The Red Toad that lurks in the briars and brambles is full of sorceries. There is a little bone on the left-hand side which if bound to a man stirs up the greatest lust. Legend states that should it be placed in cold water, it will make said water hot. This water fed to dogs, will make them serviceable and procure their loyalty. The right-side bone makes hot water cold and so long as it remains no heat will warm the water. Bound to the sick in the skin of a snake it cures quartans.
