Tixall Poetry.
Then bring my bath, and strow my bed,
As each kind night returnes;
He change my mistris till I'm dead,
And fate change me to wormes.

The Witches Song.


Lets have a dance upon this heath,
We gaine more life by Duncans death.
Sometimes like brinded cats we shew,
Having no musicke but our mew;
While we dance in some old mill,
About the hopper stone, or wheele,
To some old saier bardy shrine,
Whilst the mill clacke it doth keepe time.

Sometimes about a hollow tree,
Around, around, around dance we;
