This song is for the Handmaiden to sing as she sweeps the circle. Generally, she will sweep one to three times around the circle, depending on the level of cleaning needed.

As I sweep around the room, 

Dust and dirt be leaving.

Aches and sorrows lying there

Vanish with my tune:

O’ la, to and fro’

Love and magick weaving.

O’ la, to and fro’

Underneath the moon.

‘Round the room I swing my broom.

As I sweep, I’m dreaming.

One day I will be the Queen

Thee for all to see.

O’ la, to and fro’

All will soon be gleaming!

O’ la, to and fro’:

Hear my melody.
