Mandragora
- Bury the murderer at the crossroads at midnight
- gouge his eyes from their sockets with a stick
- Split his belly and spill the entrails
- Cleave his manhood and harvest his seeds:
- then grind them into the ground,
- feed the hungry earth.
-
- The root will rejoice with noisesome cries;
- take the sacrifice, accept its guise:
- and this above all else know the wise,
- that especially, specially, Mandrake loves the eyes.
