But she schooled
her daughters well...

1:22:05
while we lived as outcasts
in the Western Woods.

1:22:09
She died within a year.
1:22:16
My sister and I remained
in our refuge,

1:22:18
seeing not a soul.
1:22:22
Until one day,
whilst gathering firewood,

1:22:26
we crossed the path
of the Hessian.

1:22:29
- Shh.
- [Twig Snaps]

1:22:33
I saw his death.
1:22:36
At that moment,
I offered my soul to Satan...

1:22:39
if he would raise the Hessian
from the grave to avenge me.

1:22:48
- Avenge you?
- Against Van Garrett.

1:22:51
The land lord who showed us no mercy
and left us to starve, while...

1:22:55
Baltus Van Tassel and his simpering wife
and girl child stole our home.

1:22:59
I swore I would make myself
mistress of all he had.

1:23:03
The easiest part was the first.
1:23:05
To enter your house
as your mother's sick nurse,

1:23:08
and put her body into the grave
and my own into the marriage bed.

1:23:11
Not quite so easy
was to secure my legacy.

1:23:16
The widow had to go,
of course,

1:23:18
and the servant Masbath.
1:23:21
And just the other day,
that silly midwife, Killian,

1:23:24
told me the widow had told her
a big secret.

1:23:28
And she told me this
right in front of her husband.

1:23:31
What a goose!
1:23:33
So, another little job
for the Horseman.

1:23:38
But lust delivered
the reverend Steenwyck into my power.

1:23:45
Fear did the same
for the Notary Hardenbrook...

1:23:47
and the drunkard Philipse.
1:23:50
And the doctor's silence
I exchanged...

1:23:52
for my complicity in his fornication
with the servant girl, Sarah.

1:23:58
Yes, you have
everything now.
