THE
DISPLAYING
OF SUPPOSED
WITCHCRAFT.
Wherein is affirmed that there are many sorts of
Deceivers and Impostors,
AND
Divers persons under a passive Delusion of
MELANCHOLY and FANCY.
But that there is a Corporeal League made betwixt the
DEVIL and the WITCH,
Or that he sucks on the Witches Body, has Carnal Copulation, or that Witches are turned into Cats, Dogs, raise Tempests, or the like, is utterly denied and disproved.
Wherein also is handled,
The Existence of Angels and Spirits, the truth of Apparitions, the Nature of Astral and Sydereal Spirits, the force of Charms, and Philters; with other abstruse matters.
