Witch Stone

At Forres is a large round stone,

A relic of the days by gone;

For here there were two witches burned,

Underneath their ashes urned.

A man with veneration small

Broke stone and built it in his wall,

But the authorities of town

Made him full quickly pull them down.

Replace each piece, and it environ

With large bars of good Scottish iron;

May fine old town thrive and adorn

The beauteous banks of the Findhorn.
