The history of the life and death of Pontius Pilate, the Roman president, who sentenced our blessed Lord and Saviour to be crucified. Likewise an account of the most memorable transactions, which happen'd while he was governour of Jerusalem: As also, a relation of his untimely end, by drowning himself in a lake near Lucerna in Switzerland, where he yearly appears in his judges habit; but whatever man or woman happens to see him, dies within a year; and such is the property of this lake wherein Pilate drown'd himself, that if any one cast a stone into it, it overflows the country with great damage for several miles, whereupon laws are made against throwing any thing into this lake upon pain of death, and divers that have transgressed them, have been executed for the same.
