I. It was in the Year 1669. and 1670. That at _Mohra_ in _Sweedland_, the ==Devils== by the help of ==Witches==, committed a most horrible outrage. Among other Instances of Hellish Tyranny there exercised, one was, that Hundreds of their Children, were usually in the Night fetcht from their Lodgings, to a Diabolical Rendezvouz, at a place they called, _Blockula_, where the Monsters that so Spirited them, ==Tempted== them all manner of Ways to ==Associate== with them. Yea, such was the perillous Growth of this _Witchcraft_, that Persons of Quality began to send their Children into other Countries to avoid it. II. The Inhabitants had earnestly sought God by ==Prayer==; and ==Yet== their Affliction ==Continued==. Whereupon ==Judges== had a Special ==Commission== to find and root out the Hellish Crew; and the rather, because another County in the Kingdom, which had been so molested, was delivered upon the Execution of the _Witches_. III. The ==Examination==, was begun with a Day of ==Humiliation==; appointed by Authority.[203] Whereupon the Commissioners ==Consulting==, how they might resist such a Dangerous Flood, the ==Suffering Children==, were first Examined; and tho' they were [49] Questioned ==One== by ==One== apart, yet their ==Declarations All Agreed==. The ==Witches== Accus'd in these Declarations, were then Examined; and tho' at first they obstinately ==Denied==, yet at length many of them ingenuously ==Confessed== the Truth of what the children had said; owning with Tears, that the ==Devil==, whom they call'd _Loeyta_, had stopt their ==Mouths==; but he being now ==Gone== from them, they could ==No Longer Conceal== the Business. The things by them ==Acknowledged==, most wonderfully ==Agreed== with what other Witches, in other places had confessed. IV. They confessed, that they did use to ==Call upon== the ==Devil==, who thereupon would ==Carry== them away, over the Tops of Houses, to a Green Meadow, where they gave themselves unto him. Only one of them said, That sometimes the _Devil_ only took away her ==Strength==, leaving her ==Body== on the ground; but she went at other times in ==Body== too.
