“are witches not, in truth, ‘simple raving creatures’ suffering from ‘melancholique imaginations’? Again, no … we find some 16th-century body-shaming given as the reason. Apparently, those who have a ‘natural humour of the melancholie’ are lean, pale and ‘desire of solitude’, but, in sharp contrast, a great number of witches are ‘rich and worldly-wise, some of them fatte or corpulent in their bodies” How lovely

“Worth attended a second sitting … at which a white-shrouded vision appeared — rather pathetically, this turned out to be Helen covered in a sheet, which she was caught attempting to hide when she was apprehended.” How do you recover from getting caught doing that ? The SHAME

“The more doubting among us might think …, was it possible that Jean was merely horribly hungover and looking for someone to blame? … The gossips would have been in overdrive about this wild, ungodly woman — unless of course none of this was Jean’s fault, unless Jean had been the victim of a terrible witch or two. It was coincidence, surely, that she owed one of them money.”

“To the modern eye it may seem that God was not much fun and insistently cracked down on what small amount of pleasure could be had in such difficult times, but Reverend Logan would have been assured he was helping to save their immortal souls.” Yeah, I don’t think God would be much fun

“the prosecutor threatened the jury, telling them that acquitting the defendants would essentially align them with the Devil, making them ‘accessory to all the blasphemies, apostasies, murders, tortures, and seductions etc’. Somewhat unsurprisingly, all seven were found guilty.” That comes as a shock to everyone

“women were viewed as being difficult and foolish as well as being sexually dangerous*
* Riddle us this: men were morally stronger than women, but they also had to be on their guard not to be tempted to sexual impropriety by those sneaky sex pots.” Yeah, that’s one of their greatest contradictions

“not unlike the jackdaw, women are easily enticed with shiny items and fripperies. They look not into the depths but seek only the surface reflection.
And this is as it should be.
Women were made by God to be man’s inferior in order to assist and support their men and fulfil their physical potential unto the glory of God.” I love this

“Eve fell prey to the temptations of the serpent, whereas Adam did not. And why was she entranced by the Devil’s appalling charms?
Because she was designed that way.
As we all know and is clear in our everyday dealings, man is superior not only in physical size and strength, but in every conceivable manner. Even the most intelligent of women can never be a true match for man.” Nice.

“The Devil responded that the King was the greatest enemy he had in the world. …*
* The subtext here is that the King of Scotland must be exceedingly virtuous and godly if he is the Devil’s greatest adversary. How lucky the people of Scotland are to have such a holy man to protect them from the Devil and his minions. And how lucky the English would be if he were to become their King too!” How convenient

“they found the Devil’s mark on her throat*
* A Devil’s mark (or witch’s mark) was a blemish such as a mole, skin tag, wart, scar or unhealed area on the body. It might not bleed or hurt when the skin is ‘pricked’. The mark was said to be physical proof of the Devil’s pact with his initiate.” I would be SO FUCKED lmaoooo
