- (continued from previous page)Burn
Saint Patrick's leaf is a good cure for a burn if it is put on the burn inside a fire cloth. It is said that if a person licked a mankeeper there would be a cure for a burn in his tongue.
Jaundice
A cure can be made for jaundice from the lark of a barberry tree. A few branches are cut off the tree. The lark is then peeled off the branches. It is mixed with porter and some water and it is let boil on the fire for a few hours.
