Of Spinage.

SPinage or spineth is an herbe lately found & not long in vse / but it is so wel knowen amongest al men in al countrees / that it ne∣deth no description / it is well knowen from other herbes by the indented or cut leaues / pricky sede and waterish taste / I knowe not wherefore it is good / sauinge to fill the belly & louse it a litle.

Spinage.

But with those profittes it hurteth the stomach and bredeth winde. It were best that they that woulde vse it / shoulde seth it a litle / and presse oute betwe∣ne two trenchers a great parte of his watery iuyce / and so choppe it and eat it with other herbes / somthinge hoter then it is it selfe.
