Entry 4363

Volume 3 · printed page 2616–2617 · Fayetteville, N. Car.

[The wearing of urine (see p.503f.)and bathing or washing hands with it (see p.660f.) 1s fairly common and some of these rites are scattered throughout the text of HooDoO. Here follow a few more:] Ah heard mah grandmothah say dey could take a person's chamber lye an' stop it up an' cause 'em not tuh make watah. Jes' lak ah'd be goin' wit a man an' ah love him. Well, when he'd make his watah - yuh know ah wouldn't do it, but ah hear some people say dat chew could take it while it wuz hot an' wear it.

(Well, how would you wear it?)

Wear it in a sack aroun' yuh waist, near yuh, yuh know.

(Near your own privates?)

Yeah.

(And then what would that do?)

Make him love yuh. [Three widely separated periods following her yuh (see original transcription of MS) show that I stopped recording here, but restarted machine to add as a question the substance of what informant had said: that a menstrual cloth could be soaked with his urine.]

(You just soak this cloth that you wear?)

Uh-huh.
