A65369 The displaying of supposed witchcraft wherein is affirmed that there are many sorts of deceivers and impostors and divers persons under a passive delusion of melancholy and fancy, but that there is a corporeal league made betwixt the Devil and the witch ... is utterly denied and disproved : wherein also is handled, the existence of angels and spirits, the truth of apparitions, the nature of astral and sydereal spirits, the force of charms, and philters, with other abstruse matters / by John Webster ... Webster, John, 1610-1682. 1677 (1677) Wing W1230; ESTC R12517 396,606 368

place_n of_o bliss_n and_o there_o abide_v with_o i_o a_o member_n of_o that_o my_o kingdom_n which_o thou_o ask_v for_o now_o if_o the_o soul●_n of_o the_o godly_a after_o their_o death_n be_v

a_o parable_n yet_o the_o spiritual_a meaning_n of_o our_o saviour_n must_v be_v infallible_o true_a that_o immediate_o after_o death_n the_o soul_n of_o the_o godly_a be_v by_o angel_n carry_v into_o

alive_a etc._n etc._n we_o count_v those_o apparition_n among_o the_o delusion_n and_o deceit_n of_o the_o devil_n 5._o and_o as_o the_o scripture_n be_v sufficient_a both_o in_o respect_n of_o matter_n of_o faith_n and_o concern_v divine_a worship_n that_o their_o silence_n in_o those_o two_o particular_n be_v full_o argumentative_a to_o deny_v whatever_o be_v not_o contain_v in_o they_o as_o unfit_a to_o be_v receive_v to_o either_o purpose_n so_o in_o respect_n of_o a_o christian_n warfare_n all_o thing_n for_o the_o obtain_n of_o a_o perfect_a and_o complete_a victory_n and_o for_o

the_o kingdom_n of_o satan_n be_v to_o be_v reject_v and_o not_o to_o be_v believe_v and_o what_o weapon_n we_o be_v to_o use_v against_o the_o wile_n of_o the_o devil_n we_o be_v to_o be_v furnish_v
