To Pat
‘The fables of Witchcraft have taken so fast hold and deepe root in
the heart of man, that fewe or none can (nowadaies) with patience
indure the hand and correction of God. For if any adversitie,
greefe, sickness, losse of children, corne, cattell, or libertie happen
unto them; by & by they exclaime uppon witches. As though there
were no God in Israel that ordereth all things according to his will;
punishing both just and unjust with greefs, plagues, and affl ictions
in maner and forme as he thinketh good.’
Reginald Scot,
The Discoverie of Witchcraft
