure, look, and mien that Samuel had, which was exactly known to Saul?
A42824How could the Cheat, or the Woman in another Room tell this?
A42824How doth that appear to be so certain?
A42824How shall one deal with these Men, and what will not their confidence affirm?
A42824How then can we be ignorant that she is somewhere, unless the Body itself be nowhere?
A42824Hurt, quoth he?
A42824I ask therefore here, By what vertue, or by what manner of way do the parts of so perfect a Solid cohere?
A42824I would fain know, whether this be not beyond the force of meer natural madness?
A42824If that were so, what then?
A42824Is it not evident from hence, that she had a Closet, how else should she come out?
A42824Is there any Balsom in the Cockatrices Egg?
A42824It hath indeed been a great dispute among Interpreters, whether the real Samuel was rai sed, or the Devil in his likeness?
A42824May it not therefore minister to others?
A42824May not they therefore be used in those Services?
A42824Mr. Hunt askt her, why then she would continue in such ill courses?
A42824No, says the Drummer, did you not hear of a Gentlemans House that was troubled with the Beating of Drums?
A42824Now, says he, how could Manasses make a Familiar Spirit, or make one that had a Familiar Spirit?
A42824Now, what did Saul make this respectful reverence to, if he saw nothing?
A42824Or how came those Mad- men to know, and utter such a great truth, which our Saviour did not presently publish, That he was the Son of God?
A42824Samuel ask''t why he had disquieted him to bring him up?
A42824Secondly, He enquired if he knew any of the Inhabitants of that Town or of the Neighbourhood?
A42824So that the genuine sense and Grammatical in this answer to, What form is he of?
A42824Surely as yet Saul and the woman are in the same Room; and being the woman askt, Whom shall I bring up unto thee?
A42824That towards Evening, the Door of the Prison shook, and she arose up hastily and said, What makest thou here this time a night?

A42824Then Goddard askt him, who was consederate with him in the said murder?
A42824Then Goddard said, What would you have me to do in this thing?
A42824Then he enquired, if he had ever heard of one Mr. Bower?
A42824Then it askt him whether he did not know him?
A42824Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up unto thee?
A42824Then the Apparition said, How stand cases at home?
A42824To make a due return to this, we must consider a great and difficult Problem, which is, What is a real Miracle?
A42824To which he said, should both of us come, or but one of us?
A42824To which she the said Elenor said why what hurt is that?
A42824Upon which instantly appeared a little Man in black Clothes to whom all made obeysance, and the little Man put his hand to his Hat, saying, How do ye?
A42824Was it possible that he should not perceive that it was not Samuel when they came to confer together, as they did?
A42824Was it to a Samuel in his fancy?
A42824Was there nothing now beyond the rate of ordinary Mad- men in this?
A42824What may this be?
A42824What of no Authority?
A42824What station do you hold?
A42824What stuff is this?
A42824What therefore do these Forms to the Body when they communicate to it their Esse?
A42824What thinks he of the Souls of Moses and Elias, at the transfiguration on the Mount?
A42824What, did they swallow the Wiars and Pictures?
A42824What, do they consult Jugglers and Hocus- Pocusses?
A42824Whence are you?
A42824Where is your abode?

A42824Which must be another Person distinct srom the Man himself, and who was that?
A42824Which when he came near, the Apparition spake to him with an audible voice these words, Are you afraid?
A42824Who but one that had taken too many drams of the Bottle could ever fall into such a fond conceit?
A42824Who joyned the Soul and Body again?
A42824Why hast thou disquieted me?
A42824Will the Prince of Darkness strengthen the Arm that is stretcht out to pluck his Usurpt Scepter, and his Spoils from him?

A42824and was not this he to whom Saul bowed?
A42824for the living,[ 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉] to the dead?
A42824or more Subtile than what does not onely penetrate Matter, but itself, or at least other Substances of its own kind?
A42824or their glorifyed Bodies without their Souls?
A42824or was it some short Cloak of her own, that she threw on him?
A42824or was this a raving fancy only?
A42824or, Can the Spirit of Life slow from the Venome of the Asp?

A653693. Who should have covered it with the mantle, which had it been buried with him, must in so long a time, have been rotten and consumed?
A65369Again how can Judah literally be a lions whelp, or Christ called the lion of the tribe of Judah?
A65369And again, Hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
A65369And again: Know ye not, that such a man as I can certainly divine, or make tryal?
A65369And as Solomon confesseth: But will God indeed dwell upon the earth?
A65369And as yet exaltest thou thy self against my people, that thou wilt not let them go?

A65369And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the Lord hath not spoken?
A65369And is his sucking now come to infusion and injection?
A65369And of the same judgment is Thomas Aquinas in these words: Propriè dicit Apostolus, quis vos fascinavit?

