The way these inquiries are traditionally done is that one submerges the person being queried under water for a period of time; if they do not drown, then they are a witch and are burned at the stake, whereas if they do drown, it proves their innocence, and their souls go straight up to heaven. Win-win!
It seems too much of a pain... after immersing them in the water, you end up having to take a lot of time drying them out before they'll burn well.
