Of Quibibbes.

I Haue not sene the tree / nether the leaues / of Quibibbes / for it groweth not in those places of Europa that I know of / where I haue bene / and therefore I can not describe him. I haue sene the berries oft tymes / for the berries are common in England and in al countreys. They are of the bignes of pepper / but lighter & somwhat brouner w^t a litle stalke / as y^e Iuy berries haue. They are called in barba∣rous Latin Cubebe. I thinke y^t the old writers knew nothing of this simple.

The vertues of Quibibbes.

THE sede is hote in the beginning of the third degree / and perfitly in the ende of the thirde degree. This berrye ma∣keth stronge the stomake / that is weike by reason of fle∣me or of winde / and they scoure from the breste / tough & grosse humores. They helpe the milte / and dryue awaye winde / and helpe the cold diseases of the mother. If they be chawed longe with mastick / they drawe fleme from the head / and strengthen the brayne / and to be short / they are good against all cold diseases.
