Description
Excerpt: Witchcraft and demonology, as we have had already occasion to remark, were at this period believed in by almost all ranks, but more especially among the stricter classes of presbyterians, whose government, when their party were at the head of the state, had been much sullied by their eagerness to enquire into, and persecute these imaginary crimes. Now, in this point of view, also, Saint Leonard?s Crags and the adjacent Chase were a dreaded and ill?reputed district. Not only had witches held their meetings there, but even of very late years the enthusiast, or imposter, mentioned in the Pandaemonium of Richard Bovet, Gentleman, had, among the recesses of these romantic cliffs, found his way into the hidden retreats where the fairies revel in the bowels of the earth.
