Last year the city built the hexenhaus, to keep all the witches.  When Father announced it, I felt such comfort.  I thought it was a wonderful building, showing our pious citizens’ determination to root out the evil in our city.  Father was enthusiastic about it, too.  Now it frightens me.  How could so many witches have existed among us for so long without our knowing?
