persons who had the power of trans

rocity of beasts of prey. Persons
who believed in were-wolves were of
the opinion that the hair grew in
ward, and that the human demon
possessed of such qualities had but
to turn himself inside out to effect
the wonderful metamorphosis. The
superstition is traceable to the clas-
steal fable OF Lykaon. Like the poor
wretches who were burned and other
wise put to death for witchcraft,
those suspicioned of being were
wolves were cruciied or broken on
the wheel after being fayed alive by
the superstitious executors, who
were in search of the supposed hairy
insides.
