St. Hildegard on Wormwood Cream:
"Crush wormwood in a mortar to extract its juice (…) prepare (…) an ointment. Warm it by the fire and rub it on a person tormented by such severe arthritis that their limbs feel as though they might break. Apply it where they feel pain, and the patient will recover."
— From Physica by St. Hildegard of Bingen
