The Question Any Witch Can Answer

Going to sabbat, expect the tylers.

They'll stop you on your way through the woods. You'll know them by the leaves in their hats, and the gleam of their blades.

They'll ask you the question that any witch can answer.

Then, when you've answered rightly, they'll give you your token, and send you on.

Fear not, you'll know the answer. If you're of Ours, you'll know.

And if you're not of Ours, then?

Well, now.

 I'm going to the sabbat: do you want to come along?

I'm going to the sabbat: do you want to come along?

I'm going to the sabbat: do you want to come along?

We'll dance by the light of the Moon.

Poet, scholar and storyteller Steven Posch was raised in the hardwood forests of western Pennsylvania by white-tailed deer. (That's the story, anyway.) He emigrated to Paganistan in 1979 and by sheer dint of personality has become one of Lake Country's foremost men-in-black. He is current keeper of the Minnesota Ooser.

    I have never heard of these,
    I must say.
    But learn of them and become one of you,
    I will one day.
    For I have a high thought to thrive,
    On the Pagan life I will live and die.
