Ready for some #WednesdayWisdom? When life gives you Lunacy... "Boil Juice of Ground-ivy with sweet Oil and white Wine into an Ointment. Shave the Head, anoint it therewith, and chafe it in warm, every other Day for three Weeks. Bruise also the Leaves and bind them on the Head, and give three Spoonfuls of the Juice warm every Morning--This generally cures Melancholy."
