Frigebed
Hal Frige Módor---myge Wódnes,
lé of mid þín léodum---léohtmód bist,
rúne hieldst---rúmheort bist,
mearum ond máðmum---meduradenne,
for gesiðmægen--- symle aghwar;
eodor æþelinga---arest gegretest,
forman fulle---to Fréan hond,
ricence geracst--- ond rad witst mann,
Frige eallcnáwestre ---fræfel gyden,
Esageardes cwén--- cwémlic hláfidge.
Biergst byrdum--- bearn weardst,
Agnar Gárgiþes sunu ---setede cyning,
Wódne tacede---wealdend wæs.

Frige's Prayer
Hail Frigga Mother--- Woden's mirth,
dear to the folk ---you are light hearted,
hold secrets---and generous are,
with mares and treasures---when the mead is dealt out,
for warriors---at symbel together;
always the princes---you greet first,
first the full---to the lord's hand,
greatness you attain---and for Man counsel know,
Frigga all knowing ---cunning goddess,
Asgard's queen ---pleasing lady.
You guard births---ward the young,
Agnar, Gearöth's son---you sat as King,
Woden you showed---who the ruler was.
(lines 2-7 based on Maxims II)

For the Water-Elf Disease

If anyone has the water-elf disease, then his nails will be wan and his eyes will water and he will wish to look down. Give him this medicine: Carline thistle, hassock, the lower part of iris, yewberry, lupine, elecampne, marshmallow head, fen-mint, dill, lily, cock's-spur grass, pennyroyal, horehound, dock, elder, earthgall, wormwood, strawberry leaves, comfrey; mix with ale, add holy water to it, then sing this charm three times:

I have bound the injuries with the best battle-bonds,
So the injuries neither burn nor burst,
Nor spread, nor go septic,
Nor itch; nor the wounds grow,
Nor the abcess inflame; but he holds his health himself,
Nor ache more than earth aches your ear.

Sing this many times:

Earth forbear you with all her might and main.

These charms can be sung on a wound.
Gif mon biþ on wæterælfadle, þonne beoþ him þa hand-
næglas wonne and þa eagan tearige and wile locian niþer.
Do him þis to læcedome: eoforþrote, cassuc, fone nioþo-
weard, eowberge, elehtre, eolone, merscmealwan crop,
fenminte, dile, lilie, attorlaþe, polleie, marubie, docce, ellen,
felterre, wermod, streawbergean leaf, consolde; ofgeot mid
fealaþ, do hæligwæter to, sing þis gealdor ofer þriwa:
Ic benne awrat betest beadowræda,
swa benne ne burnon, ne burston,
ne fundian, ne feologan,
ne hoppettan, ne wund waxsian,
ne dolh diopian; ac him self healde halewæge,
ne ace þe þon ma, þe eorþan on eare ace.


Sing þis manegum siþum:

Eorþe þe onbere eallum hire mihtum and mægenum.

þas galdor mon mæg singan on wunde.
