If anyone ties the eyes of this bird in a cloth, and lay them at the head of one that sleeps too much, they will keep him from sleeping. If any shall carry its eyes when he sails at sea, he shall not fear tempest nor storm, nor any necessity whatever. Also the pilot that carries them shall steer his vessel quietly and without the affliction of a storm. And its heart carried, will make a man beautiful and loved and endeared, and peaceful to all people; though a man fall into the midst of his enemies he shall receive no harm, and he shall neither be hurt by storm nor thunder; but he shall be acceptable and peaceable to all. … And if a fisher[man] carry the belly or the head or the feathers, that fisher[man] shall never be disappointed. And the whole bird roasted in its feathers and eaten, quiets people possessed with the Devil. And set in the house, it averts all sedition and strife.
