The woman having three severall times conjured the Spirite, in such manner you have already heard; returned to bed againe with her husband: and _Frederigo_, who came as perswaded to sup with her, being supperlesse all this while; directed by the words of _Monna Tessa_ in hir praier, went into the Garden. At the foot of the Peach-tree, there he found the linnen cloth, with the two hot Capons, Bread, Egges, and a Bottle of Wine in it, all which he carried away with him, and went to Supper at better leysure. Oftentimes afterward, upon other meetings of _Frederigo_ and she together, they laughed heartily at her enchantment, and the honest beleefe of silly _John_. I cannot deny, but that some do affirme, that the Woman had turned the face of the Asses head towards _Fiesola_, and a Country Travailer passing by the Vine, having a long piked staffe on his necke; the staffe, (by chance) touched the head, and made it turne divers times about, & in the end faced _Florence_, which being the cal for _Frederigoes_ comming, by this meanes he was disappointed. In like manner some say, that _Monna Tessaes_ prayer for conjuring the Spirit, was in this order. _Spirit, Spirit, go thy way, And come againe some other day, It was not I that turnd the head, But some other. In our Bed Are John and I: Go from our dore, And see thou trouble us no more._ So that _Frederigo_ departed thence, both with the losse of his labour & supper. But a neighbour of mine, who is a woman of good yeares, told me, that both the one and other were true, as she her selfe heard, when she was a little Girle. And concerning the latter accident, it was not to _John_ of _Lorrayne_, but to another, named _John de Nello_, that dwelt at S. _Peters_ Gate, and of the same profession as _John_ of _Lorrayne_ was. Wherefore (faire Ladies) it remaineth in your owne choice, to entertain which of the two prayers you please, or both together if you will: for they are of extraordinary vertue in such strange occurrences, as you have heeretofore heard, and (upon doubt) may prove by experience. It shall not therefore be amisse for you, to learne them both by hart, for (peradventure) they may stand you in good sted, if ever you chance to have the like occasion. Peronella _hid a yong man her friend and Lover, under a great brewing Fat, upon the sodaine returning home of her Husband; who told her, that hee had solde the saide Fat, and brought him that bought it, to carry it away._ Peronella _replyed, that shee had formerly solde it unto another, who was nowe underneath it, to see whether it were whole and sound, or no. Whereupon, he being come forth from under it; she caused her Husband to make it neate and cleane, and so the last buyer carried it away._ The Second Novell.
