Bayberries burned the first month in the year 



Mean twelve months of happiness, health and cheer.

A bayberrie candle brings luck to the wed. 



When the Sun's in Taurus, in April and May, 



Bayberrie candles keep worry away. 



When Gemini's ruling up in the skies, 



Bayberrie candles aid enterprise. 



When the Sun's in Cancer, bayberries green 



Pleasant journies and visits mean. 



When the Sun's in Leo, a bayberrie light 



Will keep your Love's affection bright. 



When Virgo's ruling, a bayberrie dip 



Will guard 'gainst mishap on sea or ship. 



When Libra's ruling in the Fall, 



A bayberrie candle means luck for all. 



Scorpio's sting will be less strong 



When bayberries burn the evening long. 



When Sagittarius sheds his rays, 



Bayberries candles bring lucky days. 



When the Sun's in Capricornus' sign.
