significator_n be_v in_o square_a or_o opposition_n to_o the_o moon_n but_o if_o the_o witch_n house_n be_v tile_v then_o take_v a_o tile_n from_o over_o the_o door_n heat_v he_o red_a hot_a put_v

aforesaid_a 2._o another_o way_n be_v to_o get_v two_o new_a horseshooe_n heat_n one_o of_o they_o red_a hot_a and_o quench_v he_o in_o the_o patient_n urine_n then_o immediate_o nail_v he_o on_o the_o inside_n of_o the_o threshold_n of_o the_o door_n with_o three_o nail_n the_o heel_n be_v upward_o then_o have_v the_o patient_n urine_n set_v it_o over_o the_o fire_n and_o set_v a_o trivet_n

into_o it_o three_o nail_n pin_n or_o needle_n with_o a_o little_a white_a salt_n keep_v the_o urine_n always_o warm_a if_o you_o let_v it_o remain_v long_o in_o the_o bottle_n it_o will_v endanger_v the_o witch_n life_n for_o i_o have_v find_v by_o experience_n that_o they_o will_v be_v grievous_o torment_v make_v their_o water_n with_o great_a difficulty_n if_o any_o at_o all_o and_o the_o more_o if_o the_o moon_n be_v in_o scorpio_n in_o square_n or_o opposition_n to_o his_o significator_n when_o it_o be_v do_v 4._o another_o way_n be_v either_o at_o the_o new_a full_a or_o quarter_n of_o the_o moon_n but_o more_o especial_o when_o the_o moon_n be_v in_o square_a or_o opposition_n to_o the_o planet_n which_o do_v personate_v the_o witch_n to_o let_v the_o patient_a blood_n and_o while_o the_o blood_n be_v warm_a put_v a_o little_a white_a salt_n into_o it_o then_o let_v it_o burn_v and_o smoke_n through_o a_o trivet_n i_o conceive_v this_o way_n do_v more_o afflict_v the_o witch_n than_o any_o of_o the_o other_o three_o before_o mention_v by_o reason_n the_o blood_n have_v more_o life_n in_o it_o then_o the_o urine_n for_o the_o urine_n be_v account_v but_o as_o the_o excrement_n of_o blood_n the_o reason_n why_o the_o witch_n be_v torment_v when_o the_o blood_n or_o urine_n of_o the_o patient_a be_v burn_v be_v because_o there_o be_v part_n of_o the_o vital_a spirit_n of_o the_o witch_n in_o it_o for_o such_o be_v the_o subtlety_n of_o the_o devil_n that_o he_o will_v not_o suffer_v the_o witch_n to_o infuse_v any_o poisonous_a matter_n into_o the_o body_n of_o man_n or_o beast_n without_o some_o of_o the_o witch_n blood_n mingle_v with_o it_o as_o appear_z by_o the_o whey_n before_o mention_v for_o it_o be_v the_o devil_n policy_n either_o by_o this_o mean_n to_o detect_v they_o or_o otherwise_o by_o torment_n to_o bring_v they_o unto_o their_o end_n for_o the_o devil_n well_o know_v that_o when_o the_o blood_n or_o urine_n of_o the_o patient_a be_v burn_v that_o the_o witch_n will_v be_v afflict_v and_o then_o they_o will_v desire_v to_o come_v to_o the_o place_n for_o to_o get_v ease_n for_o by_o the_o smell_n thereof_o their_o pain_n be_v mitigate_v by_o sympathy_n even_o as_o by_o sympathy_n when_o the_o blood_n and_o urine_n be_v burn_v they_o be_v torment_v yet_o sometime_o they_o will_v rather_o endure_v the_o misery_n of_o it_o than_o appear_v by_o reason_n country_n people_n oft_o time_n will_v fall_v upon_o they_o and_o scratch_v and_o abuse_v they_o shrewd_o i_o conceive_v the_o only_a reason_n the_o devil_n do_v suck_v the_o witch_n blood_n be_v mere_o to_o detect_v they_o or_o otherwise_o one_o way_n or_o other_o to_o bring_v they_o to_o their_o end_n and_o sometime_o they_o be_v discover_v by_o their_o tet_n at_o which_o place_n the_o devil_n usual_o suck_v their_o blood_n whereby_o to_o mix_v with_o the_o poison_n which_o they_o by_o their_o wicked_a way_n do_v infuse_v into_o the_o body_n of_o man_n or_o beast_n and_o so_o infect_v they_o i_o do_v find_v by_o practice_n and_o experience_n that_o few_o or_o none_o be_v bewitch_v by_o image_n or_o moddel_n alone_o but_o that_o there_o be_v sorcery_n wrought_v with_o it_o for_o otherwise_o the_o burn_a of_o the_o blood_n or_o urine_n of_o the_o patient_n can_v no_o way_n afflict_v they_o in_o any_o sympathetick_a way_n as_o aforesaid_a have_v by_o the_o rule_n aforego_v set_v forth_o the_o way_n how_o to_o afflict_v the_o witch_n i_o shall_v in_o the_o next_o place_n discover_v the_o general_a way_n of_o cure_n the_o way_n to_o cure_v both_o

the_o grief_n or_o pain_n lie_v whether_o outward_a in_o any_o limb_n or_o part_n of_o the_o body_n or_o throughout_o the_o whole_a body_n as_o it_o will_v sometime_o fall_v out_o when_o the_o nerve_n
