The Book of Dreams and Ghosts
·

"When
the
young
man
was
returning
from
his
labour,
he
was
taken
up
by
the
skirt
of
his
doublet
by
this
female
daemon,
and
carried
a
height
into
the
air.
He
was
soon
missed
by
his
Master
and
some
other
servants
that
had
been
at
labour
with
him,
and
after
diligent
enquiry
no
news
could
be
heard
of
him,
until
at
length
(near
half
an
hour
after)
he
was
heard
singing
and
whistling
in
a
bog
or
quagmire,
where
they
found
him
in
a
kind
of
trance
or
extatick
fit,
to
which
he
hath
sometimes
been
accustomed
(but
whether
before
the
affliction
he
met
with
from
this
spirit
I
am
not
certain).
He
was
affected
much
after
such
sort,
as
at
the
time
of
those
fits,
so
that
the
people
did
not
give
that
attention
and
regard
to
what
he
said
as
at
other
times;
but
when
he
returned
again
to
himself
(which
was
about
an
hour
after)
he
solemnly
protested
to
them
that
the
daemon
had
carried
him
so
high
that
his
master's
house
seemed
to
him
to
be
but
as
a
hay-cock,
and
that
during
all
that
time
he
was
in
perfect
sense,
and
prayed
to
Almighty
God
not
to
suffer
the
devil
to
destroy
him;
and
that
he
was
suddenly
set
down
in
that
quagmire.
The
workmen
found
one
shoe
on
one
side
of
his
master's
house,
and
the
other
on
the
other
side,
and
in
the
morning
espied
his
perriwig
hanging
on
the
top
of
a
tree;
by
which
it
appears
he
had
been
carried
a
considerable
height,
and
that
what
he
told
them
was
not
a
fiction.
