Dr. Faustus' birth and education: with an account of his felling from the Scriptures.
D O C T O R J O H N FAUSTUS was born in Germany;
his father was a poor labouring man, not able to
bring up his son Jolm: but he had a brother in
thd same country, who was a very rich man, but
had never a child, and took & great fancy to his
cousin, and he resolved to make a scholar of him ;
and in order thereunto, put him to the latin school,
v^here he took his learning extraordinary well;
afterwards he put him to the University to study
divinity ; bat Faustus could in no ways fancy that
employment; wherefore he betook himself to the
studying of that which his inclination is most for,
viz. Necromancy and Conjuration, and in a lit-
�II
ile time, few or none could outstrip him in the
art; l i e also studied Divinity: of which he was
made Doctor; But within a short time fell into
such deep fancies and cogitations, that he resolved to throw the scriptures from him, and betake
himself wholly to the studying of neeromacy
and conjuration, charms and sobth-sayitig,.witchcraft, and the like.
C H A P II.
How Dr. Faustus conjured up the devil, makeing him appear at his own house.
; {fummD in mod
AARAUA* W H O I H O T D O O
Faustus, whose mind was to study conjuration,
the which he followed night and .day;.he took
the wings of an eagle, and endeavoured to fly over the world, to see and know all the secrets of
heaven and earth : so that in a short time, he attained power to command the devil to appear before him when he pleased.
One day as Dr.
Faustus was walking in a wood near to Wirtemberg, in Germany, he having a friend with him
who was desirous to know of the Doctors art,
he desired him to let him see if he could then and
there bring Mephostophiles before him; all which
�II
the Doctor immediately did, and the dsvil upon
the first call, made such a noise in the wood, as
if heaven and earth would have come together;
then the devil made such a roaring as if the wood
had been full of wild beasts. The Doctor made
a circle for the devil, the which circle the devil
ran round, making a noise as if ten thousand waggons had been running upon paved stones. After
this it thundered and lightened, as if the whole
world had been on fire. Faustus and his friend
amazed at this noise, and the devil's long tarrying, thought to leave his circle; whereupon he
made him such music, the like was never heard
in the world: This so ravished Faustus that he
began again to conjure Mephostophiles in the
name of the prince of the devils, to appear in his
own likeness; whereupon in an instant, hung
over his head a mighty dragon. Faustus calls
again after his former manner, after which there
was a cry in the wood as if hell had opened, and
all the tormented souls had been there; Faustus
in the mean while, asked the devil many questions, and commanded him to show many diabolical tricks.

