Most of the superstitions and folk beliefs in the book are outside of present-day knowledge and science. There were charms against witches and devils, who were entities to be feared.There are legends which describe superstitions about the cosmos and daily life. Others identify and describe the plants and animals used in remedies for diseases and illnesses.Many superstitions that were believed are now considered to be false. Some of the so-called cures can be attributed to psychosomatic illnesses and diseases.
