That old sorcerer has vanished 
And for once has gone away! 
Spirits called by him, now banished, 
My commands shall soon obey. 
Every step and saying 
That he used, I know, 
And with sprites obeying 
My arts I will show.

    Flow, flow onward 
    Stretches many 
    Spare not any
    Water rushing, 
    Ever streaming fully downward 
    Toward the pool in current gushing.
Come, old broomstick, you are needed, 
Take these rags and wrap them round you! 
Long my orders you have heeded, 
By my wishes now I've bound you. 
Have two legs and stand, 
And a head for you. 
Run, and in your hand 
Hold a bucket too.

    Flow, flow onward 
    Stretches many, 
    Spare not any 
    Water rushing, 
    Ever streaming fully downward 
    Toward the pool in current gushing.
See him, toward the shore he's racing 
There, he's at the stream already, 
Back like lightning he is chasing, 
Pouring water fast and steady. 
Once again he hastens! 
How the water spills, 
How the water basins 
Brimming full he fills!

    Stop now, hear me! 
    Ample measure 
    Of your treasure 
    We have gotten! 
    Ah, I see it, dear me, dear me. 
    Master's word I have forgotten!
Ah, the word with which the master 
Makes the broom a broom once more! 
Ah, he runs and fetches faster! 
Be a broomstick as before! 
Ever new the torrents 
That by him are fed, 
Ah, a hundred currents 
Pour upon my head!

    No, no longer 
    Can I please him, 
    I will seize him! 
    That is spiteful! 
    My misgivings grow the stronger. 
    What a mien, his eyes how frightful!
Brood of hell, you're not a mortal! 
Shall the entire house go under? 
Over threshold over portal 
Streams of water rush and thunder. 
Broom accurst and mean, 
Who will have his will, 
Stick that you have been, 
Once again stand still!

    Can I never, Broom, appease you? 
    I will seize you, 
    Hold and whack you, 
    And your ancient wood 
    I'll sever, 
    With a whetted axe I'll crack you.
He returns, more water dragging! 
Now I'll throw myself upon you! 
Soon, 0 goblin, you'll be sagging. 
Crash! The sharp axe has undone you. 
What a good blow, truly! 
There, he's split, I see. 
Hope now rises newly, 
And my breathing's free.

    Woe betide me! 
    Both halves scurry 
    In a hurry, 
    Rise like towers 
    There beside me. 
    Help me, help, eternal powers!
Off they run, till wet and wetter 
Hall and steps immersed are Iying. 
What a flood that naught can fetter! 
Lord and master, hear me crying! - 
Ah, he comes excited.
Sir, my need is sore. 
Spirits that I've cited
My commands ignore.

    "To the lonely 
    Corner, broom! 
    Hear your doom. 
    As a spirit 
    When he wills, your master only 
    Calls you, then 'tis time to hear it."

Incredibly epic picture but you drew him with brown hair. He's supposed to have black though. D=

Well, I'm a stickler for accuracy. But its still a good picture. (Y)

Svanhilde In reply to anonymous92 [2010-08-02 09:59:31 +0000 UTC]

No it's my imagination: in the book she just wear a black dress with a white rope around her waist I believe...Ah and a black coat in the 3rd book
