And as he wrought he spelled

shade of gold. And he had dyes
of every hue, made up from
Ibarks and herbs and fruit, and he
could stain my sideboards blue,
SO all the girls would think me
cute. And he had perfumes Of
the rose, and hyacinths that died

bleach my nose and change the
color of my breath. He had
strange dope in wicker quarts
and salves and lotions by the
peck, he could eliminate my
warts and take the ringbone off
my neck. He told me that my
scalp was soiled and needed
treatment such as his; he talked
until my blood boiled, 500 all the
