Strange news from Arpington near Bexly in Kent : being a true narrative of a young maid who was possest with several devils or evil spirits, one of which, by the prayers of a pious and religious doctor, who came to visit her, was fetcht [sic] out of her body, and appear'd in the room in the likeness of a large snake, and twisted it self about the doctors neck, whilst he was at his devotion. With an account also of other devils, which yet remain in her, and reveal several strange things, the like never heard before; of which the contents within will give you a particular account. / This narrative is attested by several persons of credit, but amongst many others, by one Mrs. Hopper.
