The Black Witch of Hamadey can take you, yes YOU to places you'd never dream. A steal of an item, the "Flying Ointment" charm could give you a bird's eye view of the great, wide world. Specifically, the Black Witch will give you the powers to fly high in the sky. For any of you skeptics, the spell begins with "The fat of yoong children, and seeth it with water in a brasen vessell, reseruing the thickest of that which remaineth boiled in the bottome, which they laie up and keepe, untill occasion serueth to use itI"* Sorry, in order to actually fly, a few more secret items must be added to make you fly, so you'll have to win the auction if you want to kiss the sky. WARNING: this product uses aconite, a very dangerous poison that could give you a heart attack. We, the Ye Olde Webmasters, hold no responsibility to any after effects or its actual productivity. *Tindall, Gillian A Handbook on Witches. New York: Atheneum, 1969, p. 109
