They stick with pins my bleeding seat, And bld me Show my secret teat. Your genuine Witch was believed to be incapable of shed ding tears, and if through torture she could be made to weep, her power had departed and she became a helpless victim to justice. King James says They cannot even shed tears, though women in general are like the crocodile, ready to weep upon every light occasion.
