A09118 A guide to grand-iury men diuided into two bookes: in the first, is the authors best aduice to them what to doe, before they bring in a billa vera in cases of witchcraft, with a Christian direction to such as are too much giuen vpon euery crosse to thinke themselues bewitched. In the second, is a treatise touching witches good and bad, how they may be knowne, euicted, condemned, with many particulars tending thereunto. By Rich. Bernard.

forenamed Popes and the satisfying of lust to the lecherous as he did to Gaufredy to whom the diuell gaue a seedule signed by himselfe comprehending the vertue and power of his breath to inflame any woman or maid with lust if he could but breathe on them This league is vttered either by word of mouth of such as cannot write or in writing by others and that by their owne bloud so did Faustus also the young m●n spoken of by Master Fox so haue others done as Bodin relateth and haue subscribed the band with their owne hands thus many haue confessed And Bodinus deliuereth it for a most certain truth that such as exercise the Art of Witchcraft of what kinde so euer if the Diuell haue visibly appeared do make an expresse league with Satan This league being thus made and sealed hee hath a sacrifice offered vnto him of some of others some as of their ordinary Witches hee desireth to sucke bloud for hee will haue his Couenant sealed with bloud one way or other He sucketh in diuers parts of the body as on the crowne of the head as the boyes of Bradley on the brests vnder the paps as Alison De●ices on the thighes as Mother Suttons and Mary her daughters vnder the right eare as Ioane Willimots vnder the left flanke as Hellen Greenes the necke as Philip Flowers in the secret parts as Margaret Flowers the chinne as Mother Samuels of Warboys Thus the diuels chuse their sucking places as they please which they doe as some haue confessed at the change or full of the Moone or when they are set on worke by the Witches Besides this sucking they leaue markes vpon them sometimes like a blue spot as it was on Alizon Deuice or like a little teate as it was on Mother Sutton and her daughter of Milton Milles in Bedfordshire These markes are not onely nor alwayes in the sucking place for the marke was not on Mother Samuels chinne of Warboys but they bee often in other very hidden places as vnder the eye-browes within the lips vnder arme-pits on the right shoulders thigh flanke in the secret parts and seate Now after all these assurances made betweene them that Satan may claime them for his owne then commeth he to be familiar with them All haue not one familiar spirit but some haue moe then others Some indeed haue but one as old Denob dike some haue two as Chattox Ionne Flower Willimot some three as one Arthur Bill some nine as Mother Samuels of Warboys To these they giue names such as I haue read of are these Mephastophilus Lucifer Little Lord Fimodes Dauid Inde Little Robin Smacke Lightfoote Non-such Lunch Make-shift Swart Pluck Blue Catch White Callico Hard name Tibb Hiff Ball Puss Rutterkin Dick Prettie Griffet and Iacke And they meet together to Christen the spirits as they speake when they giue the spirit a name By these familiar spirits they doe what they doe these they aske counsell of they send abroad to 〈◊〉 their desires if God giue leaue and they doe verily thinke that they haue these spirits at command vpon the making of this damnable and most abominable league to doe whatsoeuer they please to serthem about CHAP. VI. That such an expresse league is made with the Diuell why hee inticeth his vnto it and how it is possible that any Christian should so bee ouertaken to yeeld thereunto THough some may question the truth of this compact as if such a thing could bee gained at any mans hands that knoweth what a Diuell is euen mans mortall and irreconcileable enemy yet is this a certaine truth 1. From varietie of Scripture in Psal. 58.5 the words are to be read thus The mutterer ioyning societies cunningly that is the Witch with spirits 2. From the Hebrew word Chabor an Inchanter Deut. 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 18.11 Isal. 47.9 12. which signifieth one ioyned to another in league and societie Now what other can that be with whom the Inchanter is in league but the Diuell 3. From the confession of Witches generally Cyprian whether the ancient Father or no I am not certaine for some affirme some question it confidently from his owne knowledge auerreth is that all make the league as he once did when he practised art Magicke The story of Faustus confirmeth it and all the relations of Witches with vs as before is noted in the other Chapter 4. And lastly the markes found vpon Witches and also the bloudy bonds sometime doe strengthen the truth-hereof For the young mans bond of whom Master Fox speaketh was thrown into the Assembly gathered together in prayer for his deliuerie from Satan If any arke why Satan so laboureth for this Couenant I answer It may be I. To anger the Lord in imitating him as h●e labours to doe in all things but yet therein to oppose him for as God maketh a Couenant with his so will the diuell with his as God hath his sea●e of his Couenant so will the diuell haue his markes as God confirmeth