With soul cleansed from all sorts of evil by sacrifices and other religious rites, he ruled the Earth like Indra ruling the Heaven. The illustrious king performed a great Horse-sacrifice in which his preceptor Vrihaspati became the Hota.
'Manasseh says Hota was well whipped by Pastor Tappau ere she was brought to confession, said Prudence, as if anxious to change the subject of discussion. Manasseh lifted up his head from the great folio Bible, brought by his father from England, which he was studying. He had not heard what Prudence said, but he looked up at the sound of his name.
Hota one bad wicked witch, she say so herself; oh, me! oh me! and stooping over Faith, she said something in a low, miserable tone of voice, of which Lois only heard the word 'torture. But Faith heard all, and turning very pale, half accompanied, half led Nattee back to her kitchen. Presently, Grace Hickson came in.
I wonder how long I might wriggle, before great and godly folk would take so much notice of me? But, I suppose, that comes of being a pastor's daughter. She'll be so set up there'll be no speaking to her now. Faith! thinkest thou that Hota really had bewitched her?
In the midst of this talk, one, entering in from the street, brought the news that Hota had confessed all had owned to signing a certain little red book which Satan had presented to her had been present at impious sacraments had ridden through the air to Newbury Falls and, in fact, had assented to all the questions which the elders and magistrates, carefully reading over the confessions of the witches who had formerly been tried in England, in order that they might not omit a single inquiry, had asked of her.
Hester turned wearily and uneasily, and moaned out the name of Hota, her father's Indian servant. Hota was present, apparently as much interested as any one; indeed, she had been busying herself much in bringing remedies to the suffering child. But now she stood aghast, transfixed, while her name was caught up and shouted out in tones of reprobation and hatred by all the crowd around her.
The last comer said, that her words might be brought to the proof, for it had been whispered that Hota had named others, and some from the most religious families of Salem, whom she had seen among the unholy communicants at the sacrament of the Evil One.
