Leechdom

That shall be a leechdom for her, for the one who there combeth her head.

Egina, the English practitioner of the time would make a collection of receipts, prescriptions, or leechdoms for the various injuries, wounds, and common maladies, substituting the native herbs when foreign drugs were not to be had.

A leechdom if thou will that an ill swelling and the venomous humour should burst out.

The leechdom was for equal quantities of betony, celandine and yarrow juice mixed together, and then applied to the eyes.
