In thunder, lightning, or in rain?

When the battle’s lost and won.

1st Witch. Where the place?
2nd Witch. Upon the heath.
3rd Witch. There to meet with Macbeth.”

You changed all that. You set me free to reign.
You are the Emancipator of your God,
And as such I promote you to a saint.”

drag out forgotten fruit
to dance the flame-tango,
the smoke-gavotte,
to live after all....”