A65369But if it be supposed to be the Devil, how comes he to know contingencies so certainly?
A65369But should not thou rather believe this?
A65369But the great question will be, who are the Taylors that shape and frame them these vestments?
A65369But then why was it precisely done at that time, and not at any others?
A65369But what comes to pass?
A65369But what shall we say to that wonderful body, Image or Idolum of our selves, and other things that we behold in a mirrour or looking- glass?

A65369If the Devils or Witches have power to perform strange things, whether they do not bring them to pass by ● ere natural means, or otherwise?
A65369If this had been most probable, why did he bring in the other two, that are less probable?
A65369In like manner if the Heaven doth act upon the bodies of men, why may we not think that they may wrest their darts into stones?

A65369O foolish Galathians, who hath bewitched you, that you should not obey the truth?
A65369Of this passage Theophylact saith: Quomodo enim Daemones seipsos ejiciunt, quum magis inter se conveniant?
A65369Or must I believe that the souls of the wicked do wander, and make Apparitions here, because Mr. Glanvil and the Popish Writers tell me so?
A65369Or was it ever attested by any honest rational men, that were ear or eye- witnesses of such a bargain and contract?

A65369So what relation can Mr. Glanvil feign betwixt the Being of God and the Being of Angels or Spirits?
A65369The next thing is, he saith, be not afraid, what sawest thou?
A65369The words are, O foolish Galathians, who hath bewitched you, that you should not obey the truth?
A65369Then he maketh another absurd question, like a distracted Man in the house of Bethlem, saying, what form is he of?
A65369Though it might be granted that he used Divinations that were not lawful, yet what is that to a killing and murthering Witch?
A65369To which the Protestants answer: But who shall bear witness of these Apparitions, that they were not either feigned fables, or Satanical illusions?
A65369Well, grant it were so, what was the end that God used that restriction upon him at that time for?

A65369What is it then that the Devils say, I am the Soul of such a Monk?
A65369What was he deaf as well as blind?
A65369Where doth Mr. Glanvil find it mentioned in any part of Scripture?
A65369Where reads he or finds any such Divinity except in Popish Authors?
A65369Who can be afraid of a muzled and tyed up Mastive?

A65369Why should you not believe that of me, which you affirm of your own?
A65369and talk deceitfully for him?
A65369but that Witchmongers would bring in any allusion or Metaphor, though never so impertinent or incongruous?
A65369can I bring him back again?

