4
Then the angel said to him, "Cut open the fish and take the heart and liver and gall and put them away safely."
5
So the young man did as the angel told him; and they roasted and ate the fish. And they both continued on their way until they came near to Ecbatana.
6
Then the young man said to the angel, "Brother Azarias, of what use is the liver and heart and gall of the fish?"
7
He replied, "As for the heart and liver, if a demon or evil spirit gives trouble to any one, you make a smoke from these before the man or woman, and that person will never be troubled again.
8
And as for the gall, anoint with it a man who has white films in his eyes, and he will be cured."
