Come; you shall ride behind me on the pillion.
MARTHA.
Not I.

You know I do not like such things.
I wonder you should.

I do not believe In Witches nor in Witchcraft.

There's a strange fascination in it all.

COREY.
Surely what's in the Bible must be true.
Did not an Evil Spirit come on Saul?
Did not the Witch of Endor bring the ghost Of Samuel from his grave?

MARTHA.
That happened very long ago.
COREY.
With God There is no long ago.
MARTHA.
There is with us.

[Exit into the house.
COREY.
And I will go and saddle the gray mare.
The last word always.
