The Wiccan Rede

Ride ye wiccan laws ye must
In perfect love and perfect trust,
Live and let live,
Fairly take and fairly give.
Form the circle thrice about,
To keep all evil spirits out.
To bind ye spell everytime,
Let ye spell be spoke in rhyme.
Soft of eye, light of touch,
Speak ye little, listen much.
Deosil go by the waxing moon,
Singing out ye Witches Rune.
Widdershins go by the waning moon,
Singing out ye Baneful Rune.
When the lady's moon is new,
Kiss your hand to her times two.
When the moon rides at her peak,
Then ye hearts desire seek.
Heed the north winds mighty gale,
Lock the door and trim the sail.
When the wind somes from the south,
Love will kiss thee on the mouth.
When the wind blows from the west,
Departed souls may have no rest.
When the wind blows from the east,
Expect the new and set the feast.
Nine woods in ye cauldron go,
Burn them fast and burn them slow.
Elder be ye lady's tree,
Burn it not or cursed ye'll be.
When the wheel begins to turn,
Soon ye Beltain fire'll burn.
When the wheel hath turned a Yule,
Light a log, the horned one rules.
Heed ye flower, bush and tree,
By the lady, Blessed Be.
Where the rippling water flow,
Cast a stone and truth ye'll know.
When ye have and hold a need,
Harken not to others greed.
With a fool no season spend,
Nor be counted as his friend.
Merry Meet and Merry Part,
Bright the cheeks and warm the heart.
Mind ye threefold laws ye should,
Three times bad and three times good.
When misfortune is anow,
Wear a star upon thy brow.
Ture in love ye must ever be,
Lest thy love be false to three.
In these eight words the Wiccan Rede fulfill,
An ye harm none, do what ye will.
