Five black candles for the larger circle,
five more for the small
Each and everyone upon a twisted ironstick,
The floor adorned with runes of chalk
and with a censer in its midst.

A chant for the elder was the spark of creation
Making way, the ancient pray
Circling quickly round the center of attraction
a force to wheel the spell to seal
a pact with a power of the past

"Gather now whirling winds of might,
Water, fire, darkness and light
Silence and sound, unite and surround,
Invisible presence step into sight

Through demon's gate walk you beast of night
in defiance of all gods of light
To serve the caster, your lord and master,
I demand your presence, obey this rite"

The candles flicker of sudden breeze
and by the censer it begins to increase
The smoke forms fear as the demons appear
Too many demons, the spell cannot seize
