Portulaca.
POrtulaca,* 1.1 called in Greeke 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, is of two kindes.
Hortensis (whiche Lanfranke calleth Domestica),* 1.2 and Syl∣uestris:
and is after Galen, of a colde & watery tempe∣ramente,

in the seconde: hauynge also some tartnes, and therfore
stayeth whotte and bilious fluxions, and by a certeyn clam∣mynes

is profitably geuen to Dysentericis, mulitbri pro∣fluuio,
and to reiections of bloude: but to these the iuice is

named 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉.* 1.4* 1.5
