Bide ye Wiccan laws ye must,
In perfect love and perfect trust.
Ye must live and let live,
Fairly take and fairly give.
Cast the circle thrice about,
To keep all evil spirits out.
To bind the spell well every time,
Let the spell be spoke in rhyme.
Soft of eye light of touch,
Speak ye little, listen much.
Deosil go by the waxing moon,
chanting out ye baneful rune.
Widdershins go by the waning moon,
Chanting out ye baneful tune.
When the Lady's moon is new,
Kiss the hand to Her's times two.
When the moon rides at Her peak,
Then the hearts desire seek.
Heed toe's North wind mighty gale,
Lock the door and trim the sail.
When the wind comes from the South,
Love will kiss thee on the mouth.
When the moor blows from the West,
Departed spirits have no rest.
When the wind blows from the East,
Expect the new and set the feast.
Nine woods in the cauldron go,
Burn them quick and burn them slow.
Elder be the Lady's tree,
Burn it not or cursed ye'll be.
When the wheels begin to turn,
Let the Beltane fires burn.
When the wheel turns to Yule,
Light the log and the Horned One rule.
Heed ye flower, bush and bee,
By the Lady, Blessed Be.
When the rippling waters go,
Cast a stone, the truth to know.
When ye have and hold a need,
Harken not to others greed.
With a fool no seasons spend,
Or be counted as his friends.
Merry meet and merry part,
Bright the cheeks and warm the heart.
Mind the Threefold law ye should,
Three times bad and three times good.
When misfortune is anow,
Wear the blue star on thy brow.
True in love ye must be,
Lest thy love be false to thee.
These words the Wiccan rede fulfill,
An ye harm none, Do as ye will.
