First printed in 1579 and entitled "A rehearsall both straung and true, of hainous and horrible actes committed by Elizabeth Stile", this unique text represents one of the first mass-produced texts on witch craft and the occult in the English language. Printed in a beautiful stylised text, the work discusses the supposed horrific act of Elizabeth Stile, an accused and condemned witch of the 16th century, an unfortunate soul who was executed on this basis. As a piece of history, or an item on the occult, this is an incredible and powerful piece of history, one that is an excellent accompaniment to our other 16-18th century text on the subject of the occult and witchcraft.
