C.

Calcedonie. Calcidonius.

• P. The place is not much observed, where it's found.
• M. It's between berill and jacinth, so Lapidar.
• N. Carchedonius, Chalcedonius lapis.

CAlcedonie, Ru. K. as the male and female, T. V. it's commended against symptomes from black choller, &c. some promise victorie to those that have them: being hot it draweth motes unto it. C. the best are the males which shine more bright, shewing shining starrs within, which are witnesses of its excellent vertues. Campeg. those of Lotharingia, helpe hoarsness and clarifie the voice.

Chrysolite. Chrysolithos.

• P Often in Bohemia, in India, Arabia, and Ethiopia.
• M. It's of a solar nature.
• N. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉. Topasius Germ. mod. Heb Tharsis.

Chrysolite. Schrod. K. as the orientall and European. T. its judged to be of a solar nature, according to its signature. V. therefore it's thought good to lesson night griefes, and melancholy, to strengthen the intel∣lect, and to prevent troublesome dreames, being hung about the neck or arme. some commend the taking of it against the falling sicknesse. Ru. it helps the parts for respiration and asthma, as also against pusila∣nimity, and stupidity: so Alcas. Myl. Ru. Myl Albert. Mag. it removeth folly and causeth constancy of mind. Alcas. Abuleaf. it seemeth of a golden colour in the day, and fiery in the night Plin. Alcas. Ru. the best is of agolden colour; and that makes gold look like silver ilaid together.

Chrysoprase. Chrysoprasus.

• P. In India: so Plin. Albert. Mag. Isid: Anselm. Rib.
• M. Of certaine drops of gold, so Lapidar.
• N. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉. Lapis Chrysoprasinus.

Chrysoprase. Ru. K. as the prasoide, and chrysopteron: V. Ru. it strengthneth the heart, and helpeth weaknesse of the eyes: some count it also good against the desire of covetousnesse, and say that it sheweth it selfe onely in the dark. Caes. Alcas. Arnold. and Berchor, and others, it helpeth the eyes to fix upon an object. Alcas. it causeth generosity. its reported to be of a pale colour in the day, and fiery in the night: So Isid. Caus. Alcas. Maiol. though Pliny Alcasar and Solinus doubt thereof.

Coral. Corallium.

• P. The red in India, and the Tyrrhene sea, the black in Spain.
• M. Of an arboreous. stone, hardened by aire: So Ru. Caes.
• N. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉. Arab. Bassad, Morgen, besd. Corallum.

Coral. Schrod. K. as the male or red, female or pale, white, black, green, yellowish, ash-coloured, and dusk coloured. T. all corall dry∣eth, cooleth, and bindeth. V. it strengthneth chiefely the heart, then the stomach and liver. it purifieth the bloud, and therefore resisteth the plague, poyson, and malignant feavers; also it maketh a man merry; but the black maketh melancholy. it stoppeth all fluxes of the belly, womb, and yard. It prevents the gonorrhoea, and epilepsie in children, 10 gr. thereof being given to the infant in the mothers milk, before the taking of any other thing, as soone as it is borne. Out∣wardly it helps ulcers, filling them with flesh. it extenuates cicatri∣ces; it helps the eyes, and stoppeth the weeping of the same; in colly∣ries it recreates the sight: the D. is scrup. 1. to drach. 1. Paracels. the bright and shining helps against feares, fascinations, inchauntments, poysons, the epilepsie, melancholy, & as some say against the insults of evill spirits, and lightnings, (which every one may censure) the white hanged to the breast helpeth the hemorrage of women. C. the best is the red or masculine, which is to be understood as often as it is prescribed without mention of the colour, the next is the pale, then the white, last the black: that of other colours is neither used, nor commonly accounted for true corall. Diosc. it meanly cooleth, restrai∣neth

