"It is obviously a spell that will
transform you into the most beautiful creature to ever walk the face of
the earth."
"Oh, my," said the Witch-clone with obvious delight. "Well, let's get
started! What are you waiting for?"
Graham cleared his throat and began to "read" from the book:
"_Find a slimy little pickle.
Rub it with a shiny nickel.
Drop it in a Witch's hat.
Add seventeen eggs on top of that.
Top that off with a bowl of Jell-O
and spittle from a little fellow.
Add some sour cream and chives
and honey directly from the hives._
[Illustration]
_Now add one pint of strawberry jam
(preferably bought from Knott's Berry Farm).
Then bend thy head towards thy legs
and press said hat upon thy head.
Now stand and then induce a friend to pull it down
below thy crown.
Wait at least a half-an-hour.
Take off the hat and dust with flour.
Now look in the mirror and thou shalt see
none more lovelier than thee."_
"Oh, that does sound absolutely divine!" cried the Witch. "Quick! Help
me gather the materials together so we can start immediately."
Graham could hardly contain himself with the thought of the true results
of this experiment. And although he was going to use this opportunity to
escape, he almost wished he could stay to see the whole thing through.
