Ioannes Niderus writeth to haue knowen a gentleman of note named Sucher who whilst he kept in a castle nighe the towne of Halle in Germany as he grew cold in the seruice of God nor frequenting the Sacraments as he was wonte because of the quarrells which he had against those of Halle went and fild his castle with a companie of lewed seruants all trained vp in warres and enured to their weapons the diuell disguised like a soldiar came also to present and offer his seruice to him This couetous gentleman seeing that this soldiar offred to serue him without any wages he accepted of him and made him his horse-keeper The deuil began from that time to serue his master with all fidellitie but it was obserued after a longe while that he neuer went vnto the Church conducting his master only vnto the doore then returning to his worke The gentlemā although desbauched yet still continued his good custome now thē to heare Masse wēt not to bed nor yet arose but first be made the signe of the Crosse and said some certaine Aue Maries And hauing bene could and obseruing him selfe that his horse-keeper neuer went to Church he vrged him vpon a day to tell him freely who he was The hors-keeper tould him that he was the deuill but bid him for all this not to haue any apprehention sithe he had still til then found him faithfull and should still finde him more and more from that time forward The gentleman was at the first a litle afraid notwithstanding moued with couetousnes resolued to keepe him yet a while One night as he slept behould this diuell horse-keeper awaked him with a sodaine starting crying Master Master The gentleman asked what was the matter Quickly quickly quoth the diuell put on your apparell and your armes for those of Halle are coming for to take your castle The gentleman affrighted at these newes clothed him and put on his armes with all possible speed neuertheles not forgetting him selfe to make the signe of the Crosse and to say his prayers he was wont to say Being vp and ready he looked forth at all the windoes and saw nothinge whence he perceiued that this was nothing but a false alarum and all in cholar asked of his deuill what had moued him so to trouble and molest him in the midst of his sleepe The diuell āswered him that he had done it for this designe thinking that the affrithtment and sodaine haste to get him vp would haue made him forgot the making of the signe of the Crosse and saying of his prayers and by this meanes he would haue set vpon him The gentlmā hearing this was euer after much more dilligent in this his dutie then he was before but he could not for all this be quit of this deuelish seruant vntill such time as he began to frequent the Sacramēts for the very first time wherin he had recourse vnto them the diuell vanished quite away and he neuer saw him afterwardes Niderus l. 3. form Loe what diligence the diuel vseth to hinder vs to pray in the morning What virtu the signe of the Crosse hath the Aue Marie the Sacramēts If the diuell tempt vs we haue also a good Angell which doth counter-gard vs. God hath giuen his Angells charge of thee that they keepe thee in all thy wayes Psalm 9● 11. 2.
