“We must act akin to our ancestor Noah and rid our community of this evil. Sacrifice these demonic beings at the altar of God. Carry out your Christian duty, or find yourself drowning in sin with the rest of them! There is no rainbow, no dove and no sign of dry land until every last witch takes her last breath!
— The Minister, Act II, Scene IV
