Come, sisters, come, let us screech at the windows, let us blow out the candles and breathe on their hair, <o:p></o:p>
we've shadowed the moon and called up the night-wind, the owl and the cat and the broom will be there. <o:p></o:p>
Let us turn their blood chill with the sight of our faces, let us touch them with fingers both crooked and cold, <o:p></o:p>
and then shrilly laughing we'll be off to the hill tops to frisk and to frolic as always of old. <o:p></o:p>
Did you hear them? Were they saying scary things to shake the knees? Or was that but breezes playing in the dry and brittle trees?
