It is ridiculous to suppose as some
It is ridiculous to suppose, as some do, that a cat’s breath has any effect upon a baby either for good or for evil. Neither will a cat bring blood from a child’s temple by licking it with its rough tongue.
An ugly old woman isn’t necessarily a witch because she keeps a black cat. Neither is a black cat a devil.
They say that witches sail over the sea in riddles accompanied by their black cats, and that they have rather a jolly time of it upon the whole, having plenty to eat, and plenty to drink flagons of wine, in fact. Don’t you believe it, reader.
