Up and down, and far and wide,

On the left, and on the right,

Witch and wizard massed together,

Scour the moor and sweep the heather,

Bravely on Walpurgis night!

[They alight.

Mephistopheles.

What a thronging, and jolting, and rolling, and rattling!

What a whizzing, and whirling, and jostling, and battling!

What a sparkling, and blazing, and stinking, and burning!
