I remember this scene in a Shakespeare play with some witches stirring up these weird ingredients in a big pot of fire, saying something like double, double toil and trouble. I’m trying to figure which play that was in, exactly where in the play that scene appeared, and some of the ingredients the witches used. I think one of the ingredients was a toad but I can’t remember the rest.

Hi Loretta,

This scene was in MacBeth. The link below will help you. It has the actual scene so it lists all the ingredients. This scene appeared in Act IV, Scene 1 of the play. Please let me know if you have any further questions.
