Love Spell

I don't remember where I first heard this one, but it's great for telling at pagan events:
A young man fell madly in love with a young woman he had met, and he just couldn't get her out of his mind, but she didn't seem to notice him, so he went to visit the local witches for help. After hearing his problem, the witches confered with one another, then returned to him with a bottle of aspirin.

The elder witch informed him, "You must go to your beloved's home at midnight, and in her yard, dig thirteen holes. Then place one aspirin in each of the thirteen holes, and cover them up with dirt. In one month's time she will love you, and in a year you will marry."

Well, the young man did as he was told, and sure enough, the young woman fell in love with him. A year later they were married, and the young man returned to thank the witches.

"I'm the happiest man alive! But I have to ask....why did that work?"

The Eldest witch stood up tall and straight while the other witches gathered 'round, and she shared the secret wisdom of their Work, "If you must know: Nothing says lovin' like somethin' from the Coven, and pills buried say it best!"
