vince the inmates, at least. that there may be
no hell IN the other world, because it has been
transferred to this. The testimony shows

screams from the dungeon were often heard
those suspected Of lying were covered with al
cohol and sex on fire; if il burned them it was
supposed they would confess. In fact, there
do not seem to be many inventions OF the In

methods were simpler. The torturers did not
waste time in inyenting machines; they pro
