Janice Manning - The Kolbrin Bible: 21st Century Master Edition

willow, the compassionate ash, the

protective yew, the happy birch, the companionable holly, the lively hawthorn, the mystic hazel, the sedate pine, the wish-granting sallow, the healing heather, the age-consoling alder, the youth-giving waywithy, the generous broom, the helpful furze, the spirit-strengthening beech, the soothing windrake, the laughing aspen, the gentle junapah, the reliable wayfaringbeam, the cunning hornbeam, the flighty gadberry, the ominous

dogwood, the jumping buck-thorn, the light-hearted maple, the direful slaethorn, the angry parbeam, the wilful kartakbush, the haunted banbeam,

the frightened witchbeam. BRT:9:17 They who are at one with the trees understand the nature of the life within them and make much of such things. There is a mystery here to be worked by those with understanding, but to others, it will be meaningless.

BRT:9:18 These are the useful herbs to be found in field, forest and wayside in the days gone by: Wolfbane (which guards against wolves and dogs), barroweed (which grows only near the dead), harwort, witchweed, tinkerbells, wayweed, skullcap, featherflowers (which cure the stone), blackberry, sundew, deadly dick, celandine (which cure the piles), windweed, moonflower (which works a spell), witchhead (called blackspear), asproot, drudbalm (which brings sleep),witchbane (which is put above the door),

hawflowers, ellenberry, wimberry, dradsweet, elfeyc, fairyfern, witchwhispers, quickenbush, sowerseed (which purges), bardberry (for

lovers), amarinth (it never fades), windflower, goolflower, weggrig, blowderbud (which heals all wounds), levenshade, layganleaf, hokanmil, rillweed, boonberry, hatherswed (which women use), esislip, fullerswort, withrinweed (which makes blue dye), canweed (which quiets the heart), mayslip, kodecreeper, slanlus, sewd, (which cures men of madness), mothan (which only grows on cliffs), arkiesene, dafblowder (which cures stomach sickness), malbrig, maisbel (which heals the stomach), bormowed (which soothes burns), selerweed (which gives visions), tianwed (which heals the skin), kaincop (which makes a brew), cowslip, waybroad, satyrion (which

overcomes impotency), dwail, corncockles (which men call tares), dockumdick (which gives men virility and only grows under the shivertree).

BRT:9:19 These things serve well, but some are lost to the knowledge of men: Herb beer, made of yarrow and riversweet, soothes the spirits of men. Red clover cures the small cancer, if the suffering one be a man of self-

control. The herb called 'mothan' is drunk with milk at childbirth. BRT:9:20 Sickness is first a malady of the mind.
