Why are you dallying?
What then? What?
Caleb? Caleb!
Stop it.
I meant no harm in it.
What's the matter with thee?
Come hither.
What's the matter with thee, eh?
I've seen no apples since we went from England.
I would thou hadst found them.
I so wish for one.
Hear that?
Who's there?
I be the Witch of the Wood!
Mercy, come out.
I be not Mercy,
I be the Witch of the Wood and I have come to steal ye.
Hear me stick a flying through the trees:
Clickety-clackity, clickety-clackity!
- Mercy! - Clickety-clackity.
Why is it when thou dost a wrong,
I be a washing Father's clothes like a slave,
- and thou art playing idle? - Because Mother hates you.
Spoilled child. I'll tell Mother you've left the farm alone.
Black Phillip saith I can do what I like.
Devil take your Black Phillip.
It's your fault I can't leave the yard.
I could go to the brook before you let The Witch take Sam.
- Quiet, thee. - It were a wolf stole Sam.
A witch. I've seen her in her riding cloak, about the wood.
- Father showed me the tracks. - It was a witch.
It was a witch, Mercy, you speak aright.
- Thomasin! - It was I.
It was I what stole him, I be the witch of the wood.
- Liar! Liar! - I am.
List not to her, Mercy.
I am that very witch.
When I sleep, my spirit slips away from my body
and dances naked with The Devil.
- That's how I signed his book. - No.
He bade me bring him an unbaptized babe,
so I stole Sam and I gave him to me master.
And I'll make any man or thing else vanish I like.
And I'll vanish thee, too, if thou displeaseth me.
- Be quiet! - Mercy, she's but telling fantasies.
Perchance I boil and bake thee since we're lack of food.
Stop, Thomasin!
- It's not true! - It is, thou thing!
How I crave to sink my teeth into thy pink flesh.
If ever thou tellst thy Mother of this,
I'll witch thee and thy Mother! And Jonas too!
Stop thy tears and swear by silence.
- I swear it. - You'll not tell Mother nor father.
- I swear. - Thomasin!