A62397& c. Do you not think that S. Martin might be opposed to Bacchus?
A62397& c. Finally, is it possible for a man or woman to do any of those miracles expressed in my book, and so constantly reported by great Clerks?
A62397& c. Good Sir, is it not one manifest kind of Idolatry, for them that labour and are laden to come unto Witches to be refreshed?
A62397& c. His shape was in the woods: where else should it be?
A62397& c. Thirdly, Whence cometh the force of such words as raise the dead, and command Devils?
A62397* For the French- pox or the common kind of Pox, or both?
A62397* How can that be; when a spirit hath neither flesh, blood, nor bones?
A62397* Is it possible to be greater than S. Adelberts curse?
A62397Among Hospitals, Lepers, or Beggars?
A62397And I would know of S. Augustine, what became of them, whom Bodin''s transformed Wolves devoured?
A62397And after Bargain made, he demanded of the sick man, whether he had not at any home, whom he might assuredly trust?
A62397And again, if it were by Gods special providence and appointment, then why should it not be done by the hand of God, as it was in the story of Job?
A62397And as for Dreams, whatsoever credit is attributed unto them, proceedeth of folly; and they are fools that trust in them; for why?
A62397And by what persons?
A62397And doth not Joseph repeat those very words to Pharaohs officers, who consulted with him therein?
A62397And from that sleep, man shall not be raised, till the heavens be no more, according to this of David, Wilt thou shew wonders among the dead?
A62397And further he saith; Where is the vertue of the Gospel?
A62397And he said, I lay in her way like a log, and I made her run like fire, but I could not hurt her: And why so?
A62397And if men should live ever, what needed succession or heirs?
A62397And is it not even so, and worse, in the Common- wealth and Church of Popery?
A62397And is it not, by the opinion of all Philosophers, Physitians, and Divines, void of such vertue, as is imputed thereunto?
A62397And the Lord said, Wherewith?
A62397And then what is it that can not be done by words?
A62397And these forsooth must be the interrogatories, to wit; Whose Soul art thou?
A62397And what is their fortitude but to arm them to indure misery, grief, danger, and death it self?
A62397And what need I curry- favour with my most assured Friend?
A62397And why might not be do it himself, as well as Madam Sibylia?
A62397Are not my words even as it were fire?
A62397Are the words in Baptism spoken in vain?
A62397Are they all gone into Italy, because Masses are grown dear here in England?
A62397Art not thou the self same our Lord God?
A62397As for Birds, who is so ignorant that conceiveth not, that one flyeth one way, another another way, about their private necessities?
A62397BUt was this Man an Asse all this while?
A62397BUt what credit is to be attributed to such toyes and chances, which grow not of Nature, but are gathered by the superstition of the Interpreters?
A62397Be it as thou sayest, Dost thou not frustrate the grace of Gods Ordinance; namely Baptism?
A62397But if the hanging of St. Johns Gospel about the neck be so beneficial, how if one should eat up the same?
A62397But if they be never the better for it, being put into their ears, hour shall they be saved, by carrying it about their necks?
A62397But tell me in good faith, do you exactly understand Longation?
A62397But the maintainers of Witches omnipotency, say, Do you not see how really and palpably the Devil tempted and plagued Job?
A62397But what brought they to pass?
A62397But what did Balbine, think you?
A62397But where find they in Scriptures any such doctrine; And who certified them, that those appearances were true?
A62397But where was the young mans own shape all these three years, wherein he was made an Asse?
A62397But( I pray you) what Witchmonger now seeing one so afflicted as Job, would not say he were bewitched, as Job never saith?
A62397But* is it not daily read( saith he) and heard of all men?
A62397By what Priest?
A62397Did he complain of this counterfeit, or cause him to be punished?
A62397Did you not promise my neighbour mother Dutton to save and rescue her; and yet lo she is hanged?
A62397Do not the Muscovits, and Indian prophets at this day, like apes, imitate Esay?
A62397Dost thou use to draw poor guiltless women to the rack by these forged devises?
A62397Dost thou with such sentences judge others to be Hereticks, thou being more a Heretick than either Faustus, or Donatus?
A62397Doth he not deceive himself and others, and therefore is worthyly condemned for a Witch?
A62397Doth not Daniel the Prophet say, even in this case, It is the Lord only that knoweth such secrets, as in exposition of Dreams is required?
A62397Englished by Abraham Fleming: Regard no Dreams, for why?
A62397Entreth he into the body in one shape, and into the mind in another?
A62397Finally, if the Witch do it not, why should the Witch die for it?
A62397First they asked him, Whether he were one of them that had been buryed in the same place?
A62397First, I ask, What miracle was wrought by their passing through the fire?
A62397For in that case he saith, What have we here?
A62397For the which causes he fell upon her lustily, and at length threw her down to the ground, saying, Art thou come thou cursed Devil, art thou come?
