that_o which_o have_v be_v set_v down_o of_o the_o boy_n sense_n understanding_n knowledge_n &_o memory_n be_v very_o material_a and_o much_o more_o may_v be_v add_v 108._o thomas_n darling_n who_o

for_o a_o certainty_n that_o i_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n within_o i_o so_o do_v i_o with_o the_o like_a certainty_n believe_v that_o in_o my_o dialogue_n with_o satan_n when_o i_o allege_v

that_o they_o be_v not_o speak_v by_o i_o through_o any_o assistance_n of_o god_n spirit_n this_o contrariety_n do_v arise_v from_o the_o boy_n affection_n to_o darrel_n be_v so_o bewitch_v with_o a_o

darling_n have_v last_o depose_v of_o the_o devil_n utter_v all_o that_o be_v speak_v in_o the_o say_a dialogue_n and_o that_o it_o will_v thereby_o follow_v that_o the_o devil_n move_v the_o stander_n by_o to_o pray_v and_o sing_v psalm_n as_o it_o be_v in_o one_o of_o the_o say_a dialogue_n and_o that_o he_o &_o diverse_a other_o when_o they_o do_v sing_v &_o pray_v according_o do_v therein_o accompany_v satan_n and_o not_o thomas_n darling_n say_v upon_o his_o examination_n touch_v this_o point_n i_o do_v very_o believe_v that_o whosoever_o affirm_v that_o it_o be_v the_o devil_n that_o move_v we_o then_o to_o pray_v and_o sing_v psalm_n he_o say_v not_o true_o 148._o but_o do_v lie_v in_o so_o affirm_v again_o both_o i_o and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o boy_n friend_n as_o i_o believe_v do_v very_o think_v and_o be_v persuade_v that_o when_o thomas_n darling_n do_v seem_v to_o use_v the_o godly_a speech_n mention_v in_o the_o dialogue_n he_o himself_o do_v use_v they_o be_v direct_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n neither_o do_v we_o once_o imagine_v or_o suspect_v that_o the_o say_v speech_n be_v utter_v by_o satan_n and_o i_o do_v still_o believe_v that_o they_o be_v utter_v by_o the_o assistance_n of_o god_n spirit_n and_o not_o in_o any_o sort_n by_o the_o devil_n and_o again_o if_o it_o be_v hold_v for_o a_o certain_a ground_n that_o whosoever_o be_v possess_v be_v so_o far_o in_o satan_n bondage_n while_o he_o be_v in_o his_o fit_n as_o that_o whatsoever_o he_o say_v it_o be_v not_o he_o but_o satan_n that_o speak_v it_o i_o do_v then_o full_o believe_v that_o thobas_fw-la darling_n be_v not_o possess_v and_o that_o he_o say_v untrue_o if_o he_o affirm_v that_o he_o be_v possess_v furthermore_o whereas_o it_o appear_v by_o the_o say_a book_n that_o th._n darling_n &_o all_o his_o friend_n be_v of_o opinion_n that_o all_o the_o godly_a speech_n in_o show_n therein_o mention_v to_o have_v be_v utter_v by_o the_o boy_n in_o his_o fit_n be_v speak_v by_o he_o the_o say_a darling_n through_o the_o assistance_n of_o god_n spirit_n and_o that_o likewise_o the_o principal_a scope_n of_o the_o book_n do_v tend_v to_o the_o magnify_v of_o the_o boy_n faith_n and_o his_o wonderful_a constancy_n in_o his_o combat_n with_o satan_n m._n darrell_n be_v demand_v why_o he_o suffer_v the_o say_a book_n to_o pass_v his_o hand_n with_o that_o great_a error_n consider_v his_o own_o judgement_n that_o all_o those_o thing_n and_o speech_n which_o the_o boy_n friend_n rejoice_v in_o proceed_v from_o satan_n he_o the_o say_v darrell_n answer_v thus_o i_o do_v think_v that_o the_o boy_n the_o author_n of_o the_o book_n 142._o