Add to that things like the alliteration of, in this instance, the ‘d’ and ‘t’ sounds, and you get the message Shakespeare is sending. Whereas the iambic pentameter is flexible and imitates everyday speech, rhyming couplets are artificial, and nothing like everyday speech. The way Shakespeare does that is to abandon his usual blank verse iambic pentameter and make the witches speak in rhyming couplets, which produces a weird, mesmeric effect, hence the unreal quality of the lines, ‘double double, toil and trouble/Fire burn and cauldron bubble’. It is almost as though they are talking a different language. Shakespeare distinguishes them from the other characters by making them speak in a distinctive way, different from the way that human beings in the play, and in all his other plays, speak.

Now, climb up to the next wall and unlink the next Cauldron door to face the area’s main boss – a Tideripper.
You need to defeat them to proceed further. Venturing into the other rooms from here, a few Spikesnouts, Burrowers, and Scroungers would be awaiting your arrival. Now, use the crate to make your way to the other node – you need to override it and raise the water level yet again. Once you’ve dealt with them, override the node to raise the water level – ignore the Burrowers that spawn in and continue on. When you come across a triangular doorway, you’ll have to fight a couple of Apex Burrowers. Climb your way through it to reach the next platform. In the back-left of the room that you’ve dropped into, you’ll find some more moving pillars and a wall that you can climb. Now, you need to avoid all the enemies using the water as cover.
