witch_n now_o a_o day_n confess_v and_o that_o he_o choose_v the_o subtle_a creature_n to_o deceive_v by_o and_o the_o weak_a vessel_n to_o confer_v with_o but_o by_o the_o confession_n of_o witch_n now_o late_o detect_v he_o choose_v such_o creature_n as_o they_o themselves_o be_v most_o addict_v to_o as_o you_o shall_v hereafter_o find_v by_o their_o confession_n by_o the_o several_a shape_n he_o appear_v in_o but_o how_o ever_o we_o may_v read_v there_o it_o be_v a_o powerful_a persuasion_n to_o overcome_v and_o yet_o work_v by_o witch_n wizard_n necromancer_n sorcerer_n soothsayer_n and_o all_o kind_n of_o magic_a art_n as_o we_o may_v read_v in_o exod._n 7._o 11_o 12._o and_o 8._o 7._o where_o we_o may_v see_v that_o pharaoh_n call_v the_o wiseman_n the_o sorcerer_n and_o the_o magician_n of_o egypt_n who_o do_v with_o their_o enchantment_n in_o like_o manner_n as_o moses_n and_o aaron_n but_o i_o pass_v by_o the_o proof_n out_o of_o the_o old_a testament_n for_o this_o because_o i_o desire_v to_o give_v such_o satisfaction_n as_o i_o be_o able_a that_o it_o may_v appear_v that_o there_o be_v witch_n now_o as_o in_o former_a age_n and_o if_o what_o have_v be_v already_o speak_v will_v not_o give_v satisfaction_n herein_o you_o may_v read_v in_o the_o 2._o tim._n 3._o 8._o who_o they_o be_v that_o be_v the_o oppsor_n of_o the_o truth_n but_o such_o as_o jannes_n and_o jambre_n who_o withstand_v moses_n and_o then_o search_v who_o they_o be_v and_o you_o shall_v find_v they_o be_v such_o as_o pharaoh_n call_v to_o he_o as_o in_o the_o before_o mention_a place_n who_o with_o their_o enchantment_n do_v the_o like_a as_o moses_n have_v do_v so_o you_o may_v read_v of_o elymas_n the_o sorcerer_n act._n 13._o 8._o who_o resist_v the_o apostle_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n so_o likewise_o in_o act._n 8_o 9_o you_o shall_v read_v of_o simon_n magus_n a_o sorcerer_n to_o who_o in_o the_o 10_o verse_n it_o be_v say_v they_o all_o give_v heed_n from_o the_o least_o to_o the_o great_a say_v this_o man_n be_v the_o great_a power_n of_o god_n for_o in_o the_o 11._o verse_n its_o be_v say_v because_o that_o of_o long_a time_n he_o have_v bewitch_v they_o with_o sorcery_n and_o in_o the_o 13_o verse_n we_o read_v he_o be_v baptise_v but_o read_v the_o 20_o 21_o 22_o and_o you_o shall_v read_v what_o peter_n say_v to_o he_o and_o so_o read_v no_o more_o of_o he_o in_o all_o the_o new_a testament_n also_o in_o the_o rev._n 21._o 8._o you_o may_v read_v how_o sorcerer_n shall_v with_o other_o sinner_n there_o reckon_v up_o have_v their_o part_n in_o the_o lake_n which_o burn_v with_o fire_n and_o brimstone_n and_o so_o likewise_o we_o read_v in_o the_o epistle_n of_o jude_n the_o apostle_n speak_v there_o of_o false_a teacher_n which_o be_v creep_v into_o the_o church_n to_o seduce_v they_o for_o who_o damnable_a doctrine_n and_o manner_n horrible_a judgement_n be_v prepare_v in_o the_o 11._o verse_n pronounce_v woe_n unto_o they_o for_o they_o have_v go_v in_o the_o way_n of_o cain_n and_o run_v greedy_o after_o the_o error_n of_o balaam_n by_o which_o we_o may_v plain_o see_v that_o there_o be_v witch_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o after_o the_o come_n and_o ascension_n of_o our_o saviour_n and_o do_v any_o doubt_n then_o whether_o there_o be_v any_o now_o do_v any_o think_v that_o we_o be_v free_a from_o such_o where_o sin_n and_o ignorance_n beside_o so_o much_o abound_v or_o do_v you_o desire_v to_o have_v proof_n of_o witch_n since_o then_o you_o shall_v have_v enough_o of_o their_o confession_n to_o make_v this_o evident_a beside_o the_o relation_n of_o learned_a man_n write_v concerning_o witchcraft_n but_o if_o you_o will_v but_o right_o observe_v that_o place_n in_o 2._o tim._n 3._o 1_o and_o so_o on_o to_o the_o 8._o you_o shall_v find_v that_o in_o the_o last_o day_n shall_v come_v perilous_a time_n etc._n etc._n and_o in_o the_o 8._o verse_n it_o be_v say_v and_o as_o jannes_n and_o jambre_n withstand_v moses_n so_o do_v those_o also_o resist_v the_o truth_n there_o you_o may_v see_v plain_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v such_o to_o the_o latter_a end_n beside_o in_o divers_a other_o place_n speak_v express_o of_o witchcraft_n as_o 1._o tim._n 4._o 1._o and_o jude_n 18._o likewise_o of_o the_o pythoness_n which_o bring_v her_o mistress_n much_o gain_v act_n 16._o 16._o also_o in_o rev_n 21._o 8._o and_o so_o i_o may_v nominate_v divers_a other_o place_n for_o those_o which_o remain_v doubtful_a either_o of_o be_v bewitch_v or_o of_o witch_n themselves_o but_o because_o their_o own_o confession_n clear_v this_o evident_o beside_o the_o forename_a place_n i_o proceed_v to_o distinguish_v between_o those_o call_v bad_a witch_n and_o those_o call_v white_a or_o good_a witch_n which_o be_v easy_o to_o be_v discern_v and_o know_v but_o yet_o i_o say_v all_o witch_n be_v bad_a and_o aught_o to_o suffer_v alike_o be_v both_o in_o league_n with_o the_o devil_n for_o so_o be_v the_o good_a so_o untrue_o call_v aswell_o as_o the_o other_o either_o open_a or_o implicit_a and_o therefore_o i_o conclude_v all_o that_o be_v in_o open_a league_n with_o the_o devil_n ought_v to_o die_v and_o the_o scripture_n make_v mention_v only_o of_o ten_o sort_n which_o speak_v rather_o of_o those_o call_v the_o good_a which_o the_o world_n so_o
