BARGARREN ARMS. PAISLEY: ALEX. GARDNER. 1877. f Bvb. q-toZ3 ^Tstorical medical INTRODUCTION. Witchcraft is a subject that has bulked largely in the history of mankind. A belief in it has been by no means confined to dark ages and barbarous nations. In Jewish history it held a prominent place. The first king of Israel banished wizards and witches from his borders, but could not set himself free from faith in their spells. Many of his successors had deal- ings Christianity, with familiar spirits ; and down to the days of Gentiles as well as Jews all over the world attributed to cer- tain men and women supernatural powers that were generally exercised for evil. Christianity, though it gave a blow to superstition, by no means eradicated it. The influence of heathen beliefs and practices did not cease to be operative when the majority of a nation formally surrendered them. The evil one has always been regarded as the great king and master of the wizard band ; and faith in Witchcraft is yet to be found among certain followers of all religions that recognise the existence of the spirit of darkness. -