and_o the_o boy_n friend_n be_v of_o such_o mind_n and_o opinion_n as_o be_v here_o mention_v and_o for_o the_o book_n i_o suffer_v it_o to_o pass_v to_o the_o press_n have_v read_v it_o over_o at_o that_o time_n cursorilie_o and_o i_o be_v then_o of_o opinion_n that_o a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o speech_n mention_v in_o the_o say_a dialogue_n be_v utter_v by_o the_o assistance_n of_o god_n spirit_n or_o by_o the_o ministry_n of_o a_o holy_a angel_n howbeit_o since_o upon_o better_a advisement_n as_o i_o think_v i_o be_o persuade_v that_o all_o the_o say_a speech_n be_v utter_v by_o satan_n transform_v himself_o into_o a_o angel_n of_o light_n if_o any_o man_n will_v take_v the_o pain_n to_o peruse_v those_o speech_n which_o jesse_n bee_n have_v father_v upon_o the_o boy_n in_o the_o say_a dialogue_n he_o shall_v find_v they_o to_o be_v such_o as_o will_v hardly_o be_v find_v again_o in_o any_o story_n that_o ever_o be_v write_v to_o be_v ascribe_v to_o sathan_n but_o peradventure_o m._n darrel_n may_v have_v some_o conceit_n that_o the_o boy_n be_v suppose_v to_o have_v two_o devil_n in_o he_o one_o of_o they_o have_v finish_v the_o time_n of_o his_o torment_n and_o so_o be_v become_v a_o faithful_a spirit_n ready_a to_o be_v translate_v from_o hell_n into_o heaven_n as_o some_o in_o that_o behalf_n have_v moralize_v last_o it_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v that_o darling_n after_o he_o have_v continue_v a_o while_n in_o his_o first_o pretend_a fit_n many_o suppose_a &_o give_v it_o out_o that_o he_o be_v but_o a_o dissembler_n as_o it_o may_v appear_v by_o the_o deposition_n follow_v 148._o while_o darling_n be_v trouble_v say_v jesse_n be_v many_o do_v think_v and_o affirm_v it_o that_o he_o dissemble_v &_o one_o of_o their_o reason_n be_v for_o that_o he_o do_v pretend_v that_o the_o devil_n speak_v unto_o he_o when_o none_o else_o do_v hear_v he_o that_o be_v present_a at_o which_o time_n they_o hear_v thomas_n darling_n pretend_v as_o though_o he_o answer_v he_o 179._o and_o edward_n baker_n i_o believe_v say_v he_o that_o the_o boy_n do_v dissemble_v and_o i_o use_v these_o word_n to_o his_o mother_n i_o pray_v god_n he_o do_v not_o dissemble_v she_o say_v that_o i_o have_v no_o faith_n this_o opinion_n of_o the_o boy_n counterfeit_n being_n hold_v by_o many_o it_o be_v fear_v as_o it_o seem_v lest_o he_o shall_v be_v induce_v by_o some_o mean_n at_o one_o time_n or_o other_o to_o confess_v his_o dissimulation_n and_o thereupon_o some_o of_o his_o friend_n do_v encourage_v he_o to_o take_v heed_n thereof_o and_o to_o continue_v constant_a in_o affirm_v that_o he_o have_v be_v possess_v and_o be_v dispossess_v some_o thing_n to_o this_o purpose_n darling_n acknowledge_v in_o these_o word_n 73_o i_o confess_v that_o since_o the_o time_n of_o my_o suppose_a dispossession_n my_o uncle_n toone_n tell_v i_o that_o although_o

to_o be_v chief_o ascribe_v unto_o m._n darrell_n he_o have_v the_o chief_a commendation_n of_o it_o insomuch_o as_o when_o the_o seven_o in_o lancashire_n be_v to_o be_v deal_v with_o m._n dees_n

observe_v first_o his_o conceit_n that_o the_o devil_n the_o next_o day_n will_v be_v cast_v out_o than_o it_o appear_v that_o he_o have_v use_v great_a vaunt_n of_o the_o dispossession_n of_o
