Noting their essence nor their qualitie,
But of the spirites that piromancie calles,
And of the vigour of the geomanticke fiends. 45
I tell thee, Germane, magicke haunts the grounds,[1416]
And those strange necromantick spels
That worke such shewes and wondering in the world
Are acted by those geomanticke spirites
That Hermes calleth terræ filii. 50
The fierie spirits are but transparant shades,
That lightly passe as heralts to beare newes;
