The little creature

Twinkum, twankum, twirlum and twitch

My great grandam -- She was a witch.

Mouse in wainscot, saint in niche

My great grandam -- She was a witch.

The fattest pig's but a double flitch

My great grandam--She was a witch.

Long though the shroud, it grows stitch by stitch

My great grandam -- She was a witch.

Pretty and small, a mere nothing at all

She'd stand by the churchyard and call and call...

Red blood out and black blood in

My nanny says I'm a child of sin

How did I choose me my witchly kin?

Twinkum, twankum, twirlum and twitch

My great grandam -- She was a witch.
