Plantain
Weybroed
Weybroed is mentioned as one of nine sacred herbs. Here is an Ancient Anglo-Saxon remedy using plantain: 'salve for flying venom': 'Take a handful of hammer wort and a handful of maythe (chamomile) and a handful of waybroad and roots of water dock, seek those which will float, and one eggshell full of clean honey, then take clean butter, let him who will help to work up the salve, melt it thrice: let one sing a mass over the worts, before they are put together and the salve is wrought up.
Leaves are cooling and pain-relieving when they have been crushed, you can use them to treat wounds and abrasions and even snake bites. Plantain was also believed to help bring down a fever.
