He that will saie, that these words; to wit, that Christ was taken up, &c: can hardlie be applied to a vision, let him turne to the prophesie of _Ezechiell_, and see the selfe-same words used in a vision: saving that where Christ is said to be taken up by the divell, _Ezechiell_ is taken up, and lifted up, and carried by the spirit of God, and yet in a vision. But they have lesse reason that build upon this sandie rocke, the supernaturall frame of transubstantiation; as almost all our witching writers doo. For _Sprenger_ & _Institor_ saie, that the divell in the likenesse of a falcon caught him up. _Danæus_ saith, it was in the similitude of a man; others saie, of an angell painted with wings; others, invisiblie: _Ergo_ the divell can take (saie they) what shape he list. But though some may cavill upon the divels transforming of himselfe; yet, that either divell or witch can transforme or transubstantiat others, there is no tittle nor colour in the scriptures to helpe them. If there were authoritie for it, and that it were past all peradventure, lo, what an easie matter it is to resubstantiate an asse into a man. For _Bodin_ saith upon the word of _Apuleius_, that if the asse eate new roses, anise, or baie leaves out of spring water, it will presentlie returne him into a man. Which thing _Sprenger_ saith maie be doone, by washing the asse in faire water: yea he sheweth an instance, where, by drinking of water an asse was turned into a man. ♦Ezec. 3, 12. and 14.♦ ♦_Mal. malef._♦ ♦_J.
