The Properties of Homloke.

IF that anye man be afrayd that he hath ea¦ten or dronken Homloke / let him drinke pu∣re hote wine / whiche is not to subtile. The maner of kepinge of the iuyce of Homloke / is this: Take the toppes of Homloke / before the sedes and leaues wexe harde / and bruse them / and presse out the iuyce / and set it in the sunne / and let it harden with sunne / and when it is harde / laye it vp and vse it. This is good to put vnto eye medicines / to quen∣che the ache withal. It quencheth the out∣ragious hete / called saint Antonis fyre / and runninge sores whiche sprede abroade very muche. The herbe wyth the leaues broken and layd vnto a mannes stones / stauncheth the imaginations & dreaming of the bodely pleasur / which chanse vpon the night: but it febleth the member of generation. The same layd vpon a lately delyuered womannes pappes / wasteth awaye the milke / and if it be layde vpon maydens brestes in the tyme of their virginite / it holdeth them doune / and suffereth them not to growe. Homloke of Candye is of moste strength / and it of Magara / after them it of Athenes / and they that growe in Cio and in Cilicia.
