Description: | There are two sorts of Beets which are best known generally, and wherof I shal principally intreat at this time. Viz. The White and the Red Beets, and their vertues. The Common White Beet hath many great Leaves next the ground somwhat large, and of a whitish green colour: The Stalk is great, strong and ribbed, bearing great store of leaves upon it almost to the very top of it: The flowers grow in very long tufts, smal at the ends, and turning down their Heads, which are smal, pale, greenish, yellow Burrs, giving cornered prickled Seed. The Root is great, long and hard, and when it hath given Seed of no use at all. The Common Red Beet differeth not from the White, but only it is lesser and the Leaves and the Roots are somwhat red: The Leaves are differently red, in som only with red strakes or veins, som of a fresh red, and others of a dark red. The Root hereof is red, spungy and not used to be eaten. |

Use: | The White Beet doth much loosen the Belly, and is of a clensing and digesting quality, and provoketh Urin: The Juyce of it openeth obstructions both of the Liver and Spleen, and is good for the Headaches and swimmings therein, and turnings of the Brain; and is effectual also against al venemous creatures: and applied upon the Temples, stayeth Inflamations in the Eyes; it helpeth Burnings being used without Oyl, and with a little Allum put to it, is good for St. Anthonies fire. It is also good for al Wheals, Pushes, Blisters, and Blains in the Skin: The Herb boyled and laid upon Chilblains or Kibes, helpeth them: The Decoction therof in Water and some Vinegar healeth the Itch, if bathed therwith, and clenseth the Head of Dandraf, Scurff, and dry Scabs, and doth much good for fretting and running Sores, Ulcers, & Cankers in the Head, Legs, or other parts, and is much commended against Baldness and shedding of Hair. The red Beet is good to stay the Bloody Flux, Womens Courses, and the Whites, and to help the yellow Jaundice. The Juyce or the Root put into the Nostrils purgeth the Head, helpeth the nois in the Ears, and the Tooth-ach; the Juyce snuffed up the Nose helps a stinking Breath if the caus lie in the Nose as many times it doth, if any bruis have been there, as also want of smel coming that way. |
