which_o before_o we_o have_v rehearse_v out_o of_o the_o book_n entitle_v the_o centiloquie_n that_o no_o astrologer_n be_v able_a by_o mere_a art_n without_o the_o help_n of_o a_o familiar_a spirit_n to_o foretell_v any_o particular_a event_n and_o which_o we_o observe_v out_o of_o ficinus_fw-la that_o those_o prediction_n stand_v not_o by_o learning_n but_o by_o some_o instinct_n and_o then_o it_o be_v apparent_a to_o all_o such_o as_o will_v not_o blindfold_v themselves_o that_o all_o astrological_a prediction_n of_o particular_a event_n concern_v the_o action_n of_o man_n be_v not_o natural_a but_o mere_a illusion_n of_o unclean_a spirit_n and_o that_o astrology_n so_o far_o as_o concern_v these_o prediction_n have_v no_o other_o end_n or_o use_v but_o only_o to_o serve_v as_o a_o instrument_n to_o magic_n this_o be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o these_o man_n who_o have_v most_o of_o all_o excel_v in_o astrology_n who_o in_o this_o case_n we_o be_v bind_v to_o believe_v before_o other_o now_o what_o will_v the_o knight_n say_v to_o these_o thing_n or_o which_o way_n will_v he_o turn_v himself_o he_o will_v perhaps_o devise_v a_o distinction_n between_o astrologer_n in_o old_a time_n and_o in_o these_o time_n but_o that_o will_v not_o help_v he_o for_o agrippa_n have_v open_v plain_o that_o old_a and_o new_a astrology_n be_v the_o same_o and_o proceed_v from_o he_o same_o principle_n by_o the_o same_o mean_n to_o the_o same_o end_n and_o all_o be_v to_o serve_v magic_a he_o will_v perhaps_o say_v as_o often_o in_o his_o book_n he_o do_v that_o astrology_n be_v condemn_v only_o as_o it_o be_v join_v with_o magic_n but_o neither_o will_v this_o help_v he_o for_o agrippa_n tell_v we_o that_o there_o be_v such_o affinity_n and_o cognation_n beteene_v they_o that_o as_o magic_n can_v be_v perform_v without_o astrology_n so_o astrology_n can_v have_v a_o his_o and_o perfection_n without_o magic_n so_o the_o difference_n be_v not_o much_o whether_o we_o call_v these_o prediction_n magical_a or_o astrological_a prediction_n nay_o will_v the_o knight_n say_v the_o magician_n though_o use_v astrology_n yet_o may_v proceed_v so_o far_o as_o to_o the_o conference_n with_o a_o unclean_a spirit_n but_o the_o astrologer_n may_v stay_v himself_o in_o his_o figure_n and_o proceed_v no_o further_o i_o answer_v that_o difference_n be_v not_o great_a in_o what_o degree_n he_o proceed_v so_o he_o proceed_v at_o all_o with_o the_o devil_n in_o his_o illusion_n but_o if_o he_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o a_o particular_a event_n whether_o that_o be_v by_o conference_n or_o by_o some_o other_o mean_n we_o be_v herein_o certify_v that_o this_o thing_n can_v be_v do_v by_o art_n and_o learning_n but_o by_o the_o help_n of_o a_o spirit_n take_v
