You spend more on electric on the damn computer than over your caldron of lead.

William Shakespeare (1564-1616)[/SIZE]
from Macbeth
A dark Cave. In the middle, a Caldron boiling. Thunder.
Enter the three Witches.
1 W[SIZE=-2]ITCH. [/SIZE] Thrice the brinded cat hath mew'd.
2 W[SIZE=-2]ITCH. [/SIZE] Thrice and once, the hedge-pig whin'd.
3 W[SIZE=-2]ITCH. [/SIZE] Harpier cries:—'tis time! 'tis time!
1 W[SIZE=-2]ITCH. [/SIZE] Round about the caldron go;
In the poison'd entrails throw.—
Toad, that under cold stone,
Days and nights has thirty-one;
Swelter'd venom sleeping got,
Boil thou first i' the charmed pot!
A[SIZE=-2]LL. [/SIZE] Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
2 W[SIZE=-2]ITCH. [/SIZE] 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.
A[SIZE=-2]LL. [/SIZE] Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
3 W[SIZE=-2]ITCH. [/SIZE] Scale of dragon; tooth of wolf;
Witches' mummy; maw and gulf
Of the ravin'd salt-sea shark;
Root of hemlock digg'd 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;
Finger of birth-strangled babe
Ditch-deliver'd by a drab,—
Make the gruel thick and slab:
Add thereto a tiger's chaudron,
For the ingrediants of our caldron.
A[SIZE=-2]LL. [/SIZE] Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
2 W[SIZE=-2]ITCH. [/SIZE] Cool it with a baboon's blood,
Then the charm is firm and good.
