There was a short, strange silence. The air was full of magic. Then slowly, the broom stood up straight. Its bristles divided into legs, two arms sprouted from the handle. Stiffly and jerkily it began to walk. The apprentice was overjoyed and, secretly, a little frightened. He put a bucket in the broom's hand, and off it went to the river. Soon the broom was back with a bucketful of water, which it tipped into the tank. And off it went to the river again. Backwards and forwards, backwards and forwards, the broom trotted, and bucketful of water after bucketful of water was poured into the cistern until it was nearly full. There was enogh water now; it was time for the apprentice to stop the broom. (from page 5/6, The Sorcerer's Apprentice By John Hosier)