A62397For thus( I say) the said Samuel speaketh, Wherefore dost thou asks of me, seeing the Lord is gone from thee, and is thine enemy?
A62397For when didst thou rise in the morning O Lucifer?
A62397Had not every City in all the Popes Dominions his several Patron?
A62397Had they not he- Idols and she- idols, some for men, some for women, some for beasts, some for fowls?
A62397He asked where she learned it: She said, of her Mother, who forbad her to tell any body thereof: He asked her how her Mother taught her?
A62397He said, Old Alice, old Alice: Which old Alice?
A62397He said, his name was Satan: We said, Who sent thee?
A62397He said, in Westwell: Where there?
A62397He saith to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring up?
A62397He was further asked, Whether he was damned or no; and if he were, for what cause, for what desert or fault?
A62397How chanceth it that we hear not of this bargain in the Scriptures?
A62397How common an opinion was it among the Papists, that all souls walked on the earth, after they departed from their bodies?
A62397How great?
A62397How hardly will this story suffer discredit, having testimony of such authority?
A62397How hath the Oyl or Pottage of a sodden child such vertue, as that a staffe anointed therewith, can carry folk in the air?
A62397How many?
A62397How unto tales and lies his ears attentive all they can?
A62397How would he have plagued the Devil that threw his God in the River to be drowned?
A62397How( said the King) canst thou do that?
A62397Howbeit, concerning the verity of this Prophesie, there be many disputable questions: First, Whether the battel were fought the next day?
A62397Howbeit, they asked him further, saying, Wilt thou return to these damsels, if we free thee from all concupiscence?
A62397I pray you, is not the converting of water into milk, as hard a matter as the turning of water into wine?
A62397I say, if it be so miserable, why do they place Summum bonum therein?
A62397If Pharaohs Magicians had made very Frogs upon a sudden, why could they not drive them away again?
A62397If our corporal ears be stopped, what can they hear or conceive of any external wisdom?
A62397If they could not hurt the Frogs, why should we think that they could make them?
A62397In Kenington: In what place?
A62397In Westwell, said he: What else hast thou done for her?
A62397In her bed: Where the fourth time?
A62397In the Court: Where the sixth time?
A62397In the field: Where the fifth time?
A62397In the figure of the letter, or in the understanding of the sense?
A62397In the garden, said he: Where the second time?
A62397In the hall: Where the third time?
A62397In the loft: How camest thou to her?
A62397In the water, where I cast her into the mote: Where the seventh time?
A62397In two bottels, said he: Where be they?
A62397Is there any probability that such would continue Witches?
A62397Is this thy Divinity?
A62397It was demanded, who should do the errand to the Popes Holiness?
A62397May a spiritual body become temporal at his pleasure?
A62397More than a year, said he: Where was that?
A62397Must he be religious or secular?
A62397My question is not( as many fondly suppose) Whether there be Witches, or nay?
A62397Nay, why do they not cast out the Devil that possesseth their own souls?
A62397O My God my God, look upon me, why hast thou forsaken me, and art so farr from my health, and from the words of my complaint?
A62397O thou Son of God, why comest thou to molest us( or confound us) before our time appointed?
A62397One old Witch might over- throw an Army Royal: and then what needed we any Guns, or wild- fire, or any other Instruments of war?
A62397Or a better Sowgelder than S. Anthony?
A62397Or a better Toothdrawer than S. Apolline?
A62397Or can a man go upon coals, and his feet net be scorched?
A62397Or how can she in the midst of such horrible tortures and torments, promise unto her self constancy; or forbear to confess any thing?
A62397Or is it not granted that they make none?
A62397Or may a carnal body become invisible?
A62397Or such a whore as S. Bridget?
A62397Or that our Witches, which can not do so much as counterfeit them, can kill cattel and other creatures with words or wishes?
A62397Or what needed such preparation of wars, or such trouble, or charge in that behalf?
A62397Or, an Asse to be the child of God, and God to be his Father, as it is said of man?
A62397Satan, said he: What doth old Alice call thee?
A62397Secondly, Whether all his sons were killed with him?
A62397Secondly, Whether those Spirits be of the same power that God is, who is everywhere, filling all places, and able to hear all men at one instant?
A62397The Cousener asked how old his Daughter was?
A62397The clouds are called the pillars of Gods tents, Gods chariots, and his pavillions: And if it be so, what Witch or Devil can make masteries thereof?
A62397The melancholick person musing her eat, asked him the cause why he so demeaned himself?
A62397Their potable liquor, which, they say, maketh Masters of that faculty, Is it not ridiculous?
A62397Then we asked him, What she did give him: He said, Her will, her will: What did she bid thee do?
A62397There is also some question in the Romish Church, Whether the Sacrament of the Altar is to be received before or after the Exorcism?

