or silly incantations in this class.
As such, I don't expect
many of you to appreciate...
...the subtle science and exact art
that is potion-making.
However, for those select few...
...who possess the predisposition...
...l can teach you
how to bewitch the mind...
...and ensnare the senses.
I can tell you how to bottle fame...
...brew glory and even
put a stopper in death.
Then again, maybe some of you have
come to Hogwarts in...
...possession of abilities so formidable that
you feel confident enough...
