milk. She sent them in front of the house of the woman whom she suspected of having caused the loss of their milk, having first bidden them to go in the name of, etc.; and when they were in front of the house they remained there for some time lowing continually, and then came back with their milk restored.
Now there is one sign, among others, by which it may be known whether an animal has been bewitched, namely, when it dies in a state of frenzy. This is what happened to a hen belonging to Rollande du Vernois: for this woman had two hens, and one day she refused Groz-Jacques Bocquet an egg; whereupon Groz-Jacques, meaning to kill her hens, threw them some crumbs of bread which he had dusted with a powder; and when they had eaten them, the two hens at once died. But one of them, before dying, threw itself to the ground and leaped and climbed against the walls in such a way that it was thought to be mad. The same thing happened to several horses which Antoine Tornier and Clauda Coirieres had bewitched. Vegece also says that a bewitched animal is sad and heavy, and that it grows thin and falls ill if it be not helped by natural remedies.
