A story about the evil eye.

The contributor's mother had a cow which was sick and did not give its usual yield of milk. A man made out that someone had cast an evil eye on it. He asked for water from a certain stream to be brought to him. He shook the water on the cow's back and repeated a verse. The cow got better.