A62397said we: Many times, said he: Where first?
A62397said we: My servant, said he: What is his name?
A62397said we: Old Alice, said he: What other Spirits were with thee there?

A62397said we: Partner, said he: What doth she give thee?
A62397said we: Richard Ager, said he: Where dwelt the man and the child?
A62397said we: Richard, said he: What more?
A62397said we: The childs name was Edward, said he: What more then Edward?
A62397said we: Three, said he: Who are they?
A62397said we: To fetch her meat, drink, and corn, said he: Where hadst thou it?

A62397said we: Woltons wife, said he: Where did she dwel?
A62397said we?
A62397said we?
A62397that he slept?
A62397that they can change water into Wine: and, What is it to attribute to a Creature, the power and work of the Creator, if this be not?
A62397three, six, ten, twenty, thirty,& c?
A62397whether for Covetousness, or wanton lust, for Pride or want of Charity?
A62397whether it were to have the body now buryed in holy ground to be digged up again, and laid in some other place?

A07467A blind man is vnfit to raigne, and why?
A07467Adam vbi es?
A07467After this Verrine spake to Lewes and said h Adam vbi es?
A07467Afterward going out of the Church, and being followed by company, would you know( faith hee) where the Synagogue was held?
A07467And bid the Gentle- man propound what hee had thought to haue said; What is it( said hee) that you would bee resolued of?
A07467And continuing his speech to Christ Iesus hee said, What Lord?
A07467And continuing in his obstinary, Verrine asked him, vnhappy creature why answerest thou not?
A07467And directing his speech vnto God, hee said, Why diddest thou not rather chuse a Queene or an Empresse, then this worme here?
A07467And in another place he rendreth a reason of this, saying, Cui veritas comperta sine Deo?
A07467And speaking to the Priest, he said: Come your waies, adiure him in the name of Iohn, Peter, and Bernard ▪ what?
A07467And this they gaue vs in writing, and in schedules signed with their blood, yet for all this doest thou take them from vs?
A07467And thou Leuiathan the Arch- Doctor of h Hereticks, art thou not hee that bestowest vpon them the apparance and shew of light?
A07467And thou good Theise, who told thee, that hee that was crucified vpon the crosse with thee, was a King?
A07467And till this present thou diddest conceiue it was Louyse: is not this true?
A07467And turning himselfe to the Magician, hee said, what wilt thou that I doe?
A07467And what danger is there( say they) to command the Diuell?
A07467And what letteth it, but that all these things may concurre in one man?
A07467And what thinke yee?
A07467And why Lord?
A07467And why?
A07467Are you ignorant in what this pouerty of spirit consisteth?
A07467Are you such gallant doctors, and can you make no reply?
A07467Are you ● eadie to set open your heart to God, who hath created ● ou?
A07467Art thou ignorant what the Lord said to Peter?
A07467Art thou not vnhappie to beleeue that Louyse is the author and expresser of these things?
A07467As first, to what end haue you created a creature thus beautifull?
A07467At the euening Exorcismes Belzebub continued to torment Magdalene, and a litle after he said, What wilt thou?
A07467Belzebub answered, whence had''st thou notice of my returne?
A07467Blessed Spirit, where was the goodly beds with all the rich and pompous furniture which thou diddest prouide for thy Spouse?
A07467But O great God, why diddest thou not first recommend thy mother to Iohn, and Iohn vnto thy mother?
A07467But Verrine snatched away the booke by violence, and threw it to the ground, saying, What?
A07467But here may an obiection be made, how Spirits are able to frame vnto themselues such bodies at their own pleasure?
A07467But is it not true, haue not I humbled thee?
A07467But since( said the father) such is the pleasure of God, Why then resistest thou?
A07467But some one will obiect, what?
A07467But vpon the sudden Magdalene cryed out, Alacke poore Mary, what makest thou heere?
A07467But who seeth not that this is the craft and counterfaite weeping of Crocodiles, that is to say Diabolical fictions framed for deceit and cousonage?
A07467But will Aristotle dare to auow that this grosse and earthy humour is more excellent in a man, then his vnderstanding and reason?
A07467But you Sir, where doe you conceiue you are, in some wood or at some May- game?
A07467But you may obiect, how proue you that this is the will of God?
A07467Can you endure such an affront?
A07467Canst thou not let the poore woman suppe in quyet?
A07467Carreau answered, When a Captaine leadeth a band of Souldiers, they doe all follow him, and doe not you obey your Kings when they command you?
A07467Certainly Thomas thy God( vnto whom it is impossible that hee should tell a lie) hath said, that hee would rise the third day: and what?
A07467Darest thou sweare that thy doctrine is consonant vnto truth, as I wil sweare that whatsoeuer I haue here deliuered, proceedeth from the liuing God?
A07467Did I euer bid you worship Verrine?
A07467Did not God giue you a soule accompanied with the three goodly faculties thereof, that you might vse it and them to his glory?
A07467Diddest not thou( said Belzebub) affirme that God hath promised Paradise vnto thee?
A07467Doe men resist God, and am not I able to doe the same?
A07467Doe you renounce with your whole heart Belzebub and his adherents?
A07467Doest thou alwaies( Lord) present thy wounds vnto thy Father in the behalfe of sinners?
A07467Doest thou beleeue it, or doest thou not?
A07467Doest thou not know what is commonly said?
A07467Doest thou not know, that God doth alwaies worke order out of disorder?
A07467Doest thou not see, that God will take them vnto himselfe?
A07467Doest thou vse thus to baite mens soules with thy faire speeches, steeped in all alluring sweetnesse?
A07467Doth thy Order command thee to bee proud?
A07467FAther Francis Billet saying Masse, and being come to his memento, Belzebub cryed out foure times, Why x prayest thou for Magdalene?
