- There are various herbs growing on some farms. There are "Dockens", "Red Shank", "Chicken-Weed", "Nettles", "Devil's Spit", and the "Thristle". These spread all over the farm, in a short length of time. The old people had rhyms about the nettle such as -:
"If you shall touch a nettle,
It will sting you for your pains,
Grasp it like a lad of metal,
And as soft as silk remains.
The people also had cures long ago. If anyone burned their foot, some other one of the family would go to a rock and pull "Lady Mantle", "Duileóga bás", "Ribble Grass" "Bryer Leaf", and take it home, and boil it, and put the juice to the burn. The old people had great belief in that cure.
