Lescoriere, Marie (fl. sixteenth century)
A witch of the sixteenth century arrested at the age of 90. On being examined she declared that she was no longer a witch, that she prayed daily, and that she had not visited the sabbat for 40 years. Questioned on the subject of the sabbat, she confessed that she had seen the devil and that he had visited her in the shape of a dog or a cat. On one occasion, she said, she had killed a neighbor by praying to the devil.
