- (continued from previous page)A cure for a sore mouth is this. If seven boys of a family are born after each other, the seventh boy has a gift and three blows of his breath for nine mornings after each other and he fasting cures it.
A sure cure for chilblains is to go into a house you were never in before and take off your boots and stockings at the fire, and rub the soles of your feet on the hearth and you will leave the chilblains after you.- Collector
