Necromantist

I told him, that at a Noble-mans Table, There was, of great account, who ſaid, that there was an Engliſh man, come to the Emperours, A bankrupt Alchimiſt, a Conjurer, and Necromantiſt: who had ſold his own goods, and given the Lord Laſkie the money: and that he had beguiled him: and that now he would fain get ſome of the Emperour his money from him, &c.

So much for the Ninth term of deſcription of a Witch in the text, a Necromantiſt, one that aſketh counſel of the dead.

The necromantist professed to hear voices from graves, and to bring back tidings from the bosom of hell.

She shrank close against the wall, wondering who could be in her mother’s shrine, fearing tomb robbers, necromantists.
