The decoction of Prunell made with wine or water, doth ioine together and make whole and [ A] sound all wounds, both inward and outward, euen as Bugle doth.
Prunell bruised with oile of Roses and Vineger, and laied to the forepart of the head, swageth [ B] and helpeth the paine and aking thereof.
To bee short, it serueth for the same that Bugle doth, and in the world there are not two better [ C] wound herbs, as hath been often proued.
It is commended against the infirmities of the mouth, and especially the ruggednesse, blacke∣nesse, [ D] and drinesse of the tongue, with a kinde of swelling in the same. It is an infirmitie amongst souldiers that lie in campe. The Germans call it de Braun, which happeneth not without a con∣tinuall ague and frensie. The remedie hereof is the decoction of Selfe-heale, with common water, after bloud letting out of the veins of the tongue: and the mouth and tongue must be often washed with the same decoction, and sometimes a little vineger mixed therewith. This disease is thought to be vnknowne to the old writers: but notwithstanding if it be conferred with that which Paulus Aegineta calleth Erysipelas 〈◊〉〈◊〉, an inflammation of the braine, then will it not be thought to bee much differing, if it be not the very same.
