Witches
From Shakespeare’s Macbeth
Act IV, Scene I

Double, double toil and trouble
Fire burn and cauldron bubble

Eye of newt and toe of frog
Wool of bat and tongue of dog
Adder's fork and blind-worm's sting
Lizard's leg and owlet's wing

Thrice the brinded cat hath mew'd
Thrice and once the hedge-pig whined
Harpier cries 'Tis time, 'tis time!

Thus do go about, about:
Thrice to thine and thrice to mine
And thrice again, to make up nine
Peace! the charm's wound up

By the pricking of my thumbs
Something wicked this way comes…
