“Thereupon followed,” writes M. S. Boxhorn,
“several additional solemn adjurations (these, however,
he does not relate), which, when the priest
had finished, the accused was stripped stark-naked,
and cast or driven into the water. If he sank, he
was considered innocent; but if he floated, he was
forthwith condemned and punished by fire, as being
guilty.” Page 26.

If any one should desire to read a full account
as regards said papistic adjurations over the water,
let him consult M. S. Boxhorn, Nederlandtsch
Hist., 1st book, pp. 25, 26.
