  1. Sore-Throat: If you boils nettles and then eat them that is a cure for a sore throat.
    Sty: If you had a sty on your eye and if you got twelve gooseberry thorns and bless yourself every morning with them the sty will go away.
    Warts: If you rub a snail to a wart, the snail will cure the wart.
    If you have bad feet and if you walk out in the fields in your bare feet very early in the morning, the dew will cure your bad feet.
