witch_n to_o live_v which_o imply_v a_o discovery_n of_o they_o else_o it_o can_v never_o be_v put_v in_o execution_n and_o so_o shall_v be_v a_o law_n to_o no_o purpose_n second_o from_o the_o

14._o second_o we_o have_v chronicle_n and_o many_o relation_n make_v of_o the_o evident_a discourse_n of_o witch_n three_o the_o many_o trial_n in_o our_o own_o country_n at_o many_o assize_n so_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o witch_n may_v be_v discover_v though_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o that_o there_o be_v some_o difficulty_n therein_o because_o the_o secrecy_n of_o the_o ground_n of_o witchcraft_n be_v so_o close_a and_o hide_a as_o be_v one_o of_o the_o great_a work_n of_o darkness_n commit_v this_o day_n under_o the_o sun_n for_o that_o natural_a cause_n may_v arise_v very_o

i_o can_v reckon_v divers_a instance_n of_o several_a way_n which_o many_o time_n have_v produce_v strange_a and_o sometime_o true_a effect_n which_o mean_n have_v partly_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o question_n of_o many_o who_o have_v be_v find_v no_o less_o than_o witch_n and_o have_v suffer_v since_o the_o aforementioned_a time_n but_o i_o forbear_v to_o speak_v any_o further_a of_o those_o way_n for_o i_o conceive_v they_o to_o be_v unlawful_a altogether_o and_o not_o to_o be_v use_v for_o it_o can_v be_v conceive_v any_o less_o than_o a_o distrust_n in_o god_n providence_n in_o put_v confidence_n that_o such_o mean_n will_v make_v the_o witch_n know_v and_o effect_v their_o desire_n yet_o to_o proceed_v as_o i_o have_v say_v i_o can_v deny_v but_o those_o may_v be_v just_a ground_n of_o suspicion_n and_o cause_n of_o question_v they_o but_o not_o always_o certain_a beside_o the_o unlawfulness_n hold_v by_o divine_n but_o these_o can_v be_v deny_v to_o be_v just_a

of_o denford_n in_o northampuonshire_n who_o suffer_v for_o witchery_n since_o the_o say_a time_n at_o northampton_n confess_v that_o he_o send_v one_o of_o his_o imp_n to_o one_o cock_n cattle_n of_o
