The shapes familiar to the Spirits of Saturn. ♄

THey appear for the most part with a tall, lean, and slender body, with an angry countenance, having four faces; one in the hinder part of the head, one on the former part of the head, and on each side nosed or beaked: there likewise ap∣peareth a face on each knee, of a black shining colour: their motion is the moving of the winde, with a kinde of earth∣quake: their signe is white earth, whiter then any Snow.

The particular forms are,

A King having a beard, riding on a Dragon.
An Old man with a beard.
An Old woman leaning on a staffe.
A Hog.
A Dragon.
An Owl.
A black Garment.
A Hooke or Sickle.
A Juniper-tree.