his by bloud so will the Diuell haue bloud to ratifie the Couenant which he and his make 2. To increase the sinne of the Witches to make them desperately wicked without hope of mercy when they shall remember how they haue renounced God and 〈◊〉 themselues to the diuell and thereby haue prouoked the iust wra●h of God to their vtter dam●●tion which is that which Satan herein labours for 3. To make them hereby surely his owne without starting backe if possibly it may be 4. To beguile them the more cunningly when hereby hee maketh them beleeue that as they are his so now hee is theirs at euery call to be commanded and to doe what they would haue him to doe according to their lusts This conceit pleaseth them greatly by this they grow proud in heart that they haue spirits at command to tell them things to teach them cures to reuenge their wrong to worke feare of themselues in others to haue in many things their wils and desires by these are they so fast tyed as they alwayes hold on this hellish trade euen to death except the Lord preuent some with his more speciall grace If any wonder how it may be possible that any reasonable soule endued with any knowledge of God and of the nature of a Diuell should thus be enthralled let him weigh these things 1. That man hath lost the image of God in which he was created and is wholly polluted with sinne and corruption 2. That hereby he is become of very neere kinne vnto the Diuell euen his owne babe 3. That being his child he will doe his fathers lusts and that no doubt in one thing as well as in another for men loue darknesse more then the light yea and naturally are giuen to worke all vncleannesse euen with greedinesse so captiuated are they to their lusts 4. That man giuen ouer to his vnruly
without any association of Witches IT is too common a receiued errour amongst the vulgars yea and amongst not a few persons of better capacitie that if any bee vexed by a spirit that such are bewitched But it is a cleere truth that the Diuell may afflict man or woman their children and their ca●el without the knowledge consent or association with any Witch 1. The History of the Euangelists accuse the diuell and vncleane spirits for all the vexations torments and tortures which many possessed endured and not a word of any Witch to set the Diuell on worke 2. The people which brought the possessed to our Sauiour complained onely of the Diuell Matth. 15.22 Luk. 9.39 They made no mention of Witches nor for any thing wee reade had any suspition of them 3. We finde that God hath often sent the Diuell as the Executioner of his displeasure without any means of a Witch as amongst the Egyptians hee sent euill angels as before I haue shewed out of Psal. 78.49 betweene Ahim●lech and the Sichemites Iubg 9.23 So vpon Saul 1. Sam. 16.15 And so were a Legion sent by Christ into an Herd of Swine Mar. 5 12. Thus we see Diuels sent immediately from God without any instigation of Witches who are giuen ouer of God into the hands of the Diuell neither doth God vse them as his instruments to worke by as hee doth by Deuils and other wicked men in other cases as hee did by Nabuchadnezzer with his hoste so by Cyrus and others to punish by them whom he had determined so to deale with 4. We reade that the Diuell entred into the Serpent when there was yet no Witch Gen. 3. Hee when God gaue him leaue entred into the Sabaeans and Chaldeans to rob Iob of his cattel Hee burnt his sheepe with fire blew down the house vpon all Iobs children and killed them and at length tormented Iobs bodie and affrighted him with visions and dreames Iob 1. 2. 7.12 and without any setting on by a Witch 5. The Scripture telleth vs that Satan needs no prouoker to set him forward for the text saith that hee compasseth the world to and fro Iob 1. and goeth vp and downe like a roaring Lyon seeking whom hee may deuoure 1. Pet. 5. Hee is ready if God giue way to be a lying spirit in the mouthes of Ahabs Prophets to seduce him 1. King 22. and to beguile them 6. Lastly the Diuell may take possession of a man or woman not by the instigation of another but this may come to passe by the very parties owne default that is possessed by inuocating the Diuell as to say The Diuell take mee or Would the Diuell had me if a thing be not so and so which may bee spoken in so vnhappy a time as God may giue the Diuell then leaue to enter of which there haue beene examples 2. By intermeddling with curious Arts and so become possessed of a Diuell 3. Or by buying a familiar spirit as a Gentleman did a Ring of another wherein was as he was told a familiar inclosed of whom hee would know many things Which Ring bee at length being displeased with the spirit for telling him many lyes one day cast into the fire vpon which the spirit seazed vpon him and became his tormentor A iust plague to such as would conferre heare and learne of a Diuell 4. Such as will increase their skill by Satan as Hermolans Barbarus did and as the Chymicke mekets seeking the Philosophers stone but failing by their Art haue asked counsell of the Diuell as Bodinus relateth from an approued witnesse it is iust with God to let the Diuell possesse some of them Thus we see the Diuell may bee the sole Agent without the fellowship of