Mayhap you be needing the appripriate apostrophes and commas like so:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Adder's fork and blindworm's sting,
Lizard's leg and owlet's wing


then again, I haven't got the card so I can't test it.

I didn't use any puctuation at all, but you *do* have to do a carriage return after the first line. For example, don't just copy and paste it into the box. That's the only difference I made today, and it worked.

First copy this line:

adders fork and blindworms sting

Paste it into the box (deleting any excess spaces at the end) and press return
Now copy this line:

lizards leg and owlets wing

Paste that under the first one (once again removing any extra spaces)

This really confused me, all of the Theban scripts that I can see use two of the same letter for W, yet this only uses 1, which should be v or u, not w? What gives?

You need to type

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
adders fork and blindworms sting


Then press the enter/return key on the keyboard then type

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
lizards leg and owlets wing


That should sort it for you.

Just out of curiosity, has anyone played In Memoriam? (Missing: Since January in the states) Theban script popped up in one puzzle there, too. I never thought I'd run into it again.

Wow, I guess I am the only one here who managed to translate this straight away... being Pagan myself... This text is indeed used a lot in spell craft and in my experience (as I do myself) writting observations and spells in our Book of Shadows Razz Wish I was here earlier to help you all sooner!!!

don't do what i did

I can't believe how foolishly stupid I am.
I kept getting it wrong, and came here to make sure I had the correct answer. I did have the same answer.
I have managed to lock myself out twice. Each time I was wrong, I would come here and double check again and again.
Well, now...
after the 8th timeI managed to see my mistake.
I had:
Blindworts
not
Blindworm

Smack me please!
