Text Appearing Before Image:
I am a poisonous worm,No hurt I 11 do to thee. He quitted his sword and bent his bow, And gave her kisses three;She crept into a hole a worm,But out stept a lady. Percy prints the ballad of the Witch of Wokey, written in 1748, by theingenious Dr. Harrington of Bath. She blasted every plant around; and wasencountered, not by a knight, but by a lemed wight, who having chauntedeout a goodlie booke, and sprinkled, plentifully, holy water,— Lo, where stood a hag before,Now stood a ghastly stone !• The arbalast and arrow here engraved, are copied from specimens of the time of Elizabeth,in the possession of Sir Samuel Meyrick, at Goodrich Court, and have been engraved in Skelton s Illustrations of Ancient Arms and Armour. The string of the arbalast, or arbalist, was drawnto the notch in the centre by means of a wheel, which was usually hung to the girdle of the archer. O, quit thy sword and bend thy bow, And give me kisses three;If Im not won, ere the sun goes down, Won I shall never be.