a Witch And therefore this point the Gentlemen of the Grand-Iury are to take into their serious consideration lest some be vniustly prosecuted and condemned when the diuell onely is the deede-doer as they may see in the many instances before set downe in holy Writ and may bee read in other Histories Also if such as be afflicted or their friends would consider with themselues how that Satan may be the sole worker i● would 1. Make Atheisticall hearts to shake off securitie and worke in them a dread feare of God when they shall consider a fiend of Hell not sent of a Witch but of God to be their tormentor 2. This would cause them to seeke to God for helpe in the first place knowing that he onely and none but hee can ouerrule and command Satan and make him to giue ouer his practices 3. If there be any grace in them it will cause them to vse holy meanes such onely as God alloweth of as remedies to helpe them as fasting and prayer with a searching of their wayes and the reformation of their liues 4. In this case they neither can tell how nor dare to imagine which way to bee reuenged of the Diuell as the vaine generation of men labour● to bee reuenged vpon suspected Witches for sending the Diuell vpon which Witches onely they fly with violence like raging ●ygers in heart thinking so to remoue a Diuell from them neglecting irreligiously the former sanctified meanes for their comfortable deliuerance But you will perhaps heere aske how one may know that Satan is the onely Agent without the consent of a Witch I answer 1. If there be not any suspition at all of a Witch but onely some apparition of a spirit as I could giue herein a very rare instance of an afflicted person neere by me 2. If there be a suspition yet the same not iust but an idle vaine and foolish suspition without any good ground of which idle suspitions you shall heare in the next Booke 3. If the suspition be vpon great probabilities and very strong presumptions yet vnlesse these doe leade to proue that the suspected hath made a league and compact with the Diuell hee worketh not with them but is the sole Agent for without this league hee will not bee an Agent for Witches How to proue this league see the second booke chap. 18. 4. If the suspected be proued a Witch by making the league yet for all this it may be the Diuell alone except it can be proued that the suspected Witch or Witches haue procured Satan to afflict those for whose cause they are prosecuted For although they be Witches yet it will not therefore follow that euery one afflicted in their bodies or in their children or in their seruants or in their cattel by Satan are so vexed by the procurement of those Witches except vpon further proofe which must bee inquired after as the proofe of their falling out their malice in bitter cursing their threates to bee reuenged of them therefore telling of euils to befall them the ●ll accidents which happen thereupon presently on a sudden or in a very short time of which more at large in the other Booke chap. 17. Thus by these may
way that they will ouer-diligently gather matter to strengthen their suspicions some out from meere imagination some from words deeds taken in the worst sense some from the sight of some creature on a sudden as a Cat Weasell Polcar or such like late in the euening where they saw not any before some from idle relations of superstitious neighbours some from accidents hapning vpon others vpon a suspected person and their falling out if the pursuers be of some abilitie to these shall bee added the too confident auouching of some flatterers that such an one is a Witch and all tending to further the rage of the pursuer to bring the suspected to his or her end VII Because there may concurre many seeming probabilities which commonly mis lead many for want of iudgement and for want of throughly weighing the weight of them in such a case taking such presumptions for sufficient proofe when they are nothing so VIII And lastly for want of deepe search into the subtilty of Satan who as is proued often worketh without any association or league with the Witch yea as is also before declared the diseases or death of men or beasts may be meerely naturall and no work of Satan therein at all and yet euen in these things he hath his mischieuous deuices to make them to be cast vpon some man or woman altogether innocent of the same and thus he doth it He knoweth when his power is granted him of God to doe hurt to man or beast also hee knoweth the growing of a naturall disease in man or beast he knoweth the ripening thereof at what time it will breake out Now marke before his owne act or that in nature breake out he stirreth vp some occasion to make the party man or woman to be afflicted in their persons or cattel to fall out with some angry neighbor man or woman either immediately or some smal time before that so this act of his owne or of nature may be imputed vnto that angry waspish-natured shrewd-tongued neighbours so come to bee reputed a Witch which hee hauing gained by two or three such pestilent practices he setteth wicked people on to follow such an one to death that innocent blou● may be shed many become guilty thereof which he thirsteth after A mischi●uous subtiltie of all the