THE SPELL; A CHARME, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: Holy water come and bring
Last Line: Far from hence the evill sp'rite.
Subject(s): Magic


Holy Water come and bring;
Cast in Salt, for seasoning:
Set the Brush for sprinkling:
Sacred Spittle bring ye hither;
Meale and it now mix together;
And a little Oyle to either:
Give the Tapers here their light,
Ring the Saints-Bell, to affright
Far from hence the evill Sp'rite.
