"Captain Kyd - Volume II" from Joseph Holt Ingraham. American author (18009-1860).
This is the conclusion of story of the notorious Captain Kyd -- a pirate -- and worse. But also a man with a tender heart. . . . Like a crew of demons, yelling and shouting menaces of death, mingled with horrible execrations and oaths of vengeance for their slaughtered comrades, they obeyed the energetic and sanguinary orders of their chief. The witch chanted -- "Turn the spindle! Mortal asks A web of proof From charmed woof!" "The pledge, the pledge?" replied the wizard. "Body and soul To "his" control, The pledge, the pledge!" "A bleeding lock Of the victim's hair Given to earth, sea, Sky, and air, The seal, the seal!"
