Bide the Wiccan Laws we must,
in Perfect Love and Perfect Trust 
Live and let live, 
fairly take and fairly give 
Cast the Circle thrice about,
to keep the evil spirits out 
To bind the spell every time, 
let the spell be spake in rhyme 
Soft of eye and light of touch,
speak little, listen much 
Deosil by the waxing moon,
chanting out the Witches' Rune 
Widdershins go by the waning moon,
chanting out the baneful rune 
When the Lady's moon is new, 
kiss the hand to her, times two 
When the moon rides at her peak, 
then your heart's desire seek 
Heed the North wind's mighty gale, 
lock the door and drop the sail 
When the wind comes from the South, 
love will kiss thee on the mouth 
When the wind blows from the West, 
departed souls will have no rest 
When the wind blows from the East, 
expect the new and set the feast 
Nine woods in the cauldron go, 
burn them fast and burn them slow 
Elder be the Lady's tree, 
burn it not or cursed you'll be 
When the Wheel begins to turn, 
let the Beltane fires burn 
When the Wheel has turned to Yule,
light the log and the Horned One rules 
Heed ye Flower, Bush and Tree,
by the Lady, blessed be 
Where the rippling waters go,
cast a stone and truth you'll know 
When ye have a true need, 
hearken not to others' greed 
With a fool no season spend, 
lest ye be counted as his friend 
Merry meet and merry part, 
bright the cheeks and warm the heart 
Mind the Threefold Law you should, 
three times bad and three times good 
When misfortune is enow, 
wear the blue star on thy brow 
True in Love ever be, 
lest thy lover's false to thee 
Eight words in the Wiccan Rede, 
An' it harm none, do as ye will