�CHAP. H i
How Mephostophiles came to Dr* Faustus's
house and what happened between them.
Faustus commanded the spirit to meet him at
his house by ten of the clock the next day. At
the hour appointed he earne into his chamber,
asking Faustus what he would have Faustus
told him, it was his will and .pleasure to conjure
Mm to be obedient to him in all points of those
articles, viz.
First, That the spirit should serve him in all
things he asked, from that time till his death.
Secondly, Whatsoever he would have* he
should bring him.
Thirdly* Whatsoever he desired to know, he
should tell him.
T h e spirit answered him and said he had no
such power of himself, until he had acquainted
his prince that hiled over him: " For" said he,
" we have rulers over us that send us out* aiid
command us home when they please t and we
can act 110 further than our power is, which
we receive from Lucifer, who, you know, for
his pride was thrust out of heaven. But saith
�7
the spirit, I am not to tell you any more except you make yourself over to us.'*
Whereupon Faustus said, " I will have my
request ? but yet I will not be damned with you."
Then said the spirit, " You must not, nor shall
not have your desire, and yet thou art mine and
all the world connot save thee out of my hands."
Then said Faustus. " Get thee hence, and I.
conjure thee, that thou come to me at night."
T h e spirit then vanished. Faustus then began
to consider, how he m?glit obtain Iris desire, and
npfc give his soul to the devil.
And while Faustus wer£ in these his devilish
cogitations^ night drew on, and this hellish spirit
appeared to Faustus, acquainting him, that now
he had got orders from his prince to be obedient
to him, and to do for him whatsoever he desired,
provided he would promise to be his, and withal
to acquaint him first, what he would have of him?
Faustus replied, that his desire was to become a
spirit, and i h a t Mephostophiles should be always
at his command; that whatsoever he called for
him, he shall appear invisible to all meii, and
that he should appear in what shape he pleased
to which the spirit, answered, that all his desires
should 1be granted if he would sign those articles,
he should wish or ask for: whereupon D r . Faustus withdrew and stabbed his wrist receiving the
�8
blood in a small saucer, which cooled so fast, as
if it forwarned him of the hellish act he was going to commit; nevertheless he put it over embers to warm it, and wrote as follows.
" I, John Faustus, approved doctor of divinity, with my own hand do acknowledge aud testify myself to become a servant to Lucifer,
Prince of Septentrional and Oriental, and to him
I freely and voluntarily give both soul; in consideration for the space of twenty four years, if I
be served in all things which I shall require, or
which is reasonable; by him to be allowed ; at the
expiration of which time from the date ensuing,
I give to him all power to do with me at his
pleasure; to rule to retch and carry me where
he pleases body and soul; hereupon I defy God
and Christ, and the host of angels and goocl
spirits all living creatures that bear his shape,
or on whom his image is imprinted y and to the
better strengthening the validity of this covenant
and firm agreement between us, I have writ it
with my blood, and subscribe my name to it,
calling all the powers and infernal potentates to
witness it is my true intent and meaning."
JOIIN FAUSTUS.

C H A P IV.
What happened to Faustus after the signing
of the articles.
When Faustus had made an end of his writing
he called Mephostophiles to him, and delivered
him the bond; whereupon the spirit told him if
he did not repent of what he had done, he should
enjoy all the pleasure his thoughts could form,
and that he would immediately divert him. He
caused a kennel of hounds to run down a hart in
the hall? and vanished: then a bull danced before
Faustus, also there was a lion and a bear, which
fell to fighting before Faustus, and the lion destroyed the bear : after that came a dragon and
destroyed the lion. And this, with abundance*
of more pastime, did the spirit present to the
doctor's view, concluding with all manner of
music, with some hundreds of spirits, which came
and danced before Faustus. After the music
was over, and Faustus began to look about him,
he saw ten sacks full of silver, which he went to
dispose of, but could not, for none could, handle
it but himself, it was so hot. This pastime so
pleased Faustus, that he gave Mephostophiles
�10
the will that lie had made, and kept a copy of it
in his own hands. Tim spirit and Faustns being agreed, they dwelt together, and the devil
was in their house-keeping, for there was never
any thing given away to poor, which before
Faustus made this contract was frequently done,
but the case is now altered.
C H A P . V.
How Faustns served the Duke of Bavaria.
Faustns having sold his soul to the devil, it
was reported among his neighbours* so that none
would keep him company, but his spirit playing
merry tricks for to please him. Not far from
Patistus's house lived the Duke of Bavaria, the
Duke of Saxony, and the Bishop of Salisburgh,
whose houses and cellars Mepliostophiles used to
visit* and to briilg the best of every thing they
had : one day the Duke of Bavaria invited most
of the gentry of the country to dinner, for whose
entertainment, there was abundance of provision
got ready. The gentry being come, and ready
to sit down to dinner, in an instant Mephostophiles came and took all away with him, leaving
�II
them full of admiration. IF any tmis Faustus
had a mind for wild fowl, the spirit would call
whole flocks in at a window ; also the spirit did
teach Faustus to do the like so that no lock nor
key could keep them out. The devil also taught
Faustus to fly in the air and to act many things
that are incredible, and too large for this small
boot to contain.

How t h v Faustus dreamed of hell in his sleep
and wluit he saw there.

