- Some people say that if you have a wart on your finger dip your fingers in a hole in a tree, three times and it will cure it. One must not go looking for a hole in a tree. It must be found by chance. A cure for a sty in ones eye.
If a person has a sty in his eye let him get a thorn off a gooseberry bush and prod the sty nine times, counting nine in his own mind between each prod. This was told to my mother by a tramp. Told by Alfred Stranney. - Transcription guide »You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
