When poisoning with black henbane or hemlock you should immediately drink plenty of wormwood with cumin boiled in wine or, if wine is not at hand, with water. This drink is also very healing in case of meat poisoning. With prolonged fever, you should drink wormwood tea with caution. Plenty of wormwood at night soaked in strong brandy, and in the morning soaking a cloth, and placing it warm on the child's lap, is good for removing worms, but the process must be repeated often. Wormwood put in brandy is a useful means of massaging pain and spasms in the stomach or in case of painful belching. After the massage put a heated woolen fabric on the spot. Special tincture of wormwood as a means for the stomach: 10 g of wormwood, 4 g of well-crushed calamus rhizome, 4 g of well-crushed gentian root and 4 g of chopped orange bark soaked for 8 days in 200 g of strong wine or brandy and filter it afterwards. For all stomach ailments take 15 to 20 drops with the same drops of water 2 to 4 times a day
