Note 10 — Chapter XII · DIVINATION AND MAGIC

Reading edition

In the special case in which the evil is produced by saying that a man is looking well or is well dressed, the utkòren have a different method. They take a piece of the root called kabudri,10 and a plant called kwagal, and squeeze the juice of both into a vessel. An incantation is said, the same as, or similar to, that already given, while the utkòren strokes the sick man with the corner of his cloak. After the incantation the sufferer drinks the juice.
