parsley

In superstitious, medieval times, parsley was believed to have evil powers. For example, it was said that parsley should never be transplanted, since it would cause a death in the family. It was believed that if one plucked parsley and spoke someone's name, the chosen person would die within seven days. To give parsley away meant disaster. Consequently, parsley is probably intended here as a warning to the enemies of the bearer.
