7. Exam. Nicholas Lambert Examined again Jan. 26. 1664. before Rob. Hunt Esq, concerning what happened after Styles confession, testifyeth, That Eliz. Style having been Examined before the Justice, made her Confession, and committed to the Officer, the Justice required this Examinant, William Thick and William Read of Bayford to watch her, which they did; and this Informant sitting near Style by the Fire, and reading in the Practice of Piety, about Three of the Clock in the Morning there came from her Head a glistering bright Fly, about an Inch in length, which pitched at first in the Chimney, and then vanished. In less than a quarter of an hour after, there appeared two Flies more of a less size, and another colour which seemed to strike at the Examinants hand, in which he held his Book, but missed it, the one going over, the other going under at the same time. He looking stedfastly then on Style, perceived her countenance to change, und to become very black and gastly, the Fire also at the same time changing its colour; whereupon the Examinant, Thick and Read conceiving that her Familiar was then about her, looked to her Poll, and seeing her Hair shake very strangely took it up, and then a Fly like a great Millar flew out from the place, and pitched on the Table-board, and then vanished away. Upon this the Examinant, and the other two persons looking again in Styles Poll, found it very red and like raw Beef. The Examinant askt her what it was that went out of her Poll, she said it was a Butterfly, and askt them why they had not caught it. Lambert said, they could not. I think so too, answered she. A little while after, the Informant and others looking into her Poll, found the place to be of its former colour. The Examinant demanded again what the Fly was, she confessed it was her Familiar, and that she felt it tickle in her Poll, and that was the usual time when her Familiar came to her.
