The Witch: “Wouldst Thou Like To Live Deliciously” Explained

What does The Witch quote “Wouldst thou like to live deliciously” mean? Director Robert Eggers wowed horror audiences and critics alike when his first feature film The Witch was released in 2015. Set in early 17th century New England, the folk horror follows a family of English settlers ousted from their Puritan colony over a religious dispute who take up residence on the edge of a foreboding forest to eke out a living on a meager, isolated farmstead. Almost immediately, the family is plagued by a series of ominous events.
