Cure of Jaundice  [duchas:4657289]

Cure of Jaundice

My grandfather James Gaffney who is now dead used to make the cure of the jaundice.
Soak this plant in water for three nights till the water gets green. Fill it into naggin bottles and take one bottle each morning for three mornings.
If a drop falls to the ground the cure is no use. My aunt Mrs Conway Drumrane, makes it now.
