HYMN XXV
A charm to remove pustules or scrofulous swellings (apachitas)
1May all the five-and-fifty which meet round the tendons of the
neck.
Depart and vanish hence away like plaguing insects buzz and
hum!
2Those seventy-and-seven which meet round the upper vertebrae,
Let them all vanish hence away like plaguing insects' buzz and
hum!
3Those nine-and-ninety which, combined, attack the shoulder
round about,
Let them all vanish hence away like plaguing insects' buzz and
hum!
