===== Magical Uses =====
Worn or carried, the pansy draws love. It is also potent for love divinations. Plant pansies in the shape of a heart; if they prosper, so too will your love.
A woman whose sailor-love goes to sea can ensure that he thinks of her by burying sea sand in the pansy bed and watering the flowers before sunrise. If pansies are picked when dew is still on them, it will soon rain.
