In the poison’d entrails throw.
Toad, that under cold stone
Days and nights hast thirty one
Swelter’d venom sleeping got,
Boil thou first i’ the charmed pot.
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and cauldron bubble.
Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the cauldron boil and bake;
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 howlet’s wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and cauldron bubble
The Three Witches from McBeth
By William Shakespeare

ReplyDeleteA perfectly creepy poem for a perfectly creepy Halloween!
ReplyDeleteIt's even creepier if you imagine that those witches are little girls of about 8 or 9.
ReplyDeleteI never knew that was written by Shakespeare.
ReplyDeleteYou have edumacated me!
Doesn't get much scarier than this! Thanks Will!
ReplyDeleteI actually had to recite this from memory in High School. I think I got a C+.
