I am very grateful for creative people in the world. With a few adjustments, this hollowed Book will make a wonderful medicine-chest-of-sorts or a first aid kit.

I asked the maker to leave the drawers unlabeled for me, and to change the design on the front. Myself, I will not use cork-stoppered bottles. For safety in portability, I prefer screwtops or screwtop-droppers. Perhaps on the inside cover I will affix a booklet with use and dosage instructions.

If I like how this one comes out, I will order another one for magical dusts (like Luck Powder, Hotfoot Powder, Pollard Dust, Cosmic Dust, Witches' Salt, Three Elements Powder) and liquids (the Dreaming True Potion, the Commanding Elixir).

The Thirteen Rules of the Potion-Maker's Art
The original is written in green ink on parchment.

This is another example of a beautiful script. Although it is not one that is traditionally used by Witches, I think it could and should be! It is more appropriate for lists or numbered items, inasmuch as it is read downward. Each vertical line is a sentence.

The Thirteen Rules of the Potion-Maker's Art are a set of precepts taught to herbalists to remind them of certain fundamental principles that should always be kept in mind.

*** Blessed be to those who serve the Great Mother and the Horned Father.
