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 |
