 | | Okay, from page 12: 1846 edition by Hohman A Remedy to Catch Fish Take some kernels of roses, mustard seed, and the leg of a minx, then tie to a line, and be sure all the fish will gather. |
 | | Hohman's translation is painfully literal, but he specifies the leg of a mink (minx), not the foot of a weasel (they are related to be sure, but different species), and he says to tie the charm to a line, not to place it in a net. |
 | | Since Hohman says that the root in question will "clear the lungs of all bad stuff," it seems that his original translation of his own writing, crude as it was, was more accurate. |
