i_o hear_v how_o he_o do_v use_v i_o in_o truth_n husband_n my_o stomach_n do_v so_o rise_v against_o she_o that_o i_o can_v have_v find_v in_o my_o heart_n to_o have_v fly_v upon_o she_o and_o scratch_v she_o but_o that_o i_o fear_v she_o will_v be_v too_o strong_a for_o i_o it_o be_v a_o lusty_a old_a quean_n i_o wish_v that_o the_o good_a wife_n r._n have_v be_v with_o i_o i_o pray_v you_o good_a husband_n let_v i_o entreat_v you_o to_o go_v to_o that_o same_o good_a woman_n you_o may_v ride_v thither_o in_o half_a a_o day_n sam._n wife_n i_o pray_v thou_o be_v content_a i_o have_v entreat_v this_o my_o old_a friend_n to_o reason_n with_o m._n b._n for_o he_o tell_v i_o that_o we_o be_v in_o a_o very_a foul_a error_n m._n b._n i_o suppose_v so_o far_o as_o my_o learning_n and_o capacity_n do_v extend_v that_o small_a reason_n may_v serve_v the_o word_n of_o god_n do_v show_v plain_o that_o there_o be_v witch_n &_o command_v they_o shall_v be_v put_v to_o death_n experience_n have_v teach_v too_o too_o many_o what_o harm_n they_o do_v and_o if_o any_o have_v the_o gift_n to_o minister_v help_n against_o they_o shall_v we_o refuse_v it_o shall_v we_o not_o drink_v when_o we_o be_v a_o thirst_n shall_v we_o not_o warm_v we_o when_o we_o be_v a_o cold_a it_o be_v pity_n that_o any_o man_n shall_v open_v his_o mouth_n any_o way_n to_o defend_v they_o their_o impiety_n be_v so_o great_a dan._n for_o my_o part_n i_o go_v not_o about_o to_o defend_v witch_n i_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o the_o devil_n work_v by_o they_o and_o that_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v put_v to_o death_n we_o ought_v also_o to_o seek_v remedy_n against_o they_o but_o as_o i_o tell_v my_o friend_n the_o devil_n do_v bewitch_v man_n by_o mean_n of_o these_o witch_n and_o lead_v they_o from_o god_n even_o to_o follow_v himself_o to_o offer_v sacrifice_n unto_o he_o to_o worship_v he_o to_o obey_v his_o will_n to_o commit_v many_o grievous_a sin_n and_o to_o be_v drown_v in_o manifold_a error_n m._n b._n if_o you_o have_v this_o meaning_n that_o witch_n and_o sorcerer_n be_v bewitch_v by_o the_o devil_n that_o they_o forsake_v god_n and_o follow_v he_o that_o they_o worship_n and_o obey_v he_o and_o do_v sacrifice_n unto_o he_o and_o commit_v many_o heinous_a sin_n i_o agreé_v with_o you_o for_o i_o take_v it_o they_o even_o vow_v themselves_o to_o the_o devil_n or_o else_o he_o will_v not_o be_v so_o ready_a to_o do_v they_o service_n but_o if_o you_o mean_v that_o such_o as_o seek_v remedy_n against_o they_o &_o will_v have_v they_o root_v out_o be_v so_o seduce_v and_o mislead_v by_o the_o devil_n as_o you_o speak_v i_o say_v your_o speech_n be_v rash_a and_o foolish_a for_o they_o that_o be_v earnest_a against_o witch_n be_v earnest_n against_o the_o devil_n they_o defy_v the_o devil_n they_o seek_v to_o resist_v he_o and_o to_o root_v out_o his_o instrument_n now_o if_o you_o be_v a_o man_n that_o have_v any_o learning_n you_o shall_v see_v that_o contrary_n can_v be_v in_o the_o same_o subject_n at_o one_o instant_a in_o the_o same_o part_n and_o in_o the_o same_o respect_n how_o then_o can_v a_o man_n hate_v the_o devil_n defy_v the_o devil_n and_o his_o work_n and_o yet_o follow_v he_o at_o one_o time_n dan._n i_o know_v that_o witch_n and_o conjurer_n be_v seduce_v and_o become_v the_o vassal_n of_o satan_n they_o be_v his_o servant_n and_o not_o he_o they_o as_o you_o speak_v but_o i_o mean_v indeed_o that_o multitude_n be_v seduce_v and_o lead_v from_o god_n to_o follow_v the_o devil_n by_o mean_n of_o witch_n &_o conjurer_n yea_o i_o speak_v it_o of_o those_o not_o which_o be_v carry_v of_o a_o godly_a zeal_n but_o of_o a_o blind_a rage_n and_o mad_a fury_n against_o they_o if_o i_o speak_v this_o rash_o and_o foolish_o as_o you_o say_v and_o yourself_o learned_a as_o you_o boast_v and_o i_o unlearned_a i_o shall_v be_v the_o more_o easy_o overthrow_v but_o i_o speak_v so_o true_o and_o can_v so_o well_o justify_v all_o that_o i_o have_v say_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o your_o learning_n and_o best_a skill_n shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o disproove_v