Kindle Notes & Highlights
Love begins in curious ways, in daylight or in darkness, when you are in search of it or when you least expect to find it. You may think it is one thing, when in fact it is something else entirely: infatuation, loneliness, seduction.
Sage, for headache. Summer savory, for colic. Green wormwood for wounds, mix with vinegar or rum, then apply. Hyssop, for the lungs. Colt’s foot and flaxseed, for coughing. Motherwort, to quiet the nerves. Sweet balm tea, for fever. Horseradish, mixed with warm vinegar for aches in the feet. Mallows, steeped in milk for dysentery. Savory, to give good fortune. Parsley, to see the future and make wise choices.
