1920. ] R. O. WinstEDT: Malay Charms. 135 
Let her be mad after me night and day! 
May the sperm and seed that is mine be efficacious 
To go and bring the life and soul and gall and body 
of her 
Here to play and sport in my lap, 
To bow and give herself to me, 
As Zulaikha gave herself to Joseph. 
So may my charm work and avail 
By grace of the invocation, “ There is no God but 
Allah and Muhammad is His Apostle. 
(5) Sa-bagat lagi hikmat kundang pertmpuan. Pada ma- 
lam buat tiga kali, pada suatu waktu bacha tiga kalt ; jikalau 
boleh, buat pagi-pagi dan téngah hari juga :— 
Bism? llahi’r-Rahmani’r-Rahimi ! ~ 
Hat sahabat-ku, Jin Jewa s¢mbawarna, 
Dan Jin Hawa méngérna, 
Yang bérgélang t¢ mbaga, 
Yang bérbaju bési / 
Minta pérgi dato’ ka-pada si-anu, 
Masok dalam pérut-nya, 
Rosakkan mata hati jantong iman si-anu, 
Chékekkan leher-nya, 
Jangan di-béri makan, 
Jangan di-bért minum : 
Siang malam gila bérahi ka-pada aku ; 
Suroh ményémbah ménytrahkan diri- “nya. 
** Bismt *llaht’’—aku makan tuboh badan (si-anu) : 
es t-Rahmani' —aku lan matahati jantong (si- 
nu 
ep Rahimi?’ "aku minum otak bénak darah roh 
stmangat (si-anu). 
Pérgi-lah tngkau cmbilhan al itu 
Bawa datang ka-pada aku ; 
Bérkat doa, “ La tlaha 2 "lah, Muhammad Rasul- 
w’ llah.”’ 
Another charm to win a woman’s affections. 
Recite it three times at night, thrice each time; and if 
possible, at dawn and noon. 
In ee name of God, the Merciful, the Compassion- 
aie of golden life ! 
Genie of bright desire! 
angles of brass and coat of steel! 
Go enter the affections of my beloved, 
ucing her eyes, her heart, her virtue! 
Strangle her that she may neither eat nor drink, 
Being madly in love with me by day and by night.
