Nor may we make use of a white Healing witch (as they call them) to find out a black and a bloo- dy one. & how did men come to know that witches would be discovered in Such wayes as those which have been mentioned? If Satan himself was the first discoverer (as there is reason to believe) the ex- periment must needs have deceit in it. See Dr. Willet on Ex. 7 vers. 9. 5. If the testimony of a Bewitched or Possessed person is of validity as to what they see done to themselves then it is so as to Others whom they see afflicted no less than themselves.

If from Hea- ven let their testimony be received. But if they have their Knowledge from Hell tho possibly ther may be truth in what they affirm, they are not Loyall Witnesses. For the Law of God allows of no Re^velation from any other Spirit but himself; [crossed out] Isa.8.19 It is a Sin against God to make use of the Divels help to know that which Cannot be Other- wise known & I testifie against it as a great Transgression that may justly provoke the Holy one of Israel to Lett Loose Divels on the whole Land. &uk.