I
i !
After Faustus had ix long conference tfith his
spirit concerning the fall of Lucifer, and the
state and condition of all the fallen angels, he,
in a vision or dream, saw hell and all the devils
and souls that were tormented there; he saw hell
divided into several cells, or deep holes; and for
every cell, or deep ward, there was a devil appointed to punish those that were under his custody. HaVifig seen this sight, he much marvelled at i t ; and at that time Mephostophiles
being with him, he asked him what sort of people they were that lay in the first dark pit ; they
�Mephostophiles told him they were those who
pretended themselves to be physicians, and who
had poisoned many thousands to try practise;
and now saith the spirit they have just the same
administered to them, which they gave to others
though not with the same effect, for they will
never die here saith he. Over their heads was
a shelf laden with gallipots full of poison. Having past them he came to a long entry exceeding
dark where there was a mighty crowd, he asked
him what those were ? and the spirit told him
they weie pick-pockets; who loved to be in a
crowd, when they were in the other world, and
to content them they put them in a crowd there,
amongst them were some padders on the high
way, and those of that function. Walking farther he saw many thousands of vintners, and
some millions of taylors, in so much that they
could not feel where to get stowage for them; a
great number of pastry cooks with peels on their
heads. Walking farther, the spirit opening* a
great cellar door, from which arose a terrible
noise, he asked what they were ; the spirit told
him they were witches, and those who had been
pretended Saints in the other world; but how
they did squabble, fight, and tear one another!
Not far from them lay the whore mongers and
adulterer*, who made such a hideous noise, that
�L3
he was very much startled. Walking down a
few steps he espied an incredible number almost
hid with smoke; he asked what they were ? the
spirit told him they were millers and bakers ; but
good lack, what a noise was there among them !
The millers crying to the bakers, and the bakers
crying to the millers for help, but all was in vain,
for there was none to help them. Passing on
still farther, he saw thousands of shopkeepers,
some of whom he knew, who were tormented for
defrauding and cheating their customers. Having taken this prospect of Hell, the spirit Mephostophiles took him in his arms, and carried
him home to his own house, when he awaking,
he was amazed at what he saw in his dream. So
being come to himself, he asked the spirit in what
place Hell was, and who made it ? Mephostophiles answered, " Knowest thou, that before the
fall of Lucifer, there was no hell, but upon his
fall, was hell ordained. As for the substance of
hell, we devils do not know; it is the wrath of
God that makes hell so furious, and what we
procured by our fall; but where hell is, or how
it is governed, and whatsoever thou desirest to
know, when thou comest there thou shalt be satisfied as far as we know ourselves.

Containing some tricks of Dr. Paustus.
Dr. Faustus having attained the desire of his
spirit, had now full power to act or do any thing
whatever he pleased ; upon a time the Emperor
had a desire to see him, and likewise some of the
Doctor's tricks: whereupon he wras requested by
the Emperor, to do somewhat to make him merr y ; but the Doctor in the meanwhile looking
round him he at last espied a great lord looking
put at a window, and the Doctor calling his spir-»
it to help him, be in an instant fastened a large
pair of horns upon the Lord's head, that he could
not get his head in till Faustus took off the horns
again, which were soon taken off invisibly ; The
Lord whom Faustus served so, was extremely
vexed, and resolved
be revenged op the Doc^
tpr,: and to that end lay a mile out of town for
Faustus's passing by, he being that day to dei art
for the country; Faustus coming by a wood side,
beheld that Lord mounted upon a mjghty warlike horse, who run full drift against Faustus,
who, by the assistance of his spirit, took him and
all, and carried before the Emperor's palace, and
�15
grafted a pair of horns on his head as big as an
Ox's; which he could never? be rid of, but wore
them to his dying day.

