Storyboard Text
- We shall need hard study if it comes to tracking down the Old Boy. You cannot be Rebecca Nurse?
- Well, you do come prepared!
- I am, sir. Do you know me?
- Her soul, her soul seems flown away. She sleeps and yet she walks . . .
- It does not seem to help us today, Mr. Hale. We look to you to come to our house and save our child.
- Will you look at my daughter, sir? She has tried to leap out the window; we discovered her this morning on the highroad, waving her arms as though she’d fly.
- Tries to fly.
- I never spoke on witches one way or the other. Will you come, Giles?
- She cannot bear to hear the Lord’s name, Mr. Hale; that’s a sure sign of witchcraft afloat.
- No—no, John, I think not. I have some few queer questions of my own to ask this fellow.
- Aye, we’ll discuss it. Now mark me, if the Devil is in her you will witness some frightful wonders in this room, so please to keep your wits about you. Mr. Putnam, stand close in case she flies. Now, Betty, dear, will you sit up? Hmmm.
- I’m not sayin’ my wife's touched the Devil, now, but I’d admire to know what books she reads and why she hides them. She’ll not answer me, y’ see.
