<p> Im minding my own business, wandering around the Internet when I am smacked in the eyes by an interesting blog title “Dwarf begone! Five early medieval ways to rid yourself of dwarfs” ()</p>
<p> I believe it is the worst kept secret that I tend to be easily earwormed, and an even worse kept one that a “song” called Diggy, Diggy hole is particular effective as a weaponised version. (I recommend the Wind Rose version if you need to check it out) I was amused, then, to read: </p>
</DIV>
<DIV data-adtags-visited="true">
<p> “The charm [found among the&nbsp;<em>Lacnunga</em>, instructs one to take seven little wafers like the ones people use to worship; i.e. the Host] and write down the names of seven saints (Maximianus, Malcus, Johannes, Martinianus, Dionysius, Constantinus and Serafion the names of the Christian saints collectively known as the Seven Sleepers)] further instructs that a virgin must hang these wafers around the neck of the patient and that you are to sing a particular song, “ærest on þæt wynstre eare, þænne on þæt swiðre eare, þænne bufan þæs mannes moldan” [first into the left ear, then into the right ear, then on top of the patients head]. This ritual is to be repeated for three days in a row”</p>
<p> So earworm a man to rid him of a dwarf Interesting! Why would a medieval person have wanted to do such a thing? </p>
</DIV>
<p data-adtags-visited="true"> “The Old English word for dwarf,&nbsp;<em>dweorg</em>, could also denote “fever, perhaps high fever with delirium and convulsions” [<em><a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.doe.utoronto.ca/pages/index.html" target="_blank">Dictionary of Old English</a></em>, s.v.&nbsp;<em>dweorg</em>]” </p>
<p data-adtags-visited="true"> The blogpost offers the following as the generally accepted translation of Harley MS 585, fol. 167v </p>
<p data-adtags-visited="true"> Here came a spider-creature crawling in;<br> His web was a harness held in his hand.<br> Stalking, he said that you were his steed.<br> Then he threw his net around your neck,<br> Reining you in. Then they both began<br> To rise from the land, spring from the earth.<br> As they leapt up, their limbs grew cool.<br> Then the spider-dwarfs sister jumped in,<br> Ending it all by swearing these oaths:<br> No hurt should come to harm the sick,<br> No pain to the patient who receives the cure,<br> No harm to the one who sings this charm. </p>
<p data-adtags-visited="true"> Amen. Let it be done. ] (Trans. Williamson 2017, p. 1075) </p>
<p data-adtags-visited="true"> I LOVE the image of a shady “spiderwiht” (awesome word) attempting to ride a man and making him writhe and convulse with fever as a result. </p>
<p data-adtags-visited="true"> I was also amused at the idea of using a skull fragment to inscribe the runes “DEAD IS DWERG” on as a talisman against dwarves, but, you know, I love my household, Im sure I would never resort to such things..<br>