A07467For how can that which happeneth vpon a set day, as vpon a Thursday, or the like, bee said to bee a dreame?
A07467For if worldly fathers are so loving, shall not God who hath created them, bee much more gracious and good then they?
A07467For to what purpose serue the commandements, if good workes be not necessary to saluation?
A07467For what are you but a compound of dust and ashes?
A07467For what importeth it whether hee entered into the body of a Serpent, or into a statue of marble?
A07467For why should any man conceite strangely of this point, since Simon Magus himselfe was carried in the ayre by Diuels?
A07467For why should the Diuell denie to doe such a thing, but at a set time, and should tye himselfe vnto this day and houre, rather then to any other?
A07467From whence could the Christians better know this then from the Scriptures?
A07467Good God what haue I miserable creature deserued to haue thy fauours doubled and heaped vpon me?
A07467Great God, thou hast many friends at thy table, but how is their number diminished when thou commest to suffer on the Crosse?
A07467Ha Michaelis( quoth Verrine) God hath vnloosed mee, and doest thou tie me vp?
A07467Ha, ha, if the Princes bee astonished and at their wits end, what shall the poore lackeies then doe?
A07467Hast thou neede of Christians?
A07467Hath not God then inst occasion to bee incensed against them?
A07467Haue I nothing to doe but to expose my sinnes to his knowledge?
A07467He also said to b Magdalene, Art not thou an accursed woman, that the Witches Sabbath is kept here?
A07467Hee cried ● ut: Cursed be In principio, If I were able to smother ● t, how willingly would I doe it?
A07467How Idle then are they that say, I can not be conuerted?
A07467How can it bee that so f great a God should be contained in such a little Host?
A07467How expedient then is it, that thou walke in the commandements of thy God, and that the Bride should be obseruant of her Spouse?
A07467How now Belzebub, wilt thou suffer thy slaue to tread thus disdainfully vpon thee?
A07467How then can all this be attributed to a melancholick humour?
A07467How vntrue is it that a man is to imitate God, and his Sonne Christ Iesus in all things?
A07467How wonderfull is this?
A07467I am the l Painter; shall not I mend this picture when it seemeth good vnto me?
A07467I confesse it, it is a truth, is it not sufficient that I haue confessed these to be present in the blessed Hoast?
A07467If a seruant obey his Master, how much more ought a childe so to doe?
A07467If then any one should be familiar with such furious beasts, might hee not well bee accounted mad and depriued of common sense?
A07467If then the answeres of Diuels are inserted in the Gospell, why may not the like answeres be now written and published to the world?
A07467In like manner, if hee had taken any to aduise with all, touching the place of his Natiuity, they would haue told him, what Lord, chuse a stable?
A07467Is it fit that Diuels should fall out with Diuels?
A07467Is it not a thing that was neuer heard of before, that the Diuell is at variance with the Diuell, and that hell combateth against hell?
A07467Is it not all true which I haue here deliuered?
A07467Is it not better to obey God then Belzebub?
A07467Is it not good reason to reuerence the blessed mother of God since that you are her children?
A07467Is it not strange that the deuils should teach men mortification and aduise them thereunto?
A07467Is it not thus?
A07467Is not the Priest a sinner as I am?
A07467It is true, that we may take a true oath?
A07467Knowest thou not that hee is the father of the prodigall child?
A07467Knowest thou not, that hee raised Lazarus from the dead, and that his all powerfull word in speaking a fiat, framed whatsoever seemed good vnto him?
A07467Leuiathan answered, Knowest thou not that we z never sticke to take a false oath?
A07467Leuiathan answered: What need all these words then?
A07467Leuiathan answered: What?
A07467Leuiathan said, What?
A07467Leuiathan, among the supreame Seraphins, thou wert the third after Lucifer: What sayest thou now learned doctor?
A07467Lewes answered, what should I doe?
A07467Lewes why doest thou thus fore- slow thy comming?
A07467Louyse vnderstandeth all this passingly well, her Father and Mother haue brought her vp to speake a great deale of latin, haue they nor?
A07467Magdalene where are thy e teares?
A07467Mary, why shouldest thou so affectionatly loue them?
A07467May not hee exact this seruice from the Deuill, to enforce him to doe his will, when it shall be best pleasing vnto him?
A07467Miserable Belzebub, was it not thou that wouldest haue throwne God from his seate of Maiesty?
A07467Nay, why should it not rather agree vnto him, as being more capable of reason, speech, and all other actions, then a statue?
A07467No, they must be obedient beyond others, for know you not that they are tempted by the Deuill beyond others?
A07467Now if God who is the true Physition of your soules, shall aske you whether you be sicke or no, will you answere you are not sicke when you are?
A07467Nunquid feriet tecum pactum,& accipies eum quasi seruum sempiternum?
A07467Nunquid illudes ei quasi aui?
A07467O Ioseph, thou diddest enquire after some lodging wherein you might retire your selues, but there was no roome in the Inne, and why?
A07467O execrable Priest how carelesse art thou of thy dignity and calling?
A07467O poore Princes, where is now your state and power, how cursed is hee that lendeth his eare vnto your sly suggestions?
A07467O, O, O, Mercy( said Belzebub) how great art thou for the sinner, O Iustice, how seuere art thou against vs?
A07467Others say, To what purpose should I confesse my selfe?
A07467Otherwise to what purpose scrueth the authority of the Church, if oathes haue no tye or power?
A07467Poore wretch looke well to thy selfe, alas, who will defend thee?
A07467Quid mihi& tibi Iesu fili Dei altissimi?
A07467Secundò he demanded of him, Whither the Church hath power and authority to command Diuels?
