Amulets e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. No doubt the great majority of charms and amulets recorded by writers, have merely been selected by reason of casual connection. When any unusual event happened good or bad - the person looked for some cause in his own surroundings; and if he carried, or did, anything unusual, it was naturally connected with the event. Then, no doubt, there was much theorizing from very mixed assumptions, in order to construct a charm for a given purpose. How far human folly can go in such a way anyone may see in the tangible field of medicine by referring to ancient prescriptions.
