that_o they_o can_v make_v show_v as_o though_o they_o do_v they_o but_o be_v you_o of_o this_o mind_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v as_o many_o or_o all_o those_o harm_n do_v by_o deville_n if_o there_o be_v no_o witch_n as_o there_o be_v now_o although_o i_o must_v needs_o confess_v that_o the_o witch_n can_v give_v the_o devil_n no_o power_n nor_o he_o can_v take_v none_o by_o their_o

craftiness_n of_o devil_n be_v such_o as_o without_o the_o light_n of_o god_n word_n the_o wise_a man_n under_o heaven_n must_v needs_o be_v deceive_v thereby_o we_o see_v there_o be_v some_o man_n so_o deép_v in_o subtlety_n and_o can_v carry_v matter_n so_o close_o that_o man_n can_v not_o discern_v they_o how_o much_o more_o the_o deville_n which_o be_v exceéd_o subtle_a &_o crafty_a above_o the_o subtle_a man_n the_o question_n which_o you_o ask_v be_v in_o my_o judgement_n somewhat_o hard_o but_o this_o be_v undoubted_a that_o if_o the_o lord_n god_n do_v give_v unto_o the_o devil_n often_o power_n to_o hurt_v because_o of_o the_o witch_n i_o mean_v because_o the_o devil_n do_v deal_v by_o such_o instrument_n it_o be_v in_o his_o heavy_a judgement_n against_o the_o wickedness_n of_o the_o people_n which_o despise_v the_o true_a and_o heavenly_a light_n of_o his_o word_n as_o s._n paul_n prophesy_v of_o the_o come_n of_o the_o great_a antichrist_n show_v that_o because_o man_n do_v not_o receive_v the_o love_n of_o the_o truth_n god_n give_v the_o devil_n power_n by_o antichrist_n and_o his_o minister_n to_o seduce_v by_o lie_a sign_n and_o wonder_n indeéd_v i_o will_v not_o say_v that_o for_o the_o witch_n the_o devil_n have_v power_n give_v he_o but_o for_o the_o wickedness_n of_o the_o people_n which_o deserve_v that_o by_o witch_n the_o devil_n shall_v have_v power_n to_o seduce_v they_o further_o here_o yet_o we_o must_v take_v heed_n of_o the_o common_a error_n which_o a_o multitude_n be_v carry_v so_o headlong_o withal_o that_o they_o can_v by_o no_o mean_n see_v that_o god_n be_v provoke_v by_o their_o sin_n to_o give_v the_o devil_n such_o instrument_n to_o work_v withal_o but_o rage_n against_o the_o witch_n even_o as_o if_o she_o can_v
