The Fourth is the Emiftion of Spirits , and Immateriate Powers and 
Vcrtues, in thofe Things, which worke by the Vainer fill Configuration, 
and Sympathy of the world ; Not by Formes, or CelefliaU Influxes, (as is 
^ vainly taught and receiued,) but by the Primitive Nature of Matter, and 
r the Seeds of Things. Of this kinde is, (as we yet fuppofe,) the Working of 
the Load-Stone, which is by Confent with the Globe of the Earth : Of this 
Kinde is the Motion o { Gravity, which is bv Confent of Deaf Bodies, with 
the Globe of the Earth : Of this kinde is fbme Difpofition of Bodies to Ro¬ 
tation , and particularly from Eafl to weft : Of which kinde wee conceiue 
the Maine Float and Re-float of the Sea is, which is by Confent of the Vm- 
uerfe , as Part of the Diurnall Motion. Thefe Immateriate Vert ties haue this 
Property differing from Others - That the Disicrfity of the GMediumhin- 
dreth them not* But they pafle thorow all Mediums • yet at Determinate 
diftances. And of thefe vie fhall fpeakc, as they are incident to ftue- 
rall Titles. 
The Fifth is the Emtfiions of Spirits - And this is the Principall in our 
Intention to handle now in this Place: Namely, the Operation of the Spi¬ 
rits o£ the Mindeof Man, vpon other Spirits: And this is of a Double Na¬ 
ture : The Operations of the Ajfetfions, if they be vehement* And the 
Operationoi the Imagination y if it bee Strong. But thefe two are fo Cow 
plcd,as we fhaU handle them together: For when an Enuious , or Amo¬ 
rous Afpeft, doth infedt the Spirits of Another, there is Ioyned both 
Ajfettion, and Imagination. 
The Sixth is, the Influxes of the Heauenly Bodies , befides thole two 
Manifeft Ones, of Neat, and Light. But thefe we will handle, where we 
handle the CelefliallBodies, and Motions. 
The Seuenth is the Operations of Sympathy 5 Which the writers of 
Nat (trail Magicke haue brought into an Art or Precept: And it is this* 
That if you delire to Super-induce, any Vertue or Difpofition, vpon a Per- 
fon , you fhould take the Lining Creature , in which that Vertue is mbft E- 
minent, and in Perfection : Of that Creature you mu ft take the Parts, 
wherein that Vertue chiefly is Co’Jdtate : Againe, you muft take thofe 
Parts , in the and Att, when that Vertue is moftin Exercife., And 
then you muft apply it to that Part of Mxn i wherein that Vertue chiefly 
Confifteth. As if you would Super-induce Courage and Fortitude , take a 
Lion,ox a Cocke’, And take iho. Heart, Tooth, or Paw of the Lion-, Orthc 
Heart, or Spur re of the Cocke: Take thofe Parts immediately after the 
Lion, or the Cocke haue beene in Fight ; And let them be worne, vpon a 
Mans Heart , or wrefl. Of thefe and fuch like Sympathies, we fhall fpeake 
vnderthis prelerit 7 Vf 
The Eighth and laft is, ah Emiflion of Immaterial Verities ; Such as 
are a little doubtfull to Propound • It is fo prodigious: But that it 
we 
is fo conftantly auouched by many: And wee haue fet it downe, as a 
Law toour Seines, to examine things to the Bottome • And not tore- 
ceiue vpon Credit, or reiedf vpon Improbabilities, vntill there hath paf- 
feda due Examination. This is, the Sympathy of Indiuiduals: For as
