Summon The FiendСтихи У. Шекспира из трагедии "Макбет"; повествовательные связки от Деметра; музыка ЕвгенияThree warlocks and nine witches have gathered for the summoning of Devil in the tenebrious glade within Nebelforst on Sabbath. Bodeful thunderous Night. The warlocks boil the loathsome ointment in the silvern cauldron, tapestried with pelt and glyph-scored with druids' hierograms. They troll incantations and stir the potion at the same time. The rite of Invocation begins! First warlock: Thrice the branded cat hath mew'd. Second warlock: Thrice, and once the hedge-pig whin'd. Third warlock: Harpier cries, 'tis time, 'tis time. First warlock (whose patrimonial name’s noble Morphiy): Round 'bout the cauldron go In the poison'd entrails throw. Toad, that under frosty stone, Days and nights, has thirty one Swelter'd venom sleeping got, Boil thou first i' th' charmed pot with rot. Chant of witches: Double, double, toil and trouble Fire burn, and cauldron bubble. Fillet of a fenny snake, In the cauldron 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 howlet's wing For a charm of powerful trouble, Like a hell-broth, boil and bubble. Chant of witches: Double, double, toil and trouble Fire burn, and cauldron bubble. Second warlock (bemoaned after death without name): Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf, Witch's mummy, maw, and gulf Of the ravin'd salt-sea shark Root of hemlock, digg'd i' th' 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 th' ingredients of our cauldron. Third warlock (initiate in host of Merezin): Cool it with a baboon's blood, Then the charm is firm and good. First warlock: By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes Open locks, whoever knocks. |
