The tender leaues of Car duns LeuagHft*, 



theprickles taken off,are fometimesvfedtobec 



eaten with other herbes. 



Galen writeth,that the roots of Spna alia do dry and moderately binde, that therefore it is good 



for thofe that be troubled with the laskeand the bloudy flix, that it ftaieth b I ced ing,vrafteth away 



cold fwcllings • eafeth the paineofthc teeth if they be waftied with the deco#ion thereof. 



The feed thereof is of a thin eflence and hot facultie^ therefore he faith that it is good for thofe 

 that be troubled with cramps 



Viofcorides affirmeth that the feeds being drunke are a remedy for infants that haue ttcir i^ 

 drawne together, and for thofe that be bitten o£ferpents : and that it is thought to driuc away icr- 

 pents, if it be but hanged about the necke.
