Healing Charms

For the Mad Fever

Three stones must be charmed by the hands of  a wise fairy doctor, and cast by her hand, saying as she does so -

"The first stone I cast is for the head in the mad fever; 

the second stone I cast is for the heart in the mad fever; 

the third stone I cast is for the back in the mad fever.

In the name of Bridget, let peace come.  So be it."

 

Note: This is an adaptation from a christianised charm, taken from Lady 'Speranza' Wilde's - Ancient Legends, Mystic Charms and Superstitions of Ireland. published 1888.
