CHAPTER XXXVI.

_How Dr. Faustus served the Twelve Students._

At Wittenburg, before Faustus's house, there was a quarrel between seven

students, and five that came to part the rest, one part stronger than

the other. Wherefore Dr. Faustus, seeing them to be over-matched, conjured

them all blind, insomuch that the one could not see the other, and he

dealt so with them, that they fought and smote at one another still;

whereat all the beholders fell a-laughing; and thus they continued

blind, beating one another until the people parted them and led each one

to his own house, where being entered into their houses, they received

their sight presently again.
