‘_Question._ In what place of your body did the Diuell sucke of your bloude and whether did hee himselfe chuse the place, or did you yourselfe appoint him the place? ‘_Answere._ The place where the Diuell suckt my bloud was chosen by himselfe, and in that place, by continuall drawing, there is a thing in the forme of a Teate, at which the Diuell would sucke mee. And I asked the Diuell why he should sucke my bloud, and he sayd, it was to nourish him. ‘_Question._ Whether did you pull up your Coates or no, when the Diuell came to sucke you? ‘_Answere._ No. I did not, but the Diuell would put his head under my coates, and I did willingly suffer him to doe what he would. ‘_Question._ How long would the time bee, that the Diuell would continue sucking of you, and whether did you endure any paine, the time that hee was sucking of you? ‘_Answere._ He would be suckinge of me the continuance of a quarter of an houre, and when he suckt me I then felt no paine at all. ‘_Question._ What was the meaning that the Diuell, when he came unto you, would sometimes speake, and sometimes barke? ‘_Answere._ It is thus: when the Diuell spake to me, then hee was ready to doe for me what I bid him to doe; and when he came barking to mee, he then had done the mischiefe that I did bid him to doe for me.
