Scorn the food and shun the drink, For faerie food and faerie tricks, Will snare the tongue and trap the sick. Sprinkle salt from human lands Sprinkle salt with human hands. Meat loves salt and salt loves meat, I pray the lord my soul to keep. So sprinkle salt, else restless sleep, So sprinkle salt, else endless weep.   Traditional folk rhyme, collected by J Ritson in Fairy Tales and Folk Songs, Now First Collected, with Two Dissertations on Pygmies and on Fairies
