take them as overtook Dædalus, after whom an arm of the sea was named because he lost his life in falling into it.
And as for the Council of Aquileia, those who admit the transvection of witches have sufficiently refuted its opinion. With regard to Navarro, it seems that he would entirely deny the existence of the Sabbat; but no one can rightly uphold such a denial, since there is nothing more certain than that witches assemble together; for otherwise they could not so perfectly agree in their reports of their Sabbats, even allowing for the fact that there are several Sabbats, held in different places.
