In the story, a family of white people is worried about security. Riots occur in the city, in "coloured neighbourhoods", even black maids have been attacked by thieves . So, the mother and son notice that some neighbours have placed a series of jagged metal wires on top of the gate and they decide to do the same.
One night, the mother tells her son a bedtime story about a prince who climbs through a bush of thorns to bring Sleeping Beauty back to life. The next day, the boy recognizes the jagged swire on the wall as representative of his own bush, and he attempts to climb them in an attempt to duplicate what the prince did. The boy becomes tangled in the metal coil, cut and stabbed and torn . As he struggles and screams in agonizing pain, he becomes further trapped in the metal wire and he finally dies.
The humor is shown in the way the trials were conducted; First of all, they were <u>advertised</u> - like an entertainment spectacle or a circus show.
- <em>"Accordingly the Time and Place was agreed on, and advertised about the Country; "</em>
These witch trials are ridiculed because they are referred to as an <em>Experiment - </em>supposedly based on facts and reason to prove someone is guilty, and alluding to science experiments - when in reality they were not logical at all.
- <em>"(...) if the Accused were weighed in Scales against a Bible, the Bible would prove too heavy for them; or that, if they were bound and put into the River, they would swim;"</em>
In the end they decide to repeat the trials, and they promise nudity to attract a bigger audience.
- <em>" But it being the general Belief of the Populace, that the Womens Shifts, and the Garters with which they were bound help’d to support them; </em><u><em>it is said they are to be tried again the next warm Weather, naked.</em></u><em>"</em>
