Original passage
When radishes, employed as a remedy, act too powerfully, it is recommended that should be given immediately; there being an antipathy between these two plants. For dulness of hearing, too, radish-juice is injected into the ear. To promote vomiting, it is extremely beneficial to eat radishes fasting.
