How Nanse, Bessie's mother, went to the doctor for a pill, which she got, with directions how to use it - How it had the desired effect, by being put into Davie's pouch by Bess at a wedding, which recovered Davie's love to Bess, and they were married. Likewise, how Nanse, being a widow, went to the doctor with two fat hens to return thanks for the pill, and how she wanted to buy a pill for herself, to gain a neebour [sic] carle she liked: with an account what the doctor said to her, and a recipe how to make up this pill, and an advice to all young women how to use it.
