prayer to stop a dog from barking

I found a book of charms, prayers and magic songs from the prehistoric Finnish people.  There's words of healing power (for hiccups, a lizard bite, when torn by a wolf or bear); words to chant to attract love, to repulse love, to avoid the cowhouse snake; prayers against wasps and elf-shots.
Here's a prayer to silence a dog:

Field maiden, farmyard girl! O golden king of earth,

here where they need thee, come from the field with thy

family to close the mouth of a dog, to plug the nozzle of a

whelp. Bind silk across its eyes, tie a bandage round its

ears, a mushroom up one nostril thrust, an apple up the

other one, lest it should scent the breath of man, perceive

the smell of a full-grown man, lest it should hear a passer-

by, lest it should see a wanderer.

Try it and let me know if it works!  There's two more in the book, if this one doesn't do the trick.