A07467See you not that Belzebub is contrary vnto mee, and I to him?
A07467Since then for the most part these kind of Witches are different in complexion, age, sex, and sect, how happeneth it that they should all dreame?
A07467Speake now( illuminate doctor) defend thy selfe, O thou doctor of Heretickes?
A07467Speake?
A07467THE REPORT AND EXPLICATION OF the passage of S. Ierome, vpon the 1. chapter of the Prophet Nahum, where it is said: WHat doe you imagine against God?
A07467Tell me if there bee any power or authority in the bookes of Exorcismes to force vs to take a true and a binding oath, answere mee now to this?
A07467That night at supper Belzebub did nothing but grumble, and father Francis Billet said vnto him, Why doest thou snarle thus?
A07467The Scripture teacheth vs these two points: the first in Ieremy, Inscrutabile est cor hominis,& quis cognoscet illud?
A07467The good theefe of his owne accord confessed his sinne, and reproued his companion, What?
A07467The other said, And how is the body heere, when it is said, that he sitteth at the right hand of God?
A07467The same day in the euening was Magdalene exorcised by Mr. Paule, whereupon Belzebub being demanded whither the Diuell did torment Magicians or no?
A07467The tables of great personages are abundantly profuse in delicacies, but what agreemēt is there betwixt Christ and Belial?
A07467Then Belzebub began to cry: what, vnder the feete of men?
A07467Then did the said father r ● ply, Cursed spirit, art thou not ashamed to resist thy God and thy Creator?
A07467Then father Michaelis asked him, Quod tibi nomen: he answered, Leuiathan: Then he demanded of him againe; How many are there in her?
A07467Then he added, what, doe madd women receaue the Communion?
A07467Then he cried out as loud as he could: b who dares deny that Diuels may speake truth?
A07467Then he said, will you not suffer mee to talke, who am an instrument in the discouery of these witches?
A07467Then he spake in a great rage to her that was possessed, and said: What thinkest thou Louyse?
A07467Then he spake to i Magdalene, and said; Well Magdalene, are you satisfied now?
A07467Then hee confirmed this speech with a solemne oath, and after said, to what vse and purpose are wholesome waters if there be none to drinke of them?
A07467Then said Belzebub, sir, you vnderstand it not, because you will not, knowe you not what Contremiscis meaneth: it is, why tremble you not?
A07467Then said Leuiathan, What haue I to doe with this preacher?
A07467Then said Verrine, wilt thou take an oath, as I will, affirming that there is but one God, one Baptisme, and one Church?
A07467Then said the Diuell, can God compell a Diuell to deliuer truth?
A07467Then said the Huguenot, q how prooue you that God hath commanded vs to pray to Saints?
A07467Then shall they answere and say: What?
A07467Then the Sub- priour said, Are not we to commit any mortall sinne by our Rule?
A07467There are Angels, and there are Preachers, is it not so?
A07467Thē Verrine addressing his speech to God, said: n What, Lord?
A07467Thinke ye not that God is exceedingly incensed by these audacious prouocations?
A07467Thou art he that doest suggest vnto the Nobility: What sir?
A07467Thou art well skilled in latin, is this latin of the vulgar kinde or not?
A07467Thou doest also suggest vnto them; what sir?
A07467Thou hast inueagled thousands from him, and thinkest thou that hee will euer dissemble this?
A07467To this Leuiathan replyed, are there not other Ambassadours?
A07467To this he said, I am not yet satisfied in this point, but tell mee, how prooue you there is a Purgatory?
A07467To this the Gentle- man said, How prooue you that the Church was the true Church?
A07467To what end doe you exhaust your selues with studying, and doe so painefully imploy your selues in reading of bookes?
A07467To what purpose doe men exorcise, and make interrogatories vnto diuels, if their replies be never consonant vnto truth?
A07467To which Belzebub replied: Why should I worship this God?
A07467To which Verrine answered, Doe not you your selues pray sometimes one for another?
A07467Verrine added: Magdalene, tell me, didst thou neuer see k the Diuels?
A07467Verrine answered him, it is an Article of your Creede; if you be wiser then God, why goe you not and pluck him from his Throane?
A07467Verrine answered, z Why doest thou thus intreat mee?
A07467Verrine being put to the question in these words, Cur miser vt soleb as non contremiscis?
A07467Verrine further said vnto him: And of what religion art thou?
A07467Verrine replied, Accursed spirit, darest thou sweare as I will?
A07467Verrine said, Dost thou beleeue the true Church which is the Church of Rome, I know thou dost not beleeue it?
A07467Verrine then said vnto him, What wouldest thou haue mee answere vnto?
A07467Vnto these wee may propose the question, which Saint Athanasius once did to Arrius, Si quis Sathanam adoret, rectene an malé fecerit?
A07467Vt, quid venisti ante tempus ● orquere nos?
A07467WHether it be lawfull for a woman to discourse and reason in a Church?
A07467Was it euer heard of before, that the Diuell should come to reprehend sinners?
A07467Was it for your selfe alone?
A07467What Belzebub, art thou returned?
A07467What a ● hame will it be, that any should not be conuerted, whē ● he Diuell himselfe exhorteth them thereunto?
A07467What doth the father then?
A07467What doth this father then?
A07467What hast thou then to do to present such to thy Sonne, who is puritie it selfe?
A07467What inducement leadeth thee to be distrustfull of the bountie and mercie of thy Redeemer?
A07467What is now become of thy strength?
A07467What man can heere excuse himselfe?
A07467What ought we then to cōceiue of Diuels, being adiured in the power of the name of God?
A07467What saiest thou Louyse?
A07467What saiest thou?
A07467What say ye?
A07467What seekest thou further?
A07467What should become of the miserable sinner, if that all the Saints had liued in innocency?
A07467What wilt thou with me, for thou hast called me?
A07467What, Lord?
A07467What?
A07467What?

