Something Wicked by Murray Tinkelman

Posted on 12:04 by Unknown
"Round about the cauldron go;
In the poison'd entrails throw."


Tinkelman58.detail04

"Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog,"

Tinkelman58.detail03

"For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble."


Tinkelman58.detail02

"Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf,
Witches' mummy, maw and gulf"


Tinkelman58.detail01

"By the pricking of my thumbs,
Something wicked this way comes."
