It is found to be as effectual as Purslane to al the purposes whereunto it serveth, except for meat only. The Herb bruised or the Juyce applied (with cloaths or spunges dipped therein) to the Region of the Liver, and as they dry to have fresh applied, doth wonderfully temper the heat of the Liver; and is effectual for all Imposthums and Swellings wheresoever; for Scabs, the Juyce either simply used, or boyled with Hogs-Greas and applied; the same helpeth Cramps, Convulsions and Palsies; The Juyce or distilled Water is of much good use for al heat and redness in the Eyes to drop som therof into them; as also into the Ears to ease pains in them, and is of good effect to ease the pains, the heat, and sharpness of Blood in the Piles and generally al pains in the Body that arise of heat; it is used also in hot and virulent Ulcers and sores in the privy parts of Man or Woman, or on the Legs or els-where. The Leavs boyled with Marsh Mallows and made into a Pultis with Fenugreek, and Linseed, applied to Swellings or Imposthumes ripeneth and breaketh them, or swageth the swellings and easeth the pains: It helpeth the Sinews when they are shrunk by Cramps or otherwise, and to extend and make them pliable again, by this Medicine. Boyl an handful of Chickweed and a handful of Red-Rose Leavs dryed, but not distilled in a Quart of Muscadine until a fourth part be consumed; then put to them a pint of the Oyl of Trotters, or Sheeps-feet; let them boyl a good while still stirring them wel; which being strained, anoint the grieved place herewith, warm against a fire, rubbing it wel in with ones hand, and bind also some of the Herb (if you wil) to the place, and with Gods blessing it will help in three times dressing. |