A07467Whe ● her Witches doe vse their staffe and oyntment that they may be transported and carried in the ayre?
A07467Where are thy braues and forces now?
A07467Where is her penance?
A07467Where is thy Credo, Magdalen?
A07467Where lieth the fault?
A07467Where was his Crowne, where was his Scepter, where were his hangings of Tapistry?
A07467Where were the Caroches?
A07467Where were the horses?
A07467Where were thy easie Litters to carry her?
A07467Whether Henry the great, the fourth of that name be saued?

A07467Whether it be lawfull to write letters vnto Saints in Paradise?
A07467Whether it bee lawfull that a woman should speake and preach in the Church, since that Saint Paul forbiddeth a woman to speake there?
A07467Whether it behooues vs to beleeue all the Diuell saith?
A07467Whether the Diuell can make men renounce God and their Baptisme?
A07467Whether the Diuell may pray to God for to saue sinners?
A07467Whether there be Incubi and Succubi?
A07467Whether we are to beleeue all the Deuill saith?
A07467Whether witches worship the Diuel in the forme of a Goate?
A07467Who reuealed vnto you that the King of glory was there?
A07467Who without great difficultie would give credite vnto them?
A07467Who would euer haue affirmed, that such a one as shee should bee the Mother of Almighty God?
A07467Who would euer haue thought that her Sonne which she carried in her armes had beene the liuing God, Creator of Heauen and Earth?
A07467Why art thou so fond ouer them; is not thy blessed Mother in heauen with an infinite number of Saints and Angels?
A07467Why doe you rather chuse to lauish away your time, then to pray for the health of your soules?
A07467Why is it, that those that are possessed be exorcised, if it bee not auaileable, and if the Diuell can not speake truth?
A07467Why saiest thou thy Credo, if thou beleeuest not what I haue spoken?
A07467Why therefore should you tremble at afflictions, troubles, persecutions, or whatsoeuer may deiect and make you humble?
A07467Wilt thou exorcise Louyse, when shee is not possessed?
A07467Wilt thou play with him as a bird, and tye a thread about his legg to keep him in, or to let him fly at thy pleasure?
A07467Wilt thou sweare according to the meaning of the Catholicke, Apostolicke and Romane Church, said Verrine?
A07467Wilt thou vse the ministry of a Diuell in a businesse of this importance?
A07467Wilt thou yet make head against thy Captaine?
A07467Witnesse Paul, when hee heard the voyce, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou mee?
A07467You haue the Prince of Magicke in your hands, will not this satisfie you?
A07467You know full wel, that you pray for your Kings and Princes, and doe you conceite, that there is lesse charity in Paradise?
A07467You that goe to Church to heare Masse, are to say, Soule whether goest thou?
A07467You will heere obiect: What, is there silthinesse in Paradise?
A07467all things are subiected vnto thy will, for doe thou but speake the word, and what is there that dareth resist thee?
A07467alleaging that God hath spoken by his Prophet: Repent, for if you doe not repent, you shall die the death: Who dares say that this is not true?
A07467although in saying thus, what noueltie doe I speake?
A07467and did not the Apostles also serue their turnes with them, by commanding them, as they thought good?
A07467are not you a great counsellor?
A07467are not you a great familiar of the Kings?
A07467are there not Preachers enough?
A07467are you thirsty?
A07467can Christ Iesus bee subiect to thirst, and such naturall infirmities?
A07467can you giue away that which you haue not?
A07467can you haue any affiance in Deuils?
A07467can you not with as much ease chuse a Palace?
A07467could so great a Lord as you stand in need of any thing?
A07467could you be naked?
A07467cui Christus exploratus sine Spiritu Sancto?

A07467did hee not rise the third day?
A07467did not Christ Iesus himselfe the same?
A07467doe not you moderate the scales of Iustice?
A07467doe you not meane to defend your reputation?
A07467doest thou not know that he is able to raise the dead?
A07467dost thou looke to draw mens attention vnto thee?
