Oh there were twelve witches bold | |
And they lived in the north, | |
And their equals were not seen | |
On the face of the earth. | |
The first witch, with her hand, | |
The storm could hush, | |
And the second witch could stop | |
All the torrents rush. | |
And the third witch, she could strike | |
Upon the golden lyre, | |
And she charmed both young and old | |
Into the dancing fire. | |
Rowan tree, red thread, | |
Hold the witches all in dread. | |
The fourth witch she could dive | |
In the sea as a fish, | |
And the fifth witch she never wanted | |
Any meat on a dish. | |
And now the next witch go | |
Under the earth could she, | |
And the seventh witch could dance | |
Upon the rolling sea. | |
And the eighth witch on her horn | |
She would blow a blast, | |
And everyone who heard | |
Would shudder and stand aghast. | |
Rowan tree, red thread, | |
Hold the witches all in dread. | |
Oh the ninth witch she tamed all | |
That in the greenwood crept, | |
And the tenth witch, not a nap | |
She had ever slept. | |
The eleventh witch, the grisly | |
Lindworm bound, | |
And the twelfth witch she could all | |
Things understand. | |
And these twelve witches bold, | |
They all lived in the north, | |
And their equals were not seen | |
On the face of the earth. | |
Rowan tree, red thread, | |
Hold the witches all in dread...... |
