THE second Dialogue is entitled (Black Devils) because that mention is made herein, of the most furious possessed with Devils, which dwelt among graves and deserts, and of such men as are like unto them, and namely of such as be tyrants, persecutors, and open enemies of the people of God. For, this sort of Devils and possessed, are less transfigured into Angels of light, then such cloaked enemies as make show of friendship and familiarity.
