as_o send_v by_o god_n as_o he_o send_v elias_n to_o ochosias_n king_n of_o israel_n who_o be_v sick_a send_v to_o consult_v with_o belzebub_n the_o god_n of_o echron_n may_v appear_v for_o that_o samuel_n be_v so_o true_a and_o certain_a in_o his_o prediction_n to_o saul_n which_o no_o witch_n no_o devil_n can_v ever_o have_v tell_v for_o though_o the_o wisdom_n and_o experience_n of_o the_o

can_v know_v mr._n perkins_n confess_v the_o devil_n can_v not_o foretell_v the_o exact_a time_n of_o saul_n death_n and_o therefore_o he_o answer_v that_o god_n reveal_v to_o the_o devil_n as_o his_o

appoint_v by_o god_n to_o work_v saul_n overthrow_n or_o that_o it_o be_v make_v know_v to_o he_o when_o it_o shall_v be_v do_v as_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o speech_n of_o samuel_n be_v true_a so_o these_o word_n of_o his_o why_o have_v thou_o disquiet_v i_o to_o bring_v i_o up_o may_v be_v also_o true_a which_o can_v be_v if_o it_o be_v speak_v by_o the_o devil_n or_o why_o shall_v the_o devil_n tell_v truth_n in_o all_o other_o thing_n else_o and_o lie_v only_o in_o this_o i_o know_v no_o reason_n doctor_n reynolds_n press_v these_o word_n against_o the_o appear_n of_o samuel_n thus_o if_o samuel_n i_o have_v say_v to_o they_o he_o have_v lie_v but_o samuel_n can_v not_o lie_v for_o samuel_n can_v not_o be_v disquiet_v nor_o raise_v by_o saul_n it_o be_v true_a god_n only_o raise_v samuel_n effectual_o but_o occasional_o saul_n may_v raise_v he_o but_o say_v doctor_n reynolds_n though_o saul_n be_v the_o occasion_n yet_o samuel_n can_v not_o true_o say_v that_o saul_n

also_o samuel_n beside_o we_o need_v not_o understand_v the_o disquiet_n of_o samuel_n mind_n but_o of_o his_o body_n by_o not_o suffer_v it_o to_o rest_v in_o peace_n after_o death_n according_a to_o the_o common_a and_o usual_a condition_n of_o mankind_n this_o sense_n the_o original_a will_n well_o bear_v again_o it_o can_v be_v believe_v that_o the_o devil_n will_v ever_o have_v preach_v so_o divine_a and_o excellent_a a_o sermon_n to_o saul_n which_o be_v able_a to_o have_v convert_v and_o bring_v he_o to_o repentance_n this_o be_v not_o the_o way_n for_o the_o devil_n to_o bring_v either_o saul_n or_o the_o woman_n to_o renounce_v god_n last_o the_o text_n do_v not_o say_v that_o the_o woman_n raise_v samuel_n yet_o it_o call_v he_o samuel_n and_o say_v that_o saul_n perceive_v

be_v a_o witch_n or_o conjurer_n or_o a_o false_a prophet_n his_o fault_n be_v that_o when_o god_n have_v tell_v he_o he_o shall_v not_o go_v to_o balak_n yet_o in_o his_o covetous_a heart_n he_o desire_v to_o go_v be_v tempt_v with_o the_o reward_n of_o divination_n and_o promise_n of_o promotion_n so_o that_o upon_o a_o second_o message_n from_o balak_n he_o stay_v the_o messenger_n to_o

to_o death_n or_o the_o like_a but_o in_o this_o text_n and_o nowhere_o else_o in_o scripture_n the_o sentence_n be_v only_o a_o prohibition_n negative_a thou_o shall_v not_o suffer_v a_o witch_n to_o
