craft delusion now exists or in which
it prevailed in former times we find
folklore stories connecting those mys-
FERROUS bogies with the plants of those
particular regions. Even the great
Shakespeare causes his witches to dis
course learnedly on the diabolical
properties of "hemlock digg'd + dark"
and of ''slips of yew silvered in the
moons eclipse" They are supposed
to have had their favorite flowers as
present time foxglove is spoken of as
witch bells" and harebells as witch
es thimbles." The common ragwort
Is well known as the witches horse"
the tradition being that they mounted
rank growths of that species of weed
and rode the Skies" just as the dame
with the pointed hat rides the broom
In the familiar picture. In Germany
and throughout northern Europe 1t is
the belief that witches float from place
to place on beds of hay, composed
largely of witches blossoms and devil
