Description: This is a smal Herb seldom rising above a a Foot high, with square hoary and woody Stalks, and two smal hoary Leavs set at a Joynt, about the bigness of Marjoram, or not much cigger, a little dented about the edges, and of a very fierce or quick scent, as the whol Herb is: The Flowers stand at several spaces of the Stalks from the middle almost upwards, which are smal and gaping like to those Mints, and of a pale Blush colour: after which follow smal, round, blackish Seeds: The Root is smal and Woody, with divers smal sprigs spreading within the ground, and dieth not, but abideth many yeers.
Place: It groweth on Heaths, and Upland dry grounds, in many places of this Land.

It takes away black and blue marks in the Face, and maketh black Scars become wel colored, if the green Herb (not the dry) be boyled in Wine and laid to the place, or the place washed therwith. Being applied to the Hucklebone, by continuance of time it spendeth the humors which caused the pain of the Sciatica.

Let not Women be too busy with it, for it works very violently upon the Foeminin parts.
