“There was once a woman who had only one daughter.”
There was once a woman who had only one daughter. She was very fond of her and if she ever got sick there would be great confusion. One day the girl got sick and her mother sent for the doctor. The doctor said that the girl had jaundice. Any doctor could not cure her and she was getting worse. There was an old man living in the country and he had a cure for it. He went to the girl's house and he went out into the garden and pulled a herb. He boiled it and gave it to the girl. She drank it and fell asleep. The man she would be cured in ten days. And so she was.
It is a blue flower and grows in nearly every garden. It is shaped like a cup. It is called a cup flower.
