[written in margin: 25 (s)ubi lupra p.113] [Camerarius, Wierus, Voehuis Lavalor & Lonius? [underlined]]. There is newly published a book (menioned in the (s/ Acta Editorum) wherein the author ([Neihard Valvafor?]) [Relates?] that a [illegible] Jew instructed him (only he would not attend his [instruc-tions?]) how to make a Magicall glass which should Represent any person or thing according as he should desire. If a Ma-gician by an inchanted glass can do this, they may as well by the help of a [demon?] cause false [Ideas?] of persons & things to be impressed on the Imaginations of bewitched persons. The blood & Spirits of a man that is bitten with a mad dog, are so invenomed as that strange Impressions are thereby made on his Imagination. Let him be brought into a Room where there is a looking glass, & he will (if put upon it) not only say but swears that he sees a dog, tho in truth there is no dogg it may be within 20 miles of him. And is it not then possible for the doggs of Hell so to perform the Imagina-tions of miserable creatures,
