unto spirituall substances according unto that of the Prophet Zac. 13 2. He shall cause the uncleane spirits to depart the Land accomplished when the Prince of this world was cast out Ioh. 12.31 Heaven Earth and Hell confessed him the Wonderfull for at his passion the Sun did hide his face the Earth was moved
