It was on a dreary night of November [...]. It was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out, when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open ...
Mary Shelley, Frankenstein
As it is Halloween i thought i would share with you one of my favourite poems:
ReplyDelete"Song of the Witches" by William Shakespeare:
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and caldron bubble.
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 howlet’s wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and caldron bubble.
Cool it with a baboon’s blood,
Then the charm is firm and good.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!!
Very nice picture. I'm glad I'm not the only one of our class posting about Halloween.
