"Touching the manner of Examination, there be two kinds of proceeding; either by a single Question, or by some Torture" (Perkins W. A Discourse of the Damned Art of Witchcraft. Cambridge, 1618. P. 643). Возможно, на столь жесткую позицию автора оказали влияние континентальные демонологические концепции — и прежде всего идеи Жана Бодена, который лично посетил Англию в 1581 г. Французский демонолог состоял в свите Франсуа Анжуйского и участвовал в переговорах о заключении брака между принцем и Елизаветой I. Известно, что Боден также встречался со знаменитым математиком и астрологом Джоном Ди и посетил Кембридж, где был приятно удивлен, узнав, какой популярностью пользуются в университете его «Шесть книг о государстве»: Couzinet M.-D. Op. cit. P. 242; Blair A. The Theater of Nature. Jean Bodin and Renaissance Science. Princeton, 1997. P. 11–12; Burgess G. Bodin in the English Revolution // The Reception of Bodin. P. 387407.

"All these proofes are so farre from being sufficient, that some of them, if not all, are after a sort practises of Witchcraft, having in them no power or vertue to detect a Sorcerer, either by Gods ordinance in the creation, or by any speciali appointment since" (Perkins W. Op. cit. P. 643).

912

"And yet to justifie the casting of a Witch into the water, it is alledged, that having made a covenant with the devil, she hath renounced her Baptisms, and hereupon their growes an Antipathie, betweene her and water" (Ibid.).

Сочинение У Перкинса вышло посмертно. Тем не менее, совершенно очевидно, что он читал «Демонологию» Якова Стюарта в ее первом, эдинбургском издании 1597 г.

"This allegation serves to no purpose: for all water is not the water of Baptisme, but that only which is used in the very act of Baptisme, and not before nor after. The element out of the use of the Sacrament, is no Sacrament, but returnes againe to his common use" (Ibid. P. 643–644).
