set of sun.

_1st Witch._ Where the place?

_2d Witch._ Upon the heath;

_3d Witch._ There to meet with Macbeth.

_1st Witch._ I come Grimalkin!

_All._ Paddock calls:--anon--
Fair is foul, and foul is fair;
Hover through the fog and filthy air.

THE CHARM

_1st Witch._ Thrice the brinded cat hath mewed.

_2d Witch._ Thrice: and once the hedgehog whined.

_3d Witch._ Harpier cries:--'Tis time, 'tis time:

_1st Witch._ Round about the caldron go:
In the poison'd entrails throw.
Toad, that under the cold stone,
Days and nights hast thirty-one
Swelter'd venom sleeping got,
Boil thou first i' the charmed pot!

_All._ Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and, caldron, bubble.

_2d Witch._ Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron 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.

_All._ Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and, caldron, bubble.

_3d Witch._ Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf;
Witches' mummy; maw and gulf
Of the ravin'd salt sea shark;
Root of hemlock, digged i' the dark;
Liver of blaspheming Jew;
Gall of goat, and slips of yew
Sliver'd in the moon's eclipse;
Nose of Turk, and Tartar's lips;
Add thereto a tiger's chaudron,
For the ingredients of our caldron.

_All._ Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and, caldron, bubble.

_2d Witch._ Cool it with a baboon's blood,
Then the charm is firm and good.

_W. Shakespeare_

_ADELGITHA_

The ordeal's fatal trumpet sounded,
And sad pale Adelgitha came,
When forth a valiant champion bounded,
And slew the slanderer of her fame.

She wept, deliver'd from her danger;
But when he knelt to claim her glove--
'Seek not,' she cried, 'oh! gallant stranger,
For hapless Adelgitha's love.

'For he is in a
