Now my dear, tell me what ails you. I see some scrapes and bruises, but what caused them?
It was from the Hanging Gardens, Doctor. I slid down a hill which was covered with pine needles.
Pine needles you say? Oh, you're lucky. If it had been our more usual trees around here, the palm trees, they'd have really bit you well. I know it doesn't help to hear that when you're sore all over, but the pine tree is actually part of the cure. A bit of the hair of the dog that bit you, if you will. This little bottle contains pine turpentine. Now I just mix that with some of this fir turpentine, and grind in some of this tamarisk. URGH, that's tough. Ok, now we mix in some daisy and flour of Inninu, mix it all up well and strain it. Did you have something to eat? That's a very fine eatery at the Hanging garden...or perhaps you went there with a boyfriend. I know atmosphere can be everything. There.....ok now we put this strained stuff into a copper pan, and ix in some milk and beer, mixing it in very well. Now we just spread it on the cuts and bandage it asssss best we can. Now you just have to let this bandage stay as it is for the next two or three days, and then change the bandages. If you're not here, you can just wet the bandage down with olive oil. That'll also keep the demons from settling into these wounds. Pretty soon, you'll be well enough to go back to the Hanging Gardens and frolic to your hearts content. Just tell the nurse out there that there is no charge. It was a small enough affair, and we want everybody to hear what a nice place Babylon is. You'll tell them that, won't you? :-)