wise-hearted Grand-Iury Gentlemen seriously to be considered of And this should make angry malicious natures such as be giuen to cursing railing and bitter speeches to be reformed euen in this respect lest God punish them by giuing them ouer vnto this bloudy practise of Satan to their shame and destruction For these reasons it happeneth that it is an hard thing to discouer the practices of Witchcraft without more diligen● search then is commonly vsed to detect Witches CHAP. XVII That there are some great presumptions of a Witch for which he or shee may be brought before authoritie to be examined I Will not heere trouble my selfe to set downe the many surmises of people that such such are Witches because they be the vain cōceits of the addle-headed of silly fooles or of ●rattling gossips or of superstitiously fearfull or of fansiefull Melancholicks or of discomposed and crazed wits as a Diuine speaketh But heere I will set downe such probabilities as may iustly cause the suspected to be questioned as these I. To be much giuen to cursing and imprecations vpon light occasion and withall to vse threatnings to be reuenged And presently thereupon euill to happen and this not once or twice to one or two but often and to diuers persons This is a great presumption all these circumstances withall considered because Satan offers himselfe as before is shewed vnto such and such meanes wee finde that Witches vse to bewitch men and beasts yet is this but a presumption for that many are so bitter spirited that they will curse ban threaten reuenge and yet be no Witches Also Satan is subtill as is noted in the former Chapter to make vse of Gods leaue giuen to himselfe and of the working of naturall diseases which vpon cursings breake out as is caused thereby II. An implicit confession when any come accuse them for vexing them hurting them or their cattell they shall hereupon say You should haue let me alone then as Anne Baker a Witch said vnto one Miles or I haue not hurt you yet as Mother Samuel said to the Lady Cromwell when she caused her haire to be burnt or to say to one I will promise you that I will doe you no hurt vpon this or that condition as others haue said These kinde of speeches are in manner of confession of their power of hurting and yet but a presumption because such speeches haue beene and are vsed vpon diuers occasions by others which are no Witches III. The suspecteds diligent inquiry after the sicke party and an ouer-inquisitiuenesse to know how such an one doth falling sicke presently vpon his or her cursing and threatning with the suspecteds comming to visit him or her vnsent for especially after they be forbidden the house Thus haue those done which haue beene found condemned for Witches yet but a presumption because mans heart being reuengefull and hauing cursed and threatned and hearing of some sudden mischance is so taken vp with a cursed ioy as maketh him or her thus to do and yet by no league with the Diuell For Salomons words may not onely bee applyed to Witches but euen to all others as an inbred euil in mans heart Reioyce not at the fall of thine enemy And for comming being forbidden it is the impudency of some of the poorer sort rude and ill-mannered to doe so and to bring some small thing to curry fauour againe IV. The naming of the suspected in their fits and also where they haue been what they haue done here or there as Master Throgmortons children could doe and that often and euer found true This is a great presumption yet is this but a presumption because this is only the diuels testimony who can lye and that more often then speake truth Christ would not allow his witnesse of him in a point most true nor Saint Paul in the due praises of him and Sylas His witnesse then may not be receiued as sufficient in case of ones life He may accuse an innocent as I shewed before out of M. Edmunds giuing ouer his practice to finde stolne goods And Satan wee reade would accuse Iob to God himselfe to bee an hypocrite and to be ready to bee a blasphemer And hee is called the Accuser of the Brethren Albeit I cannot deny but this hath very often proued true yet seeing the diuell is such an one as you heard Christian men should not take his witnesse to giue in a verdict vpon oath and so sweare that the D●u●ll hath therein spoken the truth Be it far from good men to confirme any word of the diuell by oath if it bee not
Lords doings and sayings and therein striues to be like him The truth of these things on Gods part is euident out of the holy Scripture on Satans part the truth is set out before in these two bookes confirmed by many testimonies in the Margin euery where The end of publishing these not hitherto set forth by any is to shew some ground of those things which wee finde related in the writings of men and to be don● between Witches and Deuils which otherwise may seeme to be beyond all credit an● to be reiected as fabulous which if Wierus Scot and others had known diligently weighed they had not so lightly esteemed of the true relations of learned men and imputed the strange actions vndoubtedly done by Witches and Deuils only to brainesicke Concei●s and mad Melancholie FINIS Acts 12.23 Iob 1.11 2.5 Reu. 16.11 Scot Disc. of Witch p. 1.2 2.
