be_v at_o home_n i_o suppose_v they_o can_v intoxicate_a &_o poison_v man_n when_o they_o be_v in_o prison_n neither_o do_v the_o judge_n authority_n of_o itself_o nor_o the_o place_n bring_v any_o impediment_n thereto_o for_o proof_n of_o which_o my_o opinion_n i_o may_v bring_v this_o in_o that_o satan_n himself_o have_v strangle_v many_o sorcerer_n in_o prison_n or_o beat_v they_o to_o death_n with_o his_o fist_n and_o also_o when_o they_o have_v be_v condemn_v by_o the_o judge_n and_o lay_v up_o fast_o in_o prison_n he_o have_v bring_v they_o to_o death_n and_o hang_v whereof_o i_o can_v recite_v unto_o you_o almost_o infinite_a example_n howbeit_o it_o seem_v unto_o i_o that_o sorcerer_n when_o they_o be_v in_o prison_n can_v no●_n intoxicate_a for_o two_o cause_n the_o first_o be_v for_o that_o they_o can_v commodious_o come_v by_o their_o poison_n when_o they_o be_v in_o prison_n the_o second_o for_o that_o they_o dare_v not_o confer_v bold_o with_o satan_n their_o instructor_n and_o master_n for_o they_o fear_v that_o they_o be_v watch_v beside_o they_o be_v bind_v and_o tie_v and_o they_o can_v have_v their_o poison_n but_o they_o must_v have_v a_o witness_n thereof_o that_o be_v the_o keeper_n of_o the_o prison_n to_o pry_v and_o see_v what_o they_o do_v and_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o they_o fear_v most_o that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v espy_v of_o the_o judge_n so_o that_o for_o the_o most_o part_n sorcerer_n while_o they_o be_v in_o prison_n hurt_v no_o body_n wherefore_o wise_a and_o diligent_a judge_n have_v herein_o a_o special_a regard_n to_o come_v upon_o they_o sudden_o before_o they_o be_v look_v for_o to_o search_v and_o try_v they_o final_o sorcerer_n be_v afeared_a to_o use_v their_o poison_n when_o they_o be_v bind_v and_o in_o hold_n lest_o they_o shall_v be_v convict_v thereof_o which_o may_v be_v easy_o do_v for_o sorcerer_n be_v a_o most_o fearful_a and_o cowardly_a kind_n of_o people_n have_v renounce_v god_n wherefore_o they_o be_v wary_a and_o look_v very_o circumspect_o to_o themselves_o anthony_n uere_o theophilus_n you_o have_v bring_v i_o whole_o into_o your_o opinion_n wherefore_o now_o i_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v sorcerer_n and_o that_o they_o can_v intoxicate_a and_o work_v those_o infinite_a mischief_n which_o you_o have_v recite_v but_o now_o in_o the_o end_n i_o pray_v you_o declare_v unto_o i_o what_o punishment_n these_o wicked_a and_o false_a man_n to_o god_n deserve_v to_o have_v the_o .v._o chapter_n what_o punishment_n sorcerer_n deserve_v to_o have_v theophilus_n it_o be_v not_o my_o duty_n anthony_n to_o make_v or_o set_v forth_o law_n which_o king_n and_o prince_n in_o every_o city_n may_v do_v only_o moreover_o the_o trade_n and_o custom_n of_o man_n have_v so_o prevail_v now_o a_o day_n that_o the_o punishment_n for_o wickedness_n be_v almost_o now_o all_o at_o will_n and_o pleasure_n this_o much_o therefore_o i_o can_v answer_v you_o that_o sorcerer_n be_v worthy_a of_o the_o common_a and_o open_a hatred_n of_o all_o man_n of_o what_o sort_n soever_o they_o be_v in_o that_o they_o be_v the_o open_a enemy_n of_o mankind_n and_o of_o god_n that_o create_v they_o for_o they_o be_v most_o wicked_a runagate_n from_o the_o faith_n false_a forswearer_n of_o god_n power_n traitor_n to_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n most_o vile_a starter_n a_o side_n most_o foul_o unfaithful_a to_o god_n most_o filthy_a drudge_n to_o the_o devil_n final_o most_o horrible_a devilish_a witch_n and_o deceiver_n wherefore_o the_o magistrate_n may_v very_o well_o punish_v the_o sorcerer_n both_o as_o a_o witch_n and_o as_o a_o runagate_n from_o the_o faith_n because_o both_o he_o have_v forsake_v god_o his_o creator_n and_o open_o go_v into_o the_o field_n and_o take_v part_n with_o satan_n whereby_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n a_o sorcerer_n be_v condemn_v to_o die_v deut._n the_o eighteen_o chapter_n and_o ten_o verse_n

anthony_n i_o marvel_v therefore_o that_o at_o this_o present_a there_o be_v some_o judge_n so_o partial_a or_o rather_o unfréendly_a to_o all_o mankind_n that_o they_o be_v afeared_a or_o rather_o
