delivered to her in the likeness of a white spotted cat... Then this Elizabeth desired first of the said Cat (calling it Satan) that she might
be rich and to have goods, and he promised her that she should asking her what she would have, and she said sheep (for this Cat spake
to her as she confessed in a strange hollow voice... When she had gotten these sheep, she desired to have one Andrew Byles to her
husband... and the Cat did promise that she should... And after when this Andrew had thus abused her, he would not marry her,
wherefore she willed Satan to waste his goods, which he forthwith did, and yet not being contented with this, she willed him to touch his body which he forthwith did whereof he died..."
