[Bridge]

(The full moon floats amidst fluffy clouds as we recap The Devil of Winterborne over scenes of a man in 17th Century garb being hung.)

PURCELL [OC]: If he is to find the true path, the subject must take in the blood of a young man in his eighteenth year, extinguishing said youth's life in a special or holy place.
CHRISTIAN: For God so loved the world that he gave his only-begotten son, that we might not perish, but have eternal life.
GREATOREX: Farewell.
CHRISTIAN: It's really quite simple, but I don't expect you'll understand. You see, I am Isaac Greatorex.

[Woods]

(A young man with spectacles finds a hanging body.)
