- The herbs that are most harmful are the prasha, and the nettle they destroy the crops. The nettle grows mostly in bad land, and spreads round the place.
The dandeloine grows in rich land, and it cures scabs and other things. There is also another one which is called the ragweed and it cures sore lips. Garlic cures a person that would have a cough, and bronchitis. It also prevents cattle from getting the black leg. There are several herbs that grow in the land and they cure outside cancer.
The deaca leaf is used sometimes in the Summer as food for pigs. None of these are used for dying purposes.
