excerpt from the swedish history musuems text about a 17th century icelandic book of magic
“Om du till exempel vill framkalla kräkning hos en ovän, ristar du
trolltecken på ost eller fisk och ger till den du vill driva med “då
skall han icke hava nytta av det som han äter den dagen”.
Om inte detta är straff nog kan du sedan använda dig av fjärt-runor.
Skriv då trollstavar med ditt eget blod på ett vitt kalvskinn och säg:
”jag ristar dig åtta assrunor, nio naudrunor, tretton thursrunor vilka
må plåga din buk med svår väderspänning och … våldsamt fjärtande … måtte
aldrig ditt fjärtande upphöra varken dag eller natt…” “
English Translation (by me)
Say that you want to curse your enemy to vomit, then you are adviced to carve magical symbols on cheese or fish. Then you shall give these food items to the one you want to mock. the result, according to the book is “that they will be unable to gain nourishment nor pleasure from any meals for a day”.
but, if this is not enough punishment for your enemy you can step up your game, and use farting – runes. write magical runes with your own blod on the white pelt of a calf and say: “I am carving you with eight a – runes, nine n – runes, thirteen th – runes. may they torture your stomach with a severe feeling of bloating and aggersive farting. may your farting last forever, yes day and night you shall fart, forevermore!”
