If any doubt of the story, they may be satisfied yet by the Boy himself, or by the Reverend Bishop yet alive, or by any of the neighbours in Bilson that were at age there but thirty seven years ago.
But before the Bishop had discovered the knavery, one of the Conjuring Priests writes the Narrative of the business (which is printed with the rest) and is Entitled [A Faithful Relation of the proceedings of the Catholic Gentlemen with the Boy of ⟨p. 188⟩Bilson, showing, &c.] And they begin with [Not to us O Lord, but to thy Name give the Glory!] And so they proceed to make their report of it, for deluding the people, as a Miracle. And the writing was by a Papist Gentleman examined, attested upon Oath to be received from one Mr. Wheeler, &c. But when they heard of the Discovery, they were ashamed of their faithful Relation. At last, the Bishop brought the Boy at the next summers Assizes, July 26. 1621. to ask pardon openly of God, and the woman accused by him, and of the Country cheated by him, and there was an end of that Popish Miracle. Abundance more such I could give you out of certain records; but I recited this for the sake of H. T. and the Papists of Wolverhampton.
