So did he to appear to M.Earl of Colchester in the
sickness of M.Liddae, a Holy man of God, and
to the Turkish Chuous Baptized at London Anno
1690 pretending to be M.Dury an excellent minister
of Christ. And how often hath he pretended
to be the Apostle Saul or Peter or some celebrated(t)
Saint? Ecclesiastical histories abound with
instances of that nature. Yea, sometimes he has trans-
figured himself into the form of Christ. It is reported
that he appeared to (r)Saint Martin, gloriously
arrayed as if he had been Christ. So Sikenise to
(s)Secundelley and to another Saint, who suspecting it was
Satan transforming himself into an Angel of
Light; had this expression. "If I may see Christ in
Heaven, tis enough for me not to see him in this
world", whereupon the Specter vanished. It has
been related of Luther, that after he had been
fasting and praying in his study the Devil came
and pretended to be Christ, but Luther said
"Away thou confounded Devil. I  acknowledge no
Christ but what is in my Bible". Nothing more was seen,
thus though the Devil is able to (by divine
permission) to change himself into what form
or figure he pleases. "Omnia transformat
fefe in miracula rerum".

12:10, where the Devil is called "the accuser of the
Brethren". Such is the malice and impudence
of the Devil as that he does accuse good men of
