Now look you, all of you! ---We danced.
And that is all.
And mark this---
let anyone breathe a word
or the edge of a word
about the other things,
and I will come to you
in the black of some terrible night
and bring with me a pointy reckoning
that will shudder you.

And you know I can do it!
I saw Indians smash my dear parents' head
on the pillow next to mine,
and I have seen some reddish work done at night---
and I can make you wish
you'd never seen the sun go down!

Arthur Miller
from The Crucible
