North Berwick Witch Trials |
Grand master of the Sabbath, John Fane |
Told his coven gathered: «Kill King James» |
Wax a figure of his image & wrap it in his clothing |
Burn it slowly whist he is sleeping |
Feed him with poison, bring the monarchy down |
Our sin is rebellion, in black arts crowned |
3 covens of 39 |
In 1591 that night performed a rite |
A grand Sabbath with one aim in sight |
To destroy the king of England |
Create a storm, whilst overseas he sails |
To bring his Danish bride to these Isles |
They christened a cat in his name; |
Threw it in a pond, no shame |
A tempest was aroused, who should he blame |
Hunt down those Witches, confess or die |
Sink or swim, they’re guilty — let’s hang 'em high |
3 covens of 39 |
In 1591 that night performed a rite |
A grand Sabbath with one aim in sight |
To destroy the king of England |
Witchcraft spreading all around this Christian land |
Find them; |
burn them to the ground |
Their souls condemned |
Their ill fated curse failed so the king held trial |
The first great persecution of the British Isles |
An imp sucks a spinster’s nipple |
A hare drains milk from cattle |
A clergy fornicate at a black dog’s ball |
Pierce flesh with needles three inches in |
If they scream they’re guilty, guilty as sin |
3 covens slaughtered that night |
39 crucified, burned and hanged alive |
Interrogated at our first witch trials |
Sentenced by the king of England |
