- Rub cold tea up to a sore eye, it would be a good cure. If a person had a stye in their eye, to rub Easter water nine times every morning for nine mornings is a good cure. Another cure for a stye is to rub your spit to your eye, fasting.
If a person had a burn on her hands or face, olive oil and breadsoda is a good cure.
Long, long ago if a person had a cut in her hand she would get a cob-web and put it up to the cut.- Collector
