The Book of Dreams and Ghosts
·
Andrew Lang

"Many
other
strange
and
fantastical
freaks
have
been
done
by
the
said
daemon
or
spirit
in
the
view
of
divers
persons;
a
barrel
of
salt
of
considerable
quantity
hath
been
observed
to
march
from
room
to
room
without
any
human
assistance.
"An
hand-iron
hath
seemed
to
lay
itself
cross
over-thwart
a
pan
of
milk
that
hath
been
scalding
over
the
fire,
and
two
flitches
of
bacon
have
of
their
own
accord
descended
from
the
chimney
where
they
were
hung,
and
placed
themselves
upon
the
hand-iron.
"When
the
spectre
appears
in
resemblance
of
her
own
person,
she
seems
to
be
habited
in
the
same
cloaths
and
dress
which
the
gentlewoman
of
the
house
(her
daughter-in-law)
hath
on
at
the
same
time.
Divers
times
the
feet
and
legs
of
the
young
man
aforesaid
have
been
so
entangled
about
his
neck
that
he
hath
been
loosed
with
great
difficulty;
sometimes
they
have
been
so
twisted
about
the
frames
of
chairs
and
stools
that
they
have
hardly
been
set
at
liberty.
But
one
of
the
most
considerable
instances
of
the
malice
of
the
spirit
against
the
young
man
happened
on
Easter
Eve,
when
Mrs.
C.
the
relator,
was
passing
by
the
door
of
the
house,
and
it
was
thus:--
