In the first book of Moses, the second chapter, verses 11, 12, 13, you will find them. You will find this effective.\nANOTHER WAY TO STOP BLOOD.\nAs soon as you cut yourself you must say: \"Blessed wound, blessed hour, blessed be the day on which Jesus Christ was born, in the name + + + Amen.\nANOTHER SIMILAR PRESCRIPTION.\nBreathe three times upon the patient, and say the Lord's Prayer three times until the words, \"upon the earth,\" and the bleeding will be stopped.\nANOTHER STILL MORE CERTAIN WAY TO STOP BLEEDING.\nIf the bleeding will not stop, or if a vein has been cut, then lay the following on it, and it will stop that hour. Yet if any one does not believe this, let him write the letters upon a knife and stab an irrational animal, and he will not be able to draw blood. And whosoever carries this about him will be safe against all his enemies.\nI. m. I. K. I. B. I. P. a. x. v. ss. Ss. vas,\n I. P. O. unay Lit.
