Who can be called a witch? Who can accuse of witchcraft, when in the world for practicing magic threatens to burn at the stake?
To prove that a woman is a witch used five attempts:
1. The sample of the water - the water was considered to be pure element, which does not accept the one who is to blame in itself. Witches after the marriage with the devil they were light as a feather, so it would be difficult to drown. An attempt was based on the fact that the accused was associated most often in a goat, that is his right hand with his left foot and left hand with his right foot. Then the woman thrown into the water. If drowning, it was proof of her innocence, and if it remained on the surface of the water it was a sign that she had contact with unclean forces.
2. Attempt to fire - based on the fact that the accused moved red-hot iron. Then she wrapped her hands dedicated to wax and sprinkled with holy water. This type of dressing was left for three days. If the wound to heal is to say that she was not a witch, but if the wound was healing badly it means that she was guilty.
3. Attempt to tears - was based on the belief that a witch can not shed no tears. The judge urged the woman to weep. Sometimes, however, the frightened women could not cry.
