Summer 1657
|
A tailor's daughter in pain - bewitched
|
A healer had told that the witch will be revealed
|
Before sundown a woman known as evil appeard
|
|
"That bitch must have done it.
|
She must be the offspring of satan himself"
|
|
Despite the accusitions she offered to help
|
And poured a potion all over her
|
All of a sudden she started to shake
|
The birth of four frog-like creatures was seen
|
|
"She threatened me that inside
|
I would melt 'cos I didn't give her butter"
|
the poor girl yelled
|
So the witch was bound in heavy chains.
|
And taken to the court as a servant of hell
|
|
"I met a mysterious black man.
|
He kissed me and taught how to do harm"
|
|
As interrogation and torture went on.
|
Heard the good people of the court horrible things
|
Thirteen years as servant of satan.
|
A whore and a right hand to the dark prince
|
|
Sabbaths, or devotions to the devil
|
Were held on a small nearby hill
|
At the peak of the torment
|
She turned in a few who had been there
|
|
"I met a mysterious black man.
|
He kissed me and taught how to do harm"
|
|
343 days she spent in prison.
|
While the court sentenced her to death
|
A morning when the summer was at its warmest.
|
She was taken out and beheaded with another witch
|
|
Burned to ashes, spat on, despised
|
Buried into a hole outside of the holy ground
|
Shamefully she was laid to rest
|
Without ceremony and bell toll
