The Author to the Reader.

LOuing & most naturall countrymen: I haue bestowed some tyme, in reducing the most exquisit new herball or history of plants (first set forth in Dutch and Almayne tongue, by the learned and worthy man, of famous memory, D. Reinbert Dodeon, Phisicion to the Emperour, and translated into English by Master Henry Lyte, Esquire) into a briefe and short Epitome: wherein is contay­ned the disposition and true declaration of the phisike helps of all sorts of herbes and plants, vnder their seueral names & titles, not onely of those which are here in this our countrey of England growing, but also of others of foreine realmes, countreys, and nations, vsed in Phisike, (being nowe brought into a very small volume) So as where the geat booke at large is not to be had, but at a great price, which cānot be procured by the pooret sort, my endeuor herein hath bin chiefly, to make the bene­fit of so good, necessary, and profitable a worke, to be brought within the reach and compasse aswell of you my poore Countrymen & women, whose liues, healths, ease and welfare is to be regarded with the rest, at a smal­ler price, then the greater Volume is: wherein I haue made declaration of certayne dangerous Plants, with their corrections; onely drawing them into a special Title by themselues, which before were dispersed in many pla­ces. This onely obseruation I gaue thee, that where, in many titles of cures, all, or the most part of the herbs or simples for such cure, are drawn within this direct, it is not to be intēded, that all those simples should be ad­ded together in the vse of Phisike, but that euery of them [Page]by themselues are to be ministred for the cure of the dis­ease vnder their seuerall tytles: and that this Caracter or marke,—which you shall finde in many places of this book, is to giue the right vnderstanding of the herbe (by which it is set) by some other more familiar name, then in his first place: And as it pleased that famous and worthy man, D. Reinbert Dodeon, the Patrone of so ex­cellent and necessary a woorke, to offer the same into the world: And as the sayde worshipfull gentleman, master Henry Lyte, by his diligence hath translated the same into our English tongue, for the benefit of all his coun­trymen, to the end the light thereof might not be hidden or extinguished, to their great prayse and cōmendations: Euen so, my poore talent of endeuor hath byn to none other end, but only to draw that into a handfull, which before was in the compas of a great garden: or else to bring that into a little Gardē, which before was (as to be looked for in many fields and disperced places) not to be found but by great labour and industry: my onely and greatest care hath byn of long tyme, to knowe or thinke, how and vpon whome to bestow the dedication of this my small labor: And in the penning of this my letter, my Affections are satisfied with the dedication thereof to thee my poore and louing coūtryman whosoeuer, and to whose hands soeuer it may come: For whose sake I haue desired publicatiō of the same, beseeching Almigh­ty God to blesse vs all.

VVilliam Ram.

ALl the Crow-footes, especially Apium risum, taken inward­ly, spoyleth the sences and vnderstanding, and draweth to­gether all the sinewes of the face, making them that haue eaten thereof, to séeme to laugh, and so they dye laughing, except pre­sent remedy be prouided.

The Corrections of dangerous Herbes, Plants, and simples.

THe danger of Sothernwood:Sothern­wood. Cartha­mus. it is a buctfull enimy to the stomake: wherefore Gallen would not haue it mini­stred inwardly in the body.

The danger of the séede of bastard Saffr [...], it is hurt­ful to the stomake, causing desire to vomyt, of hard and flowe operation, remayning long in the stomake.

¶ Put to that séed, Annis seeds, Galingale, Mastik,Correc­tion. Gin­ger, Salgem, or commen salt, which will hasten his operation, and correct his malignity.

The danger is, being taken into the stomake,Flaxseed or Lyne­seede. Hempe­seede. Lysima­chus, his choyce. Psillium. it is a hindrance to disgestion of meate, and breedeth windinosse.

The danger, it is hard of disgestion, contrary to the stomake, it causeth payne, grief, and d [...]es in the head, it engendreth grosse and naughty humors in all the body.

When yée will vse Lisimachus, take none but that with the yellew Flowres, which is the right herbe, and the other not.

The danger, it is hurtful to mans nature, it engendrech cold­nes, and stifnesse throughout the body, with pensidenesse and heauynesse of the heart.

¶ Prouoke vomit,Correc­tion. with medicines conuenient to cast it vp: then giue to drinke of the best and most sauory wyne, being cowe by it self, or boyled with wormwood, or mingled with hony, and a little lye, or the decoction of Dill.

