Knight reaches in relation to these decadent beliefs are worthy of remark. He states:* "We have thus seen in how many various forms the old phallic, or priapic worship presented itself in the middle ages, and how pertinaciously it held its ground ♦Worship of Priapus.
92 Sex Worship and Symbolism through all the changes and development of society, until at length we find all the circum- stances of the ancient priapic orgies, as well as the mediaeval additions combined in that great and extensive... superstitition, — witchcraft. At all times the initiated were believed to have obtained thereby powers which were not possessed by the uninitiated, and they only were supposed to know about the form of invocation of the deities who were the objects of this worship, which deities the Christian teachers invariably transformed into devils. The vows which people of antiquity addressed to Priapus, those of the middle ages addressed to Satan.
