    after November's night that the fairies would fill your bed with thorns that night.
    It is said that there was a cure for anyone who was blind in the field called, "Gordha Daill". It is said that if anyone who was blind put the herb that grew in this garden on his eyes that his sight would be restored. This plant is not growing in this garden now.
