VI. The ==First Thing==, they said, they were to do at _Blockula_,

was to give themselves unto the Devil, and ==Vow== that they would serve him. Hereupon, they ==cut their Fingers==, and with ==Blood== writ their ==Names== in his ==Book==. And he also caused them to be ==Baptised== by such ==Priests==, as he had, in this Horrid company. In ==some== of them, the ==Mark== of the ==cut Finger== was to be found; they said, that the Devil gave ==Meat== and ==Drink==, as to _Them_, so to the Children they brought with them: that afterwards their Custom was to _Dance_ before him; and _swear_ and _curse_ most horribly; they said, that the Devil show'd them a great Frightful, Cruel _Dragon_, telling them, ==If they confessed any Thing==, he would let loose that Great Devil upon them; they added, that the Devil had a ==Church==, and that when the ==Judges== were coming, he told them ==he would== [50] ==kill them all==; and that some of them had ==Attempted to Murder the Judges== but ==could not==.
