Hearbe Angel: or the Angelicall, or Angelike hearbe.

Angelica is another excellent thing, and as it is affir∣med by diuers learned writers that the properties and vertue thereof is much like vnto the other, and that if the one be lacking, the other may be taken. The learned men of Germanie write thus of it, that if anie man, or o∣ther thing bee sodainly taken with poison, or other euill aire of infection. Let the powder of the roote mingled with some of the distilled water be giuen inwardly, and it presently helpeth. Also the powder of the roote being giuen with the distilled water of Cardus Benedictus is of the like vertue, and will cleanse the body of any poisoned infection newly taken.

They say also that the leaues of Angelica beaten with the leaues of Rue and hony will cure the bitings of mad dogges, or any other venemous thing, also with all some of the water wherein the roote and leaues of Angeli∣ca is boiled must be taken, or giuen into the body of either Hawke, or whatsoeuer it be that shall haue the like misfortune.
