Mephistopheles (Dancing with the old witch.)

                A vile dream once came to me,
                In it, I saw an old cleft tree,
                A monstrous crack there met my eyes,
                It pleased me, though, despite its size.

The Old Witch

4140            I offer my best greetings to
                The knight of the cloven shoe!
                He’ll need to have a real stopper,
                If he’s not scared of that whopper.
