But if this is supposed to be an essay upon an essay about the burning (and hanging and "pressing" - a form of torture using rocks placed up on a person in a supine position to make them confess to being a witch) of people accused of being witches, then it misses the mark because it completely leaves out King James I's obsession with persecution of witches (do unto others *before* they do unto you) - not all women, btw - which seems to have been spawned by his attendance at the North Berwick witch trials in Scotland. He later wrote a little ditty called, Daemonologie, In Forme of a Dialogie, Diuided into three Bookes. By James Rx (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daemonologie) in 1597.
