Note 1236 — Chapter IV · MIXTURE OF ANCIENT AND MODERN SUPERSTITION.
S. G. C. (Samuel George Chetwynd) Middlemore translation
Curious information is given by Landi, in the Commentario, fol. 36 a and 37 a, about two magicians, a Sicilian and a Jew; we read of magical mirrors, of a death’s-head speaking, and of birds stopped short in their flight.
