Out of Galene de simplicibus.
THe bughes of ye Olyue tre / as much as they haue of binding / so much coldnes haue they also. The fruite if it be trowly ryp / is mesurably hote. But if it be not rype / thē it couleth more & byndeth more. Oliues norishe but a litle / & namely they that for rypenes fall of the tre. Which ye comon peple comōly ete wt brede & otherwhyles with bryne before other metes / to louse the belly / and these Oliues ar called almacles and colymbades. As the very rype haue muche fatnes in thē / so the vnrype haue a byndyng iuice by reson where of they streyngthen the stomack and make a man haue an appetite.
