Bide the Wiccan Laws we must
In Perfect Love and Perfect Trust.
Live and let live
Fairly take and fairly give.
Cast the Circle thrice about
To keep the evil spirits out.
To bind the spell every time
Let the spell be spake in rhyme.
Soft of eye and light of touch
Speak little, listen much.
Deosil go by the waxing moon
Chanting out the Witch's Rune.
Widdershins go by the waning moon
Chanting out the baneful rune.
When the Lady's moon is new
Kiss the hand to her, times two.
When the moon rides at her peak
Then the heart's desire seek.
Heed the North wind's mighty gale
Lock the door and drop the sail.
When the wind comes from the South
Love will kiss thee on thy mouth.
When the wind blows from the West
Departed souls will have no rest.
When the wind blows from the East
Expect the new and set the feast.
Nine woods in the cauldrons go
Burn them fast and burn them slow.
Elder be the Lady's tree
Burn it not, or cursed you'll be.
When the wheel begins to turn
Let the Beltane fires burn.
When the wheel has turned to Yule
Light the log and the Goddess* rules.
Heed ye Flower, Bush, and Tree
By the Lady, Blessed Be.
Where the rippling waters go
Cast a stone and the truth you'll know.
When ye have a true need
Hearken not to others' greed.
With a fool no season spend
Lest ye be counted as his friend.
Merry Meet and Merry Part
Bright the cheeks and warm the heart.
Mind the Threefold Law you should
Three times bad and three times good.
When misfortune is enow
Wear the blue star on thy brow.
True in love ever be
Lest thy lover's false to thee.
Eight words the Wiccan Rede fulfill
An ye harm none, do what ye will.
In Perfect Love and Perfect Trust.
Live and let live
Fairly take and fairly give.
Cast the Circle thrice about
To keep the evil spirits out.
To bind the spell every time
Let the spell be spake in rhyme.
