“But when I heard that this old man, who went from accuser to being the accused, had been staked out on his back in a field and the deputies had piled stone upon stone on his chest, it made me wonder about the kind of people who were convicting us. Where was Satan? Wasn’t he hiding in the folds of the judges’ coats? Wasn’t he speaking in the voices of these magistrates and men of religion?”
