   Some strange cures were supposed to be brought about by applying to a wound what would be called a dirty substance. For instance, a cobweb was placed on a cut to prevent bleeding and a mixture of train oil and sulphur was supposed to cure ringworm.
   Some sensible things were after done such as putting the neck of a hot bottle to a boil to cause the latter to break.
   If a dog gets wounded he immediately licks the wound and cures himself by his own natural instinct.
   It is said if a dog licks a cut on the human being that it cures the same way.
   On the first visit to see a newly born baby it was considered right to spit gently on its face and say
   Bail ó Dhia ar an leanbh
