that she- she sometimes made compact with lucifer and wrote his name in his black book with her blood and bound herself to torment christians till gods thrown down and we must all worship he’ll forevermore
but surely you know how much of a jubberer she is. did you tell them that?
mr proctor in open court she near choked us all to death!
how choked you?
she sent her spirit out
mary surely you
she tried to kill me many times goody proctor
i’ve never heard to mention it before
i never knew it before i never knew anything before but then i say to myself i musnt accuse this woman as she sleeps in ditches so old and poor but then she sit there denying and denying and i feel a misty coldness climbing up my back and and the skin on my skull begins to creep and i feel a clamp around my neck and i cannot breathe air then i hear a voice, a screaming voice and it were my voice and all at once i remember everything she done to me
what did she do to you?
so many times mr proctor she come to this door beggin bread and a cup of cider and mark this whenever i turned her away she mumbled
she may mumble hungry
but what does she mumble you must remember goody proctor last month a monday i think she walked away and i thought my guts would burst for two days after do you remember it?
why.. i do i think but
and so i told that to judge hathorne and he asks her “goody good” so says she “what curse do you mumble that this girl must fall sick after turning you away?” and then she replies “why your excellence no curse at all i only say my commandments i hope i may say my commandments” says she!
and thats an upright answer
aye but then judge hathorne say “recite for us your commandments!” and of all of the ten she could not say a single one she never knew no commandments she had us in a cold lie!
but the proof the proof
i told you the proof it is hard proof hard as rock the judges said
you will not go to court again mary warren
i must tell you sir i will be gone everyday now i am amazed you dont see what weighty work we do
what work you do! its strange for a christian girl to hang old woman!
but mr proctor they will not hand them if they confess sarah good will only sit in jail for some time and heres a wonder for you, think on this goody good is pregnant
