ABSTRACT

The antient Magick having by a long Succession of Art and Time been handed down to the Grecians, and from them to the Romans, we cannot but acknowledge that they went a great way to the improving it, for they mingled the Black Art so entirely among their religious Worship that it is not to this day possible to distinguish between the Rites and Ceremonies of their Gods, and the Inchantments and Charms, Conjurations and Divinations immediately directed by the Devil.
