SHee confesseth and saith, That shee hath a Spirit sucking on her in the forme of a white Rat, which keepeth her left breast, and hath so done for three or foure yeares, and concer∣ning the agreement betwixt her Spirit and her selfe, shee con∣fesseth and saith, That when it came first unto her, she gave her
soule to it, and it promised to doe her good, and cause Thomas Simpson to love her, if shee would suffer it to sucke her, which she agreed unto; and so the last, time it suckt was on Tuesday at night, the 23. of February.
Margaret Flower, at the same time confesseth, that she hath two familiar Spirits sucking on her, the one white, the other blacke spotted; the white sucked under her left breast, and the blacke spotted within the inward parts of her secrets. When shee first entertained them shee promised them her soule, and they covenanted to doe all things which shee commanded them, &c.
Shee further saith, That about the 30. of Ianuary last past, being Saturday, foure Devills appeared unto her in Lincolne Jayle, at eleven on twelve a clocke at midnight: The one stood at her beds feet, with a blacke head like an Ape, and spake un∣to her, but what, she cannot well remember, at which she was very angry because hee would speake no plainer, or let her un∣derstand his meaning: the other three were Rutterkin, Little Robin, and Spirit; but she never mistrusted them, nor suspected her selfe till then.
