  1. II
    If you have warts and you wash them in egg-water you would have them no longer. Rub a burned sod on cow-pock and it will go. Burn a sally-rod into ashes and mix butter through it and that is a cure for a boil. If you have wild-fire write your name around it with a burned stick before you eat your breakfast. There is supposed to be a cure for ringworm in a seventh son and there was such in Kivneen's in Cloonmore, in Waldron's in Cloonmore and in Kinnella's in Cullane.