The best are those which grows in Slauonia. Flowre de Lyce rootes: their choyce.

The next in Macedonia.

The third in Afirica.

The white Iris is taken for the best.

[Page]The danger of the leede taken in too great quantity,Ameos. it ta­keth away the colour, and prouoketh palenesse as in dead bo­dies.

The danger being too much vsed it decayeth the natural com­plexion,Cummin and liuely colour, and causeth a man to looke wan and pale.

It [...]reene Coriander be taken into the body,Coriāder it causeth horid­nes, fransy and d [...]nes of the vnderstanding, it maketh the party seeme as if he were drunken: the Iuyce taken in quan­tity of 4. drams, killeth the body.☜

The dest is that which is reddish,Lacerpi­tium the choyce. Euphor­bium the danger. Correc­tion. cleare & bright, and saua­ring like m [...]rr [...], not greenish, of a good pleasant smell, which being diss [...]ned, w [...]xeth white.

By reason of his extreme heate, it is hurtfull to the lyuor & stomack and all the inward parts, being receyued inwardly, it cha [...]th and instameth out of measure.

First anoynt [...] with the oyle of sweete Almonds, then put it in the middle of a Cytron, and wrap it in leuened paste, and bake it, and then vse it.

Manardus taketh of mastick & gum Dragagant, asmuch as of Euphorbium, and mingling them together, putteth it into the midst of an vnbaked loafe, and baketh it well, then he ta­keth the c [...]m of that loafe, and maketh pills, and giueth it for the weaknes that commeth of the French poxe, & all anguish and paynes outward.

Another mingleth Euphorbium with the like quantity of mastick, and maketh pills with the Iuyce of Citrons, or of Oranges,Astrolo­chia the choyce. and vseth them much agaynst the pestilence.

Round Astrolochia is of fyne and subtill parts, and of stronger operation then the rest, it mundifieth and clenseth mightily, it uppleth and maneth thin, grosse humors.

Long Astrolochia is vetter to incarnate, and to engender flesh in dicers.

Astrolochia Climatis hath best sauor, and therfore maketh best oyntments.

[Page]The danger: In what sort soeuer it be taken,Ciclamē Sow­bread. it is dangerous so women with childe: wherefore let them take héede not onely how they receiue it inwardly, but also let them bee aduised in a­ny wise not to applie it outwardly, nor to carrie it about them, nor yet plant it in their gardens, for it will hinder them if they goe but ouer it.

The danger: being vnprepared,White Elebor. and taken out of time and place, or too much in quantitie, is hurtfull to the bodie: for it cho­keth and troubleth all the inward parts, shrinketh and draweth together al the sinewes, and slayeth the partie: therefore vnpre­pared it ought not to be ministred, nor thou, without good héede and great aduisement: for such as are either too yong, or too olde, féeble, that spit bloud, that are grieued in their stomacks, whose breasts are straight and narrow, their necks long, such people must in no wise deale with it without ieopardie and danger: therefore be aduised by learned Phisicions.

Although blacke Elebor is not so vehement as the white,Blacke Elebor. yet it cannot be giuen without daunger, especially to people hauing their health, &c. and not to be ministred but in desperate causes in the spring time onely: and not before it be aduisedly prepared and corrected.

Elebor giuen with Long-pepper, Isop, Daucus, and Annis­seeds, Corre­ction. maketh it to work the better, & with lesse danger. Also, if it be boyled in the broth of a Capon, or of any other meate: and that broth may be giuen to drinks, and with lesse danger.

The daunger of the Iuice and séede of Tithimalles: Tithi­malles. it wor­keth violently, hurtfull to the nature of man, troubling the body, ouerturning the stomacke, burning the throate, making it rough and sore: wherefore Gallien willeth not to haue it ministred inwardly, but to be applyed outwardly.

¶ Lay the bark of the roots to soke in Vineger byra [...] day,Correc­tion and remedie. then drie it and make it in powder, and put to it Annit and Fenell séedes, Gumme Dragagant and Masticke, and so ministring it with some cooling and refreshing liquor, as Endiue, C [...]bory, or Oringes, &c.

The danger is like to the Tithimalles, and hurtfull.Ezula. Correc­tion.

