- (continued from previous page)If a smith washes himself in the water he cobles his irons in he will be healthy and strong, because one day the Blessed Virgin was looking for a safety pin and a black smith made one for her, and then she blessed the water in which he cooled the iron. The forge is built of bricks and there is three windows on it.
A blacksmiths life is a very hard one.
