Prepare the incense, grinding soil with spice
Touch secret, sacred symbols to the skin
Bind herbs with salt and sulphur, turning twice
Release the ancient energies within
Set candles at each pentagrammic point
Arrange the crystals, each to trace its twin
With burning oils, the circle now anoint
The summoning of shadows may begin
Let bones of divination all be cast
To satisfy the spirits in their realm
Bring forth the spectral shadows of the past
With crowns of twisted willow, ash and elm
And should these shadows burn the heavens black
Return the spells to get your money back
