Witches’ Sabbath – Johannes Praetorius: Blockes-Berges Verrichtung, Leipzig u.a. 1668

“Now to the Brocken the witches ride;

The stubble is gold and the corn is green;

And Squire Urianus will come to preside.

So over the valley our company floats,

With witches a-farting on stinking old goats.”

    ~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
