LEICESTER WAITS AT THE STILE 360A TOUCH OF BLACK MAGICI draw the wizard's circle upon the sands, and blue flames spring from itscircumference. I describe an inner circle, and green flames comeresponsive to my words of magic. I touch the common centre of both with mywand, and red flames, like adders' tongues, leap from the earth. Overthese flames I place my caldron filled with the blood of a new-killed doe,and as it boils I speak my incantations and make my mystic signs andpasses, watching the blood-red mist as it rises to meet the spirits ofAir. I chant my conjurations as I learned them from the Great Key ofSolomon, and while I speak, the ruddy fumes take human forms. Out of thedark, fathomless Past--the Past of near four hundred years ago--comes agoodly company of simple, pompous folk all having a touch of childishsavagery which shows itself in the fierceness of their love and of theirhate.
