Literature

Weeping Brides A notion long prevailed in this country that it augured ill for a matrimonial alliance if the bride did not weep profusely at the wedding.
As no witch could shed more than three tears, and those from her left eye only, a copious flow of tears gave assurance to the husband that the lady had not "plighted her troth" to Satan, and was no witch. Source: Brewer's Dictionary.
