Entry 3812
Go an' git a bran'-new brick dat has nevah been used, an' yo' put it in yore fire an' git it red-hot. While dat brick is heatin', he make him a pep- pah tea wid dese pod peppahs. Git nine pods an' make a peppah tea of it, an' he po' 'bout a ten-cent drink of likkah into dis an' drink it hot. Well, when he drink it hot, he urin- ate on dat brick - take it out an' urinate on dat brick, an' dat'll bring it back. Dat's one way. (That will restore his nature, his courage that has been tied up by some woman.) Yes.
Entry 3816
Take a bran'-new knife an' po' - make urinate [urinate] down dat knife- blade evah mawnin' fo' nine mawnin's an' wash 'isself wit whut chew call dis stuff dey use in prison. (Saltpeter?) Saltpetah. Take dat an' wash it [his tool] an' throw it to de sundown. Take dat an' wash it an' throw it to de sundown. If he done wash 'isself off an' throw it de way de sun goes down, he kin git ovah [cure] it dataway - git along to where he kin handle anybody he want to.
(That will take off this spell that took his nature away.)
Dat'll take off dat.
(He did that before sunrise did you say?)
[He did not give the time, that is what I wanted to learn.]
Aftah sun risin' an' jes' as de sun liable to set, see yo' put it in dere den, den it [ailment] will go away den. Yo' have to do dat fo' nine evenin's an' po' dat watah down dat knife fo' nine mawnin's.
(You urinate down the knife in the morning, and you throw it away at night?)
Yeah, yo' washes wit dat saltpetah in de aftahnoon. [For the general reader may I add:. The peter part of saltpeter, being one of the many names for the penis, has magic value in this impotence cure; so also has the magic salt portion of saltpeter.]
Entry 3993
Dey tell me yo' take an' pee in yore han's an' rub yore han's, see; an' put chure han's on de dice. Go an' pee in yore han's an' leave yore han's back; walk on, see. An' den yo' kin very well put chure han's between yore laig an' yo' snatch up right quick, an' yo' reach back ag'in - three times, see, an' shoot.
(How do you mean reach back 3 times?)
Reach back heah three times [demonstrates].
(You draw your hand three times between your legs.)
An' roll de dice in yore han's lak dis, see; an' chunk 'em out. Yo'll come lucky an' yo'll win.
(That is to give you luck in gambling.)
Entry 3994
( Git up soon in de mawnin', pee in yore han', an' if yo' gotta do [some- thing?], put dat stool in yore han' an' rub it [in your hand], go 'head an' go tuh de bossman, an' he'll give yo' a job. [My something? shows a lacuna of 10 periods left by transcriber for a colloquial expression meaning excrement, which I also did not fill in years ago. The word stool in the text indicates what the omission was. For- tunately there is at least one, if not two rites in HooDoO using excrement in the hand when asking for a job! Most amazing of all, we have one of the finest things in HOODOO, the incredible excrement rite of love - see 822, p.284f.]
Entry 3995
Ah have tried it workin' on mah han's in dealin' wit de cards an' ah have been prosperous. (You found it lucky?) Absolutely.
(You mean peeing on your hands?)
Yeah. (Well, now that's something I asked and you thought you didn't know.)
Entry 3997
The same old gentlemen what I just spoke to you about [a root doctor near Columbus, Miss.], his method of bringing a person to you mediately [was] by taking your urinate. Take a bran'-new piece of red flannen, urinate on it and rub it through your hands, sit down and write a letter to the person to come at once. They will do so.

They kin git 9 tenpenny nails an' they urinate on 'em. Let 'em stand 3 days an' go on the north turn [see later] an' throw it under the house an you'll move. [This is my penciled transcription of the original made a few years after the recording. In that greceding bracket were the words end over side, indicating I knew this prepara- doaa was thrown under the north side of the house; yet a pencil line at the bot- to of the page adds sounds like "tum." My pencil also added the words profes- sional and excellent, reminding me that her cylinders had been missed by my transcriber and later shaved! This also happened to another unique woman at Memphis and a remarkable man in Jacksonville, Fla.]
Entry 9927
[To] stop a man from makin' watah, yo' could take dat frog an' split 'im open an' fill 'im up fulla salt an' peppah; an' pull 'im back tuhgethah an' hang 'im up. Split 'im open 'live. Why dey couldn't make watah 'long as dat wuz done. (Do they do anything with the person's water at all?) No sir. [Since the victim's urine is not used on the frog or in any way here, magic power is one of intention verbally unexpressed.]
Entry 10624
Get a Adam-and-Eve root.
(Get an Adam-and-Eve root.)
And fix it and write their name and tie it up in it.
(Write their name on a piece of paper?)
Uh huh, and put it in there with this Adam-and-Eve root, and 'cose, you urinate on that for nine mornings, if you wants a man. You get him that way. (I see. Well, now, what do you wrap that up in?) In a handkerchief. (I see. And you urinate on it.) You be more successful in tying it up in a green handkerchief. (I see. And you tie it up and urinate on it for nine mornings. Then what do you do with the handkerchief?) Just keep it.
(Oh, you keep it and then you'll get the man. I see.)