the_o same_o your_o logic_n at_o the_o first_o do_v fail_v you_o not_o that_o contrary_n can_v be_v in_o the_o same_o subject_n at_o the_o same_o instant_n in_o the_o same_o part_n and_o in_o the_o same_o respect_n but_o herein_o you_o be_v utter_o blind_a and_o deceive_v that_o you_o name_v contrary_n and_o take_v it_o that_o the_o first_o of_o they_o as_o namely_o to_o hate_v the_o devil_n to_o defy_v he_o and_o his_o work_n be_v in_o they_o when_o as_o indeed_o they_o be_v in_o they_o but_o in_o imagination_n for_o if_o man_n say_v and_o think_v they_o defy_v the_o devil_n and_o his_o work_n and_o through_o blindness_n and_o infidelity_n be_v even_o bewitch_v and_o seduce_v to_o follow_v the_o devil_n and_o to_o do_v his_o will_n do_v their_o speech_n and_o blind_a imagination_n make_v the_o thing_n indeed_o to_o be_v in_o they_o what_o if_o a_o poor_a beggar_n woman_n say_v and_o think_v that_o she_o be_v a_o queen_n be_v she_o therefore_o no_o beggar_n beg_v still_o her_o bread_n or_o be_v she_o rid_v of_o her_o lice_n m._n b._n nay_o if_o you_o judge_v i_o have_v do_v if_o man_n be_v earnest_a against_o the_o devil_n and_o defy_v he_o and_o all_o his_o work_n be_v you_o to_o judge_v of_o their_o conscience_n and_o to_o say_v they_o defy_v he_o but_o in_o imagination_n and_o follow_v he_o and_o worship_v he_o in_o deed_n be_v not_o god_n alone_o the_o judge_n over_o man_n heart_n again_o do_v you_o compare_v those_o that_o be_v in_o their_o right_a mind_n with_o such_o as_o be_v mad_a or_o out_o of_o their_o wit_n dan._n i_o know_v that_o god_n alone_o be_v the_o searcher_n of_o the_o heart_n touch_v the_o thing_n which_o lie_v hide_v in_o secret_a but_o where_o thing_n be_v open_a and_o manifest_a the_o tree_n be_v know_v by_o the_o fruit_n so_o far_o as_o we_o may_v go_v as_o if_o a_o man_n profess_v the_o faith_n of_o jesus_n christ_n sound_o in_o all_o point_n according_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o do_v frame_v his_o life_n thereafter_o in_o do_v good_a work_n it_o be_v very_o wicked_a for_o any_o man_n to_o judge_v of_o he_o that_o he_o be_v a_o hypocrite_n and_o that_o he_o do_v all_o of_o vain_a glory_n and_o yet_o it_o may_v be_v that_o the_o lord_n who_o discern_v the_o secret_a intent_n of_o the_o heart_n see_v indeed_o that_o he_o be_v but_o a_o hypocrite_n on_o the_o contrary_a part_n where_o a_o man_n profess_v in_o word_n that_o he_o do_v defy_v the_o devil_n and_o all_o his_o work_n and_o yet_o when_o it_o come_v to_o the_o trial_n of_o god_n word_n he_o be_v find_v to_o be_v seduce_v and_o wrap_v in_o blind_a error_n of_o the_o devil_n in_o infidelity_n and_o evil_a work_n in_o which_o he_o fulfil_v the_o will_n of_o satan_n and_o honour_v he_o in_o the_o place_n of_o god_n shall_v we_o say_v that_o this_o be_v a_o good_a man_n because_o of_o his_o word_n and_o imagination_n that_o he_o defi_v the_o devil_n and_o his_o work_n woe_n be_v to_o they_o that_o call_v good_a evil_a and_o evil_a good_a esa._n 5._o we_o may_v say_v they_o be_v in_o bad_a case_n except_o they_o repent_v and_o turn_v from_o follow_v satan_n but_o yet_o i_o say_v that_o a_o faithful_a man_n may_v err_v in_o some_o of_o these_o thing_n through_o weakness_n of_o faith_n and_o through_o ignorance_n and_o therefore_o here_o man_n may_v not_o be_v too_o rash_a in_o judgement_n and_o now_o whereas_o you_o find_v fault_n that_o i_o make_v comparison_n between_o such_o as_o be_v mad_a and_o those_o that_o be_v in_o their_o right_a mind_n it_o be_v your_o ignorance_n which_o do_v not_o consider_v that_o there_o be_v two_o kind_n of_o madness_n or_o be_v out_o of_o their_o right_a mind_n the_o one_o for_o matter_n of_o this_o world_n the_o other_o for_o thing_n spiritual_a and_o heavenly_a there_o be_v which_o be_v in_o their_o wit_n for_o this_o world_n which_o touch_v spiritual_a thing_n be_v as_o far_o awry_o in_o their_o imagination_n as_o the_o poor_a beggar_n which_o think_v she_o be_v a_o goodly_a queen_n do_v not_o the_o holy_a apostle_n say_v that_o because_o man_n receive_v not_o the_o love_n of_o the_o truth_n god_n will_v send_v they_o strong_a delusion_n to_o believe_v lie_n 2._o thess._n 2._o and_o what_o
