The Latin "scribo" means write, and because in former days to write meant to draw up a law It took on the meaning of Imposing a penalty. In matters of religion the word became "shrive", and "to give short shrift" was the small time given to a man about to be hanged in which to con. fess and receive absolu- tion. The phrase now means to give little or no. mercy.
