The last of the Cunning Men is here –
I have the hair from your comb. I have the hair from your drains –
Tonight I will burn it. Tonight I will bury it.
All the beasts of the field here too –
The birds and the badgers. The foxes and the ferrets –
The dogs and the demons. The wolves and the vultures –
Come to devour, to eat you.