¶ The euill qualitie is corrected as the Tithimalles.

[Page]The danger: it is hurtfull to mans nature and body,Spourge as the Tithimalles.

¶ Take the séede of Spourge, Correc­tion. with Dates, Figges, or Gumme Dragagant, Masticke, Annisseedes, or any refreshing or codling herbe: or if one drinke water, straight waies it correcteth, &c.

The danger is hurtfull to man,Peplos. Correc­tion. as Spourge.

¶ Is as of Spourge.

Thap­sia. The daunger: in drawing the iuyce from the herbe & roote, great inflamation chaunceth to the partie that draweth it, in his face: And receiued into the bodie, it causeth great windi­nesse, blasting, [...]oyling, and ouerturning the whole body: and it hurteth the bowels and inward parts.

¶ When one will gather the Iuyce,Correc­tion. or strip the barke off the roote, let him anoynt his face and bare places, with oyle of Roses and waxe.

When it shall be ministred inwardly to open the belly, put to it Long-pepper and Sugar.

The danger:Wilde Saffron, Hermo­dactil. it stirreth vp gnawing and fretting in the bo­dy, as if it were all rubbed with nettles, it inflameth the sto­macke, and hurteth the inward parts, so as at first it procureth bloudy excrements, and after bringeth death.

¶ Drinke a great draught of Cow-milke:Correc­tion. Put to it Ginger, Long-pepper, Annis seeds, Comin, and a little Masticke: it cor­recteth, and helpeth.

The danger:Lawrell. it doth bexe and ouerfurne the stomacke, it in­ [...]eth, hurteth, and burneth the inward parts.

¶ The [...] are to be steeped one day in good strong Vini­ger,Correc­tion. then drie it, and kéepe it to vse.

If first you lay to [...]oke in that Vineger, Quinces, or the séede of Barberies, when you will occupie the leaues prepared, you must make them in powder, and giue it with Annisseedes and Mastick, or boyle them in whay or swéete milke, especially goates milke, or the broth of a Capon.

The danger is very néere the nature of venim, hurtfull many wayes to mankind: it greatly hurteth the stomacke, liuer, and to all principall parts of man,Chame­lea. chasing, and vehemently grieuing the inward parts.

[Page]¶ The correction is as of Lawrell. Correc­tion.

Meze­ron. The dāger, by reason that it is very hote, it is very hurtfull, and of strong and vehement working, grieuing the inward parts.

¶ His correction is as of Chamelea. Correc­tion.

Staues­agre. His danger is very hurtfull to Nature, for it cafeth & infla­meth all inward parts: it ouerturneth the stomacke, being hol­den in the mouth: it causeth inflamation in the mouth and throate, and therefore it is to bee ministred outwardly.

¶ Before you occupie the seede of Stauesagre, slipe it in Vi­neger,Correc­tion. and drie it.

You may giue it to be drunken with meat or Honied wa­ter.

Who that hath taken in any of this séede, must walke without staying, and should drinke Hidromell often, when he séeleth a­ny kind of choking.

Wild Cowcu­mer, the correcti­on. ¶ It must be giuen with meade, or with swéet milke, a lit­tle Annisseeds and salt, or giue it in powder with Gumme Dra­gagānt, Annisseedes, and a little salt.

Idem, Collo­quintida Correc­tion. Elder. The dāger: it hurteth the inward parts, & openeth the smal vaines; it prouoketh gripings, and torments in the belly.

The daunger is excéeding hurtfull to the stomack, and Liuer, hurting the bowels and intrayles.

¶ Put to the pulpe or pith thereof Gumme Dragagant and Mastick, and after make it into Troches or Balles with hony.

The danger it is very hurtfull to man, it stirreth vomiting, tossing and tumbling the stomack, bowels, and belly, it ma­keth the body weake and féeble, and it wasteth the strength of the Liuer.

The daunger:Wall-woort. White Briony. it is noysome to the Stomack and inward partes, as Elder.

The daunger is, the roote by his violence troubleth and ouer­turneth the stomack, and other inner paris, it is altogether euill, and contrary to women with child.

¶ The malice or naughty quality thereof is taken away,Correc­tion. by putting to Mastick, Einger, and Cinnamon.

