these
Witches
by

to
Physitians
,
but
more
prejudicall
to
their
patients
who
beleeues
in

for
preventing
of
such
wickednesse
:
Iudges
should
obey
Gods
word
,
not
to
suffer
a
Witch
to
liue
,
and
but

of
persons
,
should

,
if
thou
bee
wise
.
If
thy
horse
want
meat
in
thy
default
,
when
thou
rydes
a
journey
,
his
weaknesse
,
and
sweatnesse
,
and
hinderance
of
thy
journey
,
will
put
thee
in
remembrance
to
feed
him
better
in
time
comming
or

resolue
to
goe
on
thy

.
If

A
man
that
will
not
cherish
his

,
and
keepe
at
home
with
her
but
forgets
these
dueties
,
it
may
be
shee
can
make
moyen
for
her selfe
,
to
supplie
thy

necessitie
shall
remember
them
to
seeke
backe
their

Let
Gods
benefits
in
this
life
,
and
the
joyes
of
Heaven
in
the
life
to
come
,
make
thee
repent
thee
of
thy
sinfull
life
:
flee

,
resist
the
Devill
,
feare
GOD
,
and
keepe

commandements
:
So

happie
,
and
thy
peace
in
