The Witch and the lady, being a strange and wonderful tragedy. In four parts. Sh[o]wing how a lady sold herself to the Devil, to be revenged on her false lover, and caused a witch to break his neck as he was riding on the road, and ca[u]sed his wife to bring forth a great toad. II. How she agreed with the Devil, that if ever any man had to do with her, to be torn in pieces, and to have her body when dead, and how she'd charm young men to fall in love with her, and then cause them to die for her. III. How she broke the contract by lying with her own brother, not knowing one another, till a great black raven on a both, discovered it to them; and how the Devil and the spirits of her lovers would carry her away only for the soul of her mother. [No 123] IV. How the Devil tore her to pieces as soon as she died; the ministers discourse with the Devil; the death of her father and brother; the witch burn'd; and too many other things too tedious to insert here.
