CHAP. XV.

• 1. That reuelations by the bewitched in their sits or traunces are no sufficient proofe against a Witch.
• 2. That the declaration by the bewitched of secret markes in the bodies of suspected Witches are not iustifiable to be admitted as any true or allowable conuictions.
• 3. That the healing of the bewitched by the compelled touch or

• action of the supposed Witch is no reasonable accusation against any man, as therefore a Witch.
• 4. That there is no more necessitie of a miraculous detection of Witchcraft, then of any other as hideous and abominable sinne.
• 5. That the miracles and detections of crying and hideous sinnes by visions and apparitions cannot certainly or assuredly be ma∣nifested to be of God, and therefore simply in themselues, though reuealing truth they are not to be trusted or credited alone, but so farre forth as they doe point vnto, or occasion iust and reaso∣nable inquisition.

The conclusion of the whole Treatise inferring the two sorts of ma∣nifest Witches generally thorow the whole worke intended and by Demonstration made euident, to be the same, against whom the Law of God was directed, as also that there is no other triall of those Witches, but the meanes and waies in this Trea∣tise before mentioned.
