John Wellington Wells, the protagonist of an early Gilbert & Sullivan
play The Sorcerer, sings:
Oh! my name is John Wellington Wells,
I'm a dealer in magic and spells,
In blessings and curses
And ever-filled purses,
In prophecies, witches, and knells.
If you want a proud foe to "make tracks"--
If you'd melt a rich uncle in wax--
You've but to look in
On the resident Djinn,
Number seventy, Simmery Axe....
Barring tautology,
In demonology,
'Lectro-biology,
Mystic nosology,
Spirit philology,
High-class astrology,
Such is his knowledge, he
Isn't the man to require an apology!
G & S fans will be pleased - and HP fans may be interested - in
learning that the talented Mr. Wells maintains a website advertising
his goods and services. His prices seem competitive with the Diagon
Alley competition.
