- Remedy for wounds and cuts but also for inside wounds, you need to swallow the size of a pea with some nice wine 2 or 3 times a day when you feel pain
- 1 pound of olive oil
- 1 ounce of petroleum oil
- 1 ounce of lavender oil
- 2 ounces of terebenthine of Venise (resin from a tree cannot be mixed with water but can be mixed with petrol)
- 2 ounces of Rose water
- ½ ounce of new yellow wax
- 1 ounce of Brasil wood ground
- Note that we need a brand new varnished clay pot that can contain 2 pots
- Each pound is 16 ounces
- The rose water is to dissolve* the terebenthine, first you need to put in the pot the olive oil, the wax and the brasil wood ground and leave it simmer, then pour the terebenthine, and put the petroleum and lavender oils, leave it boil a bit all together then pass the whole thing through a cloth.
- Remedy for dysentery
- A jar of milk straight from the cow, add some cinnamon and a sheet of “post paper”(the kind of paper they used to write letters), boil the whole thing until you get half of the liquid evaporated and the paper is dissolved, the sick person must drink one spoon every hour and if he/she is very sick one spoon every half an hour.
- Remedy for the chest and asthma
- Take 2 handful of “liaisse” (could not find a translation or what it is in french… I’ll try to find out later, I am actually very interested on that one) and cut them, cook them with 3 pints of water until half evaporates, pour the liquid through a cloth and pour it into a new saucepan, add 3 cartons or a pound of white honey, bring it to the boil and get rid of the foam well, we’ll take a glass (glass wine) of this morning and evening and more often if we want, this remedy is good for kids and adults
- Remedy for “resiselle” (Varicella)??
- You have to take the blue paper in which you put the sugar, rub the paper with chalk then place it where the disease is
- Remedy for eye pain
- Keep the water from the snow that falls in march and put in that water flowers from the seeds named “percettes”* let it *absorb?* in the sun and use the water to put on your eyes.
- (this part is a bit confusing, the writer understand him/herself but it is confusing)
- * Percette: I think it is the flower Perce-neige, a flower that can pierce through snow. "percette" could be a familiar name
