Description: |
|
This being sown of Seed, riseth up at the first with smal, long, narrow hairy dark green Leavs like grass, without any division or gash in them; but those that follow are gashed in on both sides the Leavs into three or four gashes and pointed at the ends resembling the Knags of a Bucks Horn (wherof it took the name) and being well grown round about the Root upon the ground, in order one by another therby rsembling the form of a Star: from among which rise up divers hairy Stalks, about a hand breadth high, bearing every one a smal long spiky Head like to those of the common Plantane, having such like Bloomings and Seed after them. The Root is single, long, and smal, with divers strings at it. |
|
Place: |
|
They grow in dry Sandy grounds, as in Tuttle-Fields by Westminster, and divers other places of this Land. |
|
Time: |
|
They Flower and Seed in May, June, and July, and their green Leavs do in a manner abide fresh al the Winter. |
|
Use: |
|
This boyled in Wine and drunk, and some of the Leavs applied to the hurt place, is an excellent remedy for the biting of the Viper or Adder which I take to be one and the same: The same being also drunk helpeth those that are troubled with the Stone in the Veins or Kidnies by cooling the heat of the parts afflicted strengthning them: as also weak Stomachs that cannot retain but cast up their Meat. It stayeth al bleedings at Mouth and Nose, bloody Urin, or the Bloody Flux, and stoppeth the Lask of the Belly and Bowels. The Leavs herof bruised and laid to their sides that have an Ague, suddenly easeth the Fit: and the Leavs and Roots beaten with some Bay Salt and applied to the Wrists, worketh the same effects. The Herb boyled in Ale or Wine and given for some mornings and evenings together, staieth the distillations of hot and sharp Rhewms falling into the Eyes from the Head, and helpeth al sorts of sore Eyes.
Venus challengeth the Dominion of this Herb. |