How Faustus eat a load of Hay,
Faustus upon a time having many doctors and
masters of arts with him, went to walk in thg
fields, where they met with a load of h a y ; " How
now good Fellow," saith Faustus, « what shall 1
give thee to fill my belly with hay S f The Clown
T
thought he had been a madman to talk of eating
hay, told him he should fill his belly for one
penny; to which the doctor agreed,afld then
fell to eating, and quickly devouring half of the
load : at which the doctor's companions laughed,
to see how simply the poor country fellow looked, and to hear how heartily he prayed the doctor to forbear; so Faustus pitying the poor
man, went away, and before the man got near
his house, all the hay was in the cart, that the
doctor had eaten, which made the country fellow very much admire

How he struck a parcel of Students who were
fighting together, blind; and how he served
a parcel of Clowns who were singing and ran5
ting at an i
;
^
Thirteen Students meeting with seven more,
near Dr. Faustus's house, fell to extremely first
in words and at last to blows ; the thirteen being too hard for the seven, and Dr* Faustus
looking out at his window and seeing the fray
and how much they were over matched, conjured them all blind, so that the one could not see
the other, and in this manner they fought one
another* which made all that saw them laugh:
at length the people parted them, and led them
to their chambers, they instantly received their
sight—The doctor coming into an inn;with some
friends, was disturbed by the hallowing and bawling of a parcel of drunken Clowns, whereupon
when their mouths were wide open, he so ?corijured them* that by no means they could shut
them again; and after they had stared one upon
another, without being able to speak, thinking
they were bewitched, they dropped away in a
�IT
confused fear, one by one, and never could be
got to the house afterwards.

How Faustus helped a young man to a fair lady.
There was a gallant young gentleman who
was in love with a fair lady, living at Wirtemberg, near the dooters house, this gentleman had
long sought this lady in marriage, but could not
attain his desire, and having placed his affections
so much upon her, he was ready to pine away,
and had certainly died with grief, had he not
made his address to the doctor, to whom he opened the whole matter. Now no sooner had the
gentlertian told his cause5 to the doctor, but he told
him that he need not be afraid, for his desire
should be fulfilled, and that he should have her,
whom he so much d-esired, arid that this gentlewoman should have none but him, which was
accordingly done, for the doctor so changed her
mind, that she could think of nothing else but
him whom before she hated; and Faustus's desire was this; lie gave him an enchanted ring
which be ordered him to put into the lady's hand,
�18
I
or to slip, it on her fingei\ which he did i ajad no
sooner had she got the ring than her heart buried
>vith love to him; she instead of frowns, could do
aothing but smile upon him, and not be at rest
Jill she asked him if he thought he could love
her, and make her his wife? he gladly answered
with all his heart. So they were married the next
day, and all by the help of Dr, Faustus,

Now Faustus made seven women danee naked
in the Market place,
Faustus walking in the market-plaqe, saw seven women sitting all in a i;ow, selling Qggs* butter, &e. Of e very one he bought something and
departed: no sooner was lie gone, but all th$ eggs
and butter, were gone out of of their baskets and
they knew not how: at last they were told, that
J k . Faustus had conjured their goods away;
thfey thereupon ran speedily to the Doctor's
house, and so demanded satisfaction for the ware;
he resolving to make himself and the town's people merry by his conjuring art, made them return to their baskets naked as ever they were
�II
born: and having danced a while m the market
place every one's goods w e eon-jured into tfaeir
baskets again, and they set at liberty.

How Faustus served a Country Fe (low who was
driving Swine.
4
Dr. Faustus, as he was going to Wirtemberg .
overtook a Country Fellow driving an hundred
Swine, who were very headstrong some running
one way and some another; so that the driver
could not tell how tp get. them drpye along: the
doctor taking notice of it, so by his conjuring
art, he ma <} f ^very one of .them ctynce upon their
two hind legs, with a fiddle in one of their fore
feet,, and with the other fore foot they played upon the fiddle, and so they danced and fiddled all
the way until they came into Wirtenaberg market. The d r w r of them dancing all the way
before them, which made the people wonder : after the Doctor had satisfied himself vyith the spirit he conjured all of the fiddles away, and the
driver then offered them for sale,
quickly sold
them all, and took the money; but before he was
�gone out of the house Faustus had conjured all
the hogs out of the market-place, and sent them
all home to the driver's house. The man who
bought them, seeing all the swine gone, stopped
the man who sold them and would have his money, which he was forced to pay, and so returned
home sorrowful, and not knowing what to do ;
but to his great surprise, found all the swine in
their sties.

