Of Oxey.

BVphthalmus hath no other vsed name / that I knowe / ne¦ther in Latin nor Englishe / nether haue I sene it in Eng∣lande: but it maye be called in Latin Oculus bouis / and in Englishe Oxey. I haue sene it in Italye / and in hyghe Almanye. There is very litle difference betwene it / and ye∣lowe Camomille / sauinge that this hath greater knoppes and longer leaues then yelowe Camomyle hath. Diosco∣rides describeth Bupthalmus thus: Buphthalmus or Oxey putteth furth small braunches / and softe / and hath leaues lyke Fe∣nel / and a yelowe floure greater then Camomille / lyke vnto an eye / wher∣vpon it hath the name. It groweth aboute tounes and in greate playnes. The herbe whiche Matthiolus setteth furth for Buthalmo / hath not lea∣ues lyke Fenell / wherefore it is not the right Buthalmus Dioscoridis.

The Vertues of Oxey.

THE floures of thys herbe broken / and mixed wyth wexe in a salue / dryue awaye swellinges and hardenes. It is also re∣ported / that if a man drinke of it / after that he is come furth of the bathe / in continuance of tyme / he shall be deliuered from the iaundes.
