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

that_o take_v the_o effect_n of_o they_o to_o be_v great_a as_o many_o divine_n philosopher_n and_o physician_n do_v suppose_v no_o efficacy_n in_o they_o sole_o hold_v that_o quantitates_fw-la
