  2. Warts are not very common in our country There ar many cures for a wart. This is a cure I heard of. If you find a black snail without looking for him and rub him to the wart say in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost Amen. then you put the snail on a white torn bush until he withers while the snail withers the wart withers also.
