Teasel, Fuller's-Thistle, or Venus's Basin, in Latin
Dipsacus.
The Roots of it
boyl'd in Wine, cure Ul∣cers
of the Fundament, cal∣led
Rhagades, and Warts.
The Water that is receiv'd
in the hollowness of the
Leaves, is good for Inflam∣mations
of the Eyes: It al∣so
takes off Spots from the
Face, and beautifies it.
Boyl'd in Wine, it purges
by Urine. But Cloth-workers
use it chiefly.
