Oats in Devil's work and illusion.

Oat Straw Extract INCI Name Avena Sativa Kernel Extract CAS 84012-26-0 EINECS ELINCS No 281-672-4 Oat Straw Powdered Extract Oat Extract Avena sativa Linn photo picture image Oats and corn, according to Kramer and Sprenger, were used to nourish penises stolen by witches:

 And what, then, is to be thought of those witches who in this way sometimes collect male organs in great numbers, as many as twenty or thirty members together, and put them in a bird's nest, or shut them up in a box, where they move themselves like living members, and eat oats and corn, as has been seen by many as is a matter of common report? It is to be said that it is all done by devil's work and illusion, for the senses of those who see them are deluded in the way we have said. For a certain man tells that, when he had lost his member, he approached a known witch to ask her to restore it to him. She told the afflicted man to climb a certain tree, and that he might take which he liked out of a nest in which there were several members. And when he tried to take a big one, the witch said: You must not take that one; adding, because it belonged to a parish priest (Krmer and Sprenger 121).
