The Friendly Daemon, or the Generous Apparition / Being a True Narrative of a Miraculous Cure, Newly Perform'd Upon That Famous Deaf and Dumb Gentleman, Dr. Duncan Campbel, by a Familiar Spirit That Appear'd to Him in a White Surplice, Like a Cathedral Singing Boy

by Daniel Defoe

---

If by our Senses Spirits we perceive,

Or from the strength of Fancy, so believe,

No Fault do we commit that merits blame,

If to the Publick we report the same;

For whether by our Eyes we Spectres see

Or by a second Sight, we must agree,

Things are to us as they appear to be.
