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

therefore_o they_o ought_v always_o spiritual_o to_o watch_v and_o stand_v upon_o their_o guard_n lest_o their_o subtle_a and_o cruel_a enemy_n the_o devil_n take_v they_o unaware_o or_o by_o his_o

which_o be_v do_v he_o service_n such_o division_n and_o civil_a dissension_n as_o these_o will_v soon_o destroy_v his_o kingdom_n and_o therefore_o can_v probable_o be_v affirm_v of_o any_o prudent_a

and_o a_o breach_n from_o whence_o he_o necessary_o conclude_v that_o either_o satan_n do_v not_o cast_v out_o satan_n or_o else_o that_o his_o kingdom_n be_v divide_v and_o can_v stand_v but_o come_v to_o desolation_n but_o satan_n kingdom_n be_v not_o destroy_v nor_o bring_v to_o desolation_n therefore_o it_o be_v not_o divide_v against_o itself_o and_o consequent_o satan_n do_v not_o cast_v
