The Leaves, the Flowers and Seeds are in use: They are Cepha∣lick, Uterine, and proper for the Nerves. They are chiefly used for Diseases of the Head and Nerves; for Apoplexies, Palsies, Fal∣ling-sickness, and Giddi∣ness. They quicken the Sight, and help the Me∣mory, and cure a Stink∣ing Breath. They are used for the Whites, and Jaun∣dice. And they comfort the Heart, and open Ob∣structions of the Liver, Spleen and Womb. The
Herb burnt, corrects the Air, and renders it whole∣som in the time of a Plague. A Decoction of it in Wa∣ter, taken before Exercise, cures the Jaundice. The Seed taken in Wine, does the same. The Tops of it infus'd in Wine or Beer, and taken daily, cure the Palsie, and other Diseases of the Nerves. The Flow∣ers dried, and taken in a Pipe, like Tobacco, are good for a Cough and Con∣sumption. The Chymical Oyl of it, taken in a pro∣per Decoction, has cured many Tertian Agues: Four or six Drops are the Dose. A desperate and long Diar∣rhaea has been cured with Rosemary-wine. The Queen of Hungary's Water is made of Flowers infus'd in Spirit of Wine.
