Probably even know who I was talking about if I mentioned the Prince of Denmark. (And I don't mean Frederik.) Alas, poor Lollipoop . . . From Hulda's latest book..The Cure for All Wealth (Except Mine): Round about the cauldron go; In the poison'd entrails throw. Toad, that under cold stone Days and nights has 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 owlet'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. Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf, Witches' mummy, maw and gulf Of the ravin'd salt-sea shark, Root of hemlock digg'd i' the dark, Liver of blaspheming Jew, Gall of goat, and slips of yew Silver'd in the moon's eclipse, Nose of Turk and Tartar's lips, Finger of birth-strangled babe Ditch-deliver'd by a drab, Make the gruel thick and slab: Add thereto a tiger's chaudron, For the ingredients of our cauldron. Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn and cauldron bubble. Cool it with a baboon's blood, Then the charm is firm and good. ---------------- And, that is how to make a good cleanse... Yes, but you also need three witches. Hulda and Lollipoop are only two. Rich, you disappoint me...I cannot mention the third.... "She Who Must Not Be Named" Cathy The three witches in 'MacBeth' disappear at the end of act 1, scene one. Too bad our witches can't learn that trick. Agreed. |
