TAke the buds of this vegetable, when they are young and greene,* 1.1 perboile them in water, and make thereof a sallade, and giue it vnto those, that haue costiue bodies, and it will prouoke them to the stoole.* 1.2 It is an herbe, verie profitable for the sinewes, it comforteth the weake partes, and preserueth such, as are weake in the ioints from many accidēts: it purgeth flegme, which (for the most part) causeth debilitie of the nerues. Whosoeuer vseth to drinke of a sirupe, made of the berries thereof, shall not be troubled with the gowt, nor any disease.* 1.3 in the articular partes. The seede dried, is profitable, against all infirmities caused of humiditie.
