Orpine in no vehicle
Original passage
is seldom used in inward Medicines with us, although Tragus saith from experience in Germany that the distilled water thereof is profitable for gnawings, or excoriations in the Stomach or Bowels, and for Ulcers in the Lungs, Liver, or other inward parts, as also in the Matrix, and helpeth all those Diseases, being drunk for certain daies together: And that it stayeth the sharpness of Humors in the Bloody Flux, and other Fluxes in the Body, or in Wounds: The Root, thereof also performeth the same effect. It is used outwardly to cool any heat or Inflamation upon any Hurt or Wound, and easeth the pains of them: as also to heal Scaldings or Burnings: The Juyce thereof beaten with some green Sallet Oyl, and anointed: in the Hands or Legs, doth heal them quickly; and being bound to the Throat, much helpeth the Quinsie, It helpeth also Ruptures and Burstiness.
