he believed it went against everything he believed in
Explanation:
He was accused of witchcraft, along with his wife, by his misstress, he at first didn´t want to confess about the affair because he was concerned for his reputation and he thought that everything abigail was saying about him was against what he believed in, at first he thought the charges would be disestimated and that´s why he didn´t confess the affair, but in the end, not even confesing that the woman was angry at them because of the affair the two of them had could save him, or his wife.
