| To Enchant a Ring For Marrying |
| Buy a ring of common metal, Plain and narrow, colored gold, To fit the wedding finger well; Drop in a vessel filled Half with wineand half with water, Two of bay and two of grass, And the name of whom you love Written on a silver paper; Keep the vessel covered tight Near a window, in the sun, From crescent Moon until the full-- Then rub the ring and wear it hidden On a string around your neck; But never tell the name you seek Until you take it for your own. |
