In the dark, restricted corner of the library Find yourself ‘Moste Potente Potions’ Everything you need you will find in there The most potent potions Three measures of fluxweed Two bundles of knotgrass Stir thrice, clockwise Wave your wand Now let it brew Not yet, it’s far from over Proceed with four leeches Two measures of crushed lacewings Thirty seconds on low heat Wave your wand Now let it brew Three measures of boomslang skin One crushed bicorn horn Twenty seconds on high heat Wave your wand Now let it brew One scoop of lacewings Stir thrice, anti-clockwise The dark, muddy potion Bubbling up, slowly And now, the final ingredient A piece of the person You wish to become Now notice as it takes the color And taste of his essence Wave your wand Now let it brew For a month, no less You have what you need Now drink up lads! In one hour, however You will transform back Make sure the job is done And in some other’s skin And should the need arise You’ll know what to do In the dark, restricted corner of the library Find yourself ‘Moste Potente Potions’ Everything you need you will find in there The most potent potions
