Some Plant Folklore
If you are looking for a sweet heart you should
*anoint yourself with "marjoram" before sleeping and you will dream of your future spouse.
*put a pot of "basil" on the balcony as a tacit sign that you are ready to receive a suitor.
*wear some "thyme" and it will be sure to bring you a sweetheart.
*smuggle some "borage" into the drink of a prospective husband to give him courage to propose marriage.
*wear some "lovage" to assure your sweetheart's undying devotion.
OK..you've snagged him and your are married......
*plant some "sage"(and hope it grows/doesn't grow) because sage only prospers where the wife rules.
*whoever has a better vocabulary of cuss words let him/her plant the "basil" because it will only grow if cussed out properly.
If you want to keep from growing old:
*"sweet cicely is very good for old people "who are dull and without courage"
*A chinese proberb says "how can a man grow old when he has "sage" in his garden.
