Neighbourhood, and you will think a little, what the Constitution among
the _Devils_ is.

Thirdly, 'tis to be supposed, that some _Devils_ are more peculiarly
_Commission'd_, and perhaps _Qualify'd_, for some Countries, while
others are for others. This is intimated when in _Mar. 5.10._ The Devils
_besought_ our Lord much, _that he would not send them away out of the
Countrey_. Why was that? But in all probability, because _these Devils_
were more able to _do the works of the Devil_, in such a Countrey, than
in another. It is not likely that every Devil does know every
_Language_; or that every Devil can do every _Mischief_. 'Tis possible,
that the _Experience_, or, if I may call it so, the _Education_ of all
Devils is not alike, and that there may be some difference in their
_Abilities_. If one might make an Inference from what the Devils _do_,
to what they _are_, One cannot forbear dreaming, that there are
_degrees_ of Devils. Who can allow, that such Trifling _Daemons_, as that
of _Mascon_, or those that once infested our _New berry_, are of so much
Grandeur, as those _Daemons_, whose Games are mighty Kingdoms? Yea, 'tis
certain, that all Devils do not make a like Figure in the _Invisible
World_. Nor does it look agreeably, That the _Daemons_, which were the
Familiars of such a Man as the old _Apollonius_, differ not from those
baser Goblins that chuse to Nest in the filthy and loathsom Rags of a
beastly Sorceress. Accordingly, why may not some Devils be more
accomplished for what is to be done in such and such places, when others
must be _detach'd_ for other Territories? Each Devil, as he sees his
advantage, cries out, _Let me be in this Countrey, rather than another._

But _Enough_, if not _too much_, of these things.

_Proposition II._ There is a Devilish _Wrath_ against _Mankind_, with
which the _Devil_ is for _God's sake_ Inspired. The Devil is himself
broiling under the intollerable and interminable _Wrath_ of God; and a
fiery _Wrath_ at God, is, that which the Devil is for that cause
Enflamed. Methinks I see the posture of the Devils in _Isa. 8.21._ _They
fret themselves, and Curse their God, and look upward._ The first and
chief _Wrath_ of the Devil, is at the Almighty God himself; he knows,
_The God that made him, will not have mercy on him, and the God that
formed him, will shew him no favour;_ and so he can have no _Kindness_
for that God, who has no _Mercy_, nor _Favour_ for him. Hence 'tis, that
