Well thought of in good sooth for the Devil sure will never deny his choicest acquaintance a small courtesit * Because he was disinherited by his father for theft * For thou wert the Devil of an Impostor * For thou wert the Devils Shepherd and keptest his Hogs i. e. All Knaves and Fools * She was St. Francis's concubine and run away with him Had this been said at first all the rest might have been left out He 's mistaken that takes these for Complements Note That Tautology may be used in Conjuring A thick-skull'd Devil that knew not what he meant without all these repetitions This seems to be in order to some Indictment Quaere Whether the Devil be bound to accuse himself What need he ask the Devil his name when he knows him so well It seems there are worse places than Hell He supposes the Devil well read in Scripture and as good an Expositor as himself He is very careful to rub up the Devils memory * That perhaps was more than the Devil knew This is Conjurers Theology He takes the Devil for a Nicodemus otherwise a word to the Wise had been sufficient It seems there 's nothing to be done with the Devil by fair means or good words For the Devil takes no Lease and is not therefore bound to leave the Tenement in repair unless you can force him this way * Whither should the Devil be sent but to the Devil As being more effectual in his opinion than Father Son and Holy Ghost * Who ever were or ever shall be * This is news Gentlemen If that be true how came Abel Enoch and Noah to be Saints * Conjurers never desire a Quarters warning This is the reason that Witches at their Feasts never use Salt for fear it should be Exorcised The Fox never thrives better than when he is curs'd Now Gentlemen you have the Christen Names of the Wisemen but for their Sirnames we are still in the dark INRI These are dear blessings to the poor for 't is a very poor blessing indeed that is not worth half a Crown * One would think a Flail should do better for there is no sence against a Flail * The Exorcist might have had more manners than to tell the Devil such a notorious lye to his face Men go when the Devil drives and the Devil must go when worse than himself drives Ergo this Exorcism signifies nothing or the Popish Exorcists are worse than the Devil * And thus you see what a fine employment these Exorcists have found out for the Archangels to be the Devil's Jailors These Exorcists are like to succeed when they put the Devil upon impossibilities As if the Devil did not know his time better than they could tell him * The Parson said the Devil was a Lawyer from the beginning and therefore several words of the same signification are very proper And who were their Godfathers and Godmothers * The Popish Priests are very punctual with the Devil well knowing what belongs to Equivocation * For an ordinary Subpoena would signifie nothing †He must be the Devil of a man that knows when the Devil speaks truth * These are some amorous Devils or rather Smell-smock Spirits and who knows how these Ladies may have obliged ' em This is like the Lease of Ejectment left at the House of Tenant in possession Excellent Varnish for a holy Cheat. For you must know this is a damn'd obstinate Devil The Devil must now needs be in a peck of troubles having no place left to bestow himself You must always allow of Nonsence and Contradiction in Exorcisms For the Devil is no stranger to sence but he abhors Nonsence and flies it They 'l make the Devil believe the Moon 's made of green Cheese by and by * That was unpardonable Let her alone till that day comes quoth the Welchman The Devil had certainly obeyed this Command but that he knew the Priest had lain with a Wench three times the night before * With your good leave the Devil cannot leave the Heart nor the lower part of the Belly till the Surgeon washes him with a Syringe and then he is forced to run for 't So that the Exorcist need do no more than get him down to the lower part of the Belly and there leave him to the Surgeon his Deputy He should have added by Theseus and Hercules that Clapper-claw'd your Dog Cerberus
