Witches in Shakespeare’s Time
Witches in Shakespeare’s time were seen as horrid, cursing people, who brought wickedness and sickness to the world. If someone was a witch, they would be tried, and be tested to see if they were a witch. For example, a subject might be thrown into the lake. If they floated, they would be considered a honourable man/ woman and God would give them a place in heaven.
