Green-Sickness

[kotori]

Green-sickness: A disease incident to virgins.
--Noah Webster's Compendious Dictionary of the English Language, 1806

For the green-sickness, or for a love-sick maid, take earthworms, open them, wash them clean, dry them in an oven and beat them to a powder. Give thereof two spoonfulls in white wine in the morning.
--Fairfax Household Book, Anonymous, c. early 19th century.

Wouldn't it just be easier to initiate them. (Wink, wink, nod, nod, know-what-I-mean?) Now, where to find a love-sick maid?

 

[Merelan]

I must agree with you. Worms in wine? Isn't it the tequila that has the wine?

After they eat that, or drink.... who will want them? Unless they brush their teeth.

Not sure you will find many love sick virgins here though, unless Todd is around somewhere.

Cure for Green-Sickness:

Plane ticket to the Emerald Isle, followed by a pint of Guinness.

Have a Happy St Paddy's Day tomorrow, Kotori!

Thanx, Cherry!

Cure for Green-Sickness:
Plane ticket to the Emerald Isle, followed by a pint of Guinness.
Have a Happy St Paddy's Day tomorrow, Kotori!

Beanachtai a Fheile Phádraig duit, ar chor ar bith.

But I'm afraid perhaps too many pints could be the "cure" for the virginity. Just a guess, based on my birthday (18 Dec--you do the math)!
