X. They were discovered no less than _three-score and ten_ Witches in

One Village, ==three and twenty== of which ==freely confessing== their Crimes, were condemned to dy. The rest, (==One== pretending she was with Child) were sent to _Fahluna_, where most of them were afterwards executed. Fifteen Children, which confessed themselves engaged in this Witchery, dyed as the rest. Six and Thirty of them between _nine_ and _sixteen_ years of Age, who had been less guilty, were forced to run the Gantlet, and be lashed on their hands once a Week, for a year together; twenty more who had less inclination to these Infernal enterprises, were lashed with Rods upon their Hands for three Sundays together, at the Church door; the number of the seduced Children, was about three hundred. This course, together with ==Prayers== in all the Churches thro' the Kingdom, issued in the deliverance of the Country.[204]
