Sister,where thou?
First Witch
A sailor's wife had chestnuts in her lap,
And munch'd,and munch'd,and munch'd:——
'Give me,' quoth I:
'Aroint thee,witch!' the rump -fed ronyoncries.
Her husband's to Aleppo gone,master o'the Tiger:
But in a sieve I'll thither sail,
And,like a rat without a tail,
I'll do,I'll do,and I'll do.
Second Witch
I'll give thee a wind.
First Witch
Thou'rt kind.
Third Witch
And I another.
First Witch
I myself have all the other,
And the very ports they blow,
All the quarters that they know
I'the shipman's card.
I will drain him dry as hay:
Sleep shall neither night nor day
Hang upon his pent-house lid;
He shall live a man forbid:
Weary se'nnights nine times nine
Shall he dwindle,peak and pine:
Though his bark cannot be lost,
Yet it shall be tempest -tost.
Look what I have.
Second Witch
Show me,show me.
First Witch
Here I have a pilot 's thumb,
wreck 'd as homeward he did come.
[Drum within]
Third Witch
A drum,a drum!
Macbeth doth come.
ALL
The weird sisters,hand in hand,
poster of the sea and land,
Thus do go about,about:
thrice to thine and thrice to mine.
And thrice again,to make up nine.
Peace!the charm's wound up.
[Enter MACBETH and BANQUO]
MACBETH
So foul and fair a day I have not seen.
BANQUO
How far is't call'd to Forres?What are these