excrescencies: it helps the cicatrices of the eyes, cleansing the same, it stops the evacuation of bloud, helps the difficulty of urine, and lessens the spleen being drunk in water. That called antipa∣thes, being black, hath the same vertues. Caes. corall exhilerates the heart, helps the formina, evils of the bladder and stone, being pow∣dered by the help of fire, and drunk in water, so Matth. Plin. Myl. and Ru. some say it resisteth tempests, as Ru. Myl. drunk in water it causeth sleep. Plin. Ru. it preventeth danger. Plin. Ru. Bras. it helpeth children. Myl. hanged to the neck or armes it prevents fascination and poysons: Bras. as also melancholy, the epilepsie, and apoplexie. Myl. Matth. it helps the falling sicknesse being taken. Matth. Myl. it restraineth the menses, fastens the teeth, rectifieth the gummes, and helps ulcers of the mouth, drunk it helps the dysentery, flux of sperme, night pollutions, and stops the whites in women. Myl. being ta∣ken with harts horne, and raine water, it helps diverse diseases of the body, especially the wormes. Myl. Ru. being powdered and put into hollow teeth, it draweth them forth, without pain. Myl. the Chy∣micall oile of corall taken in the q. of scrup. 1. in sack, helpeth all diseases of the parts, both inward and outward; in 5 weeks space. it cureth the falling sicknesse both in children and young people, as also all fluxes, of the belly, womb, or bloud, in any part. Ru. white corall hanged to the breast, so that it may touch the stomach stoppeth bloud flowing out of the nostrils; also it strengthens the heart and stomach, either being taken inwardly or applyed. Ru. the powder of corall makes bitter water sweet. some say also that it helpeth fruits; but it's censured by Rueus. Plin. Matth. Bras. Ru. also many use it by way of ornament, &c. Schrod. Hartm. in Pract. The salt of corall, made by the spirit or acid liquour of pockwood, doth mightily purify the blood in the french pocks: the D. is gr. 6. to 20. the vertues are to be seen before. The magisterie of corall, differs not from the salt in sub∣stance, vertues, or dose. The oile or liquour of corall, besides the foremen∣tioned vertue of corall, doth also help the stone: the D. is gr. 4. to 15. The essence and tincture, as they are of a more operose preparation, than the salt or magistery, so also are they of more excellent vertue: the D. is 6 drops to 15. and more. The tincture of Basil, cureth those that are mad, or melancholick. Hartm. in Croll. That of Hartman, is of such vertue, that after the repeated use thereof, it will be impossible, that any impurity should remain in the bloud of the whole body: D. it's given in fit vehicles, from 3 drops to 10. this tincture de∣serveth to be well esteemed of by the practitioner, by reason of its excellent vertues, as agreeing very well with the spirits of mans,

body. Hartm. in Croll. That by the spirit or water of honey, D. is given from 4 gr. to 12. Agric. That by the phlegme of Saturne, is an excellent cordiall, and doth mightily exalt the native balsame; and is of chiefe use in the feares of infants, and the epilepsie, &c. the D. is gr. 3 to 5. Langel. the Holsatick tincture of corall, is good in all affections ari∣sing from the impurity of bloud. The tincture of S. Closs. is good against contractures: the D. is drach. sem. alone. The succinate oile of corall, is good in the epilepsie and apoplexie, the D. is 4 drops to 8. The compounded syrup of corall, of Sr. Th. Mayerne, which is thence made, D. is given to one spoonefull morning, and evening, long from meales: the vertues thereof may be conjectured from those of corall and juyce of barberries: it's greatly commended in the diarrhoea, dysentery. hepatick, flux, and the restauration of the naturall faculties. hereof is made the diacorallion Pharm. Lond.

Corneol. Sardius.

• P. In Sardinia, Epirus and Aegypt, Bohemia and Silesia.
• M. It's the originall of the Amethist, so Alcas.
• N. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉. Sarda. Carnerina. Cornerina. Heb. Adam. Corneolus.

Corneol. Caes. S. Epiphan. Riber. Alcas. T. V. it cureth wounds that are made by iron, and tumours. Vieg. Alcas. Riber. Aret. it causeth feare in wild beasts. Abulens. Alcas. it causeth joy. Ru. it expelleth feare, causeth audacity, prevents dangers, stoppeth bloud flowing out of the nostrils, and sharpneth the wit. Albert. Meg. it sticketh to bords, as the iron to the load-stone. Alcas. it is as it were, the mo∣ther and originall of the amethist. Schrod. the powder being drunk stoppeth all fluxes of bloud, and defendeth the body against all poy∣son: but it chiefely stoppeth bloud, and applied preserveth the birth. Aldrov. applied it helps hot tumours, the powder whiteneth the teeth.
