Styes and Boils
Get nine throws off the gooseberry bush, and prick the stray with each of them once for nine mornings and on the ninth morning it is supposed to be gone.
Put your mother's wedding ring around it, and say ten Hail Marry's, and four Our Fathers . Bathe it in cold tea every morning. Get ten thorns off a gooseberry bush, and throw one away, and then make the sign of the cross on the stye nine times for nine mornings. Hold your eye over your tea before you put sugar or milk into it.