CHAP. XIII.
How Faustus begun to bethink himself of the
near approach of his end.
Faustus having spun out his twenty-four years,
within a month or two, began to consider what
he should do to cheat the devil, but could not
find any way to prevent his miserable end, which
was now near, wThereupon he thus cries out to
himself, Oh! miserable wretch that l a m , I have
given myself to the devil, for a few years pleasure, and now I must pay full dear; I have had
my desires; my filthy lusts I have satisfied, and
I must be tormented for ever and ever.
A neighbour of his a very good old man hear-
�II
ing of his way of living, in compassion to Ins
soul came to Him, and with tears in his eyes, feesought him to have more regard to his most precious soulj laying before him the promise of
God's grace and mercy, freely offered to repenting sinners, and spake so feelingly that Faustus
shed tears, and promised to him, that he would
try to repent. This good man was no sooner
gone away, than Mephostophiles found him pensive and on his bed, now Mephostophiles mustering what had happened, began to reproach
him with breach of covenant to his Lord Lucifer, and thereupon? almost twisted his neck behind him, which made him cry out very lamentable ; in the mean time threatening to tear him
to pieces, unless he renewed his obligation, which
for fear, with much sorrow he did, in a manner
the same as the former, which he confirmed by
the latter.
CHAP. XIV
How Dr. Faustus was warned of the Spirit to
prepare for his end.
Faustuss full time being eome, the spirit ap-
�peared to him, and shewed him his writing, and
told him that the next night, the devil would
fetch him away, which made the Doctor's heart
to ache: but to divert himself, he sent for some
Doctors and master bachelors of arts, and other
students to take dinner with him, for whom he
»
provided groat store of varieties, with music and
the like: but all would not keep up his spirits, for the hour drew n e a r : whereupon his -countenance changing the doctors and masters of
arts enquired of him the reasons of his Melamchotiness ? to which Fa^stusanswered, " My
friends, you have known i&e these many years and
how I hare practised all manner of wickedness.
I have been a great conjurer, which devilish art
I obtained of the the devil ; and also to obtain
power to do whatever I pleased I sold myself to
the 4evH for twenty four years time, which £ull
time being out this night, makes me fbll ©ff horror ; I have called you my friends, to see this my
dreadful end : and I -pray-let my miserable death
be a warning to you all, how you study the devilish art of conjtariag~; for if lonce you begin it,
a thousand to one but it will lead you to the devtil whither £ am this aught to go, whether I will
or not." Tfoey hearing of this sad story blamed
him for concealing it so long, telling him if he
fbad made them acquainted foefoio tint* they
�thought it might have been prevented. He told
them he had a desire several times to have disclosed this intrigue; but the devil told feim, tH8t
if he did, he would presently fetch Mm away;
he also told them, he liad a desire to join with
the godly, and to leave o f that wicked course;
but immediately the devil used to come and torment him, &c. ^ But now, saith Faustus, it is
but in vain for me to talk of what I did intend,
for 1 have sold myself to the devil, body and soul
is his." No sooner had he spoken these words,
but suddenly it fell a thundering and lightening,
the like was never heard; whereupon Faustus
went into the great hall, the doctors and, masters staying in the next room, intending to hear
his end. About twelve o'clock the house shook
so terribly that they <^i|gjht i t would have been
down upon them, and suddenly the house
windows were broken to pieces, s«L!that they trembled and wished themselves elsewhere, whereupon a great clap of thunder, with a whirlwind the
doors flew open, and a mighty rushing of wind
entered with the hissing of serpents, shrieks and
cries, upon w hich he lamentably cried out, Murder, and there wras such roaring in the hall as if
all the devils in hell had been there. When daylight appeared, they took the boldness to enter
into the room, and found his brains beaten out
�24
against the wall, and the floor sprinkled with
blood ; but missing his body they went in search
of: it and found it on the dung-hill mangled and
mashed to pieces. So ended this miserable
wretch's life, forsaking God, and all goodness,
and given up to his implacable enemy which
we hope may stand not only as a fearful, but
lasting monument and warning to others.