[Page] 1 The danger: the Iuice is very strong and violent, causing wambling and windinesse.

2 It chafeth the liuer and bloud, and it ingendereth feuers to such as be of hote complection.

3 It openeth the vaines, and hurteth the bowels and inward parts, to the prouoking of bloudy excrements, verie hurtfull to the liuer, heart, and inward parts.

¶ Boyle or digest it in a Quince,Correc­tion. or paste of Quinces, vntill the Quinces bee verie tender and perfitely boyled, and then it is called Diagredium.

2 Mixe it with some cold Iuyce, as of Roses, Psilliū, or Prune­pulpe.

3 Put to your Diagredium, Mastick, or the iuyce of Quinces.

The danger is verie great,Fearne. Polipo­die the choyce. especially to women with child.

The roote which groweth at the foote of the oke is best, and most profitable to be vsed in medicines.

Ranū ­culus. The daunger: they al are dangerous and hurtfull, they kill and slay, especially Apium Risus, which taken inwardly, spoy­leth sences, & draweth the sinewes, as those which haue eaten thereof, seeme to laugh, and die laughing, without some present remedie.

The danger is great,Acco­nite. it killeth wolues, swine, and all beasts both wilde and tame that eate of it.

The danger of wolues bane,Licocti­num. Rose­oleander Nereū. being taken in, it inflameth the heart, burneth the unward parts, and killeth the body.

The danger: it is verie hurtfull to man, and killeth Shéep, Goates, Dogges, Asses, Mules, Horses, and all foure footed beasts.

The danger:Mandra­gora. it is most hurtful to man, to be receiued into the body, if it be takē in, neuer so little quantitie more then ought to be, it killeth the body: the leaues and fruit are also very dange­rous.

The danger is great:Solanū somni­ferum. if yée giue more then twelue berries, it causeth rauing, distraction, and furiousnes, as much as Opium.

The roote taken in wine, to the quantitie of a dram, causeth vaine and idle imaginations: two drams bringeth frensie and madnesse, which lasteth three or foure daies: foure drams taken [Page]in, killeth the bodie.

The danger by his venemous qualitie is great:Hem­block. for whoso­euer taketh of it, dieth, except hée drinke good old wine after it. But if he taketh Iuyce of Hemblock together with the wine, the poyson is augmented, and it killeth.

The danger:Chiche pease. the vse of these pease is not very good for them that haue any vlceration in their kidneyes or bladders: for they be too much scouring, and do cause the vrine to be sharpe.

The danger of Ers or Oribus: being vsed often,The bit­ter vitch, called Eruum. & in too great a quantitie, it causeth head-ache and heauie dulnes: it bringeth forth bloud both by vrine and excrements of the belly.

The dāger ofPoole Reede. Poole Reed or Harundo vallatoria,is, that if the downe that is in the toppe or tufting tassell thereof chanceth to fall into the eares, it bringeth such dulnesse and deafnesse as is hard to bee cured.

The danger: the often eating thereof ingendreth many instr­mities:Orache. it ouerturneth the stomacke, and it causeth diuers spots, freckles, and pimples to arise in the face, and all the rest of the body, also it is hard of digestion.

The danger of them: eaten,Cole­worts. they ingender grosse and melan­cholicke bloud, especially the redde kind: the white are better to digest, and engender more agréeable and better nourishment, e­specially when they haue béene twise sodden.

The danger is: séeing thée séed is verie hote,Thlas­pie. and of strong and vehement working, insomuch that being taken in too great a quantitie, it purgeth or scoureth euen vnto bloud, and is verie hurtfull to women with childe, therefore it may not bee rashly ministred inwardly.

The danger: it is dangerous to bee often vsed,Indian pepper, Capsicū. Omons. or in too great a quantitie: for this-pepper hath in it a certaine euill qualitie, whereby it killeth dogges, if it be giuen them to eate.

The daunger: the often vse of them causeth head-ache, and ouer-much sleepe, and is hurtfull to the eyes.

The daunger: they engender euill humors and windinesse,Leekes. they cause heauie and terrible dreames: they darken the eye­sight: they are very hurtful to them that haue any exulcerations, or going off of the skinne of the bladder or raynes.

[Page]The daunger:Squilla. it is a very sharpe and hard medicine, it is sub­till and wasting, hurtfull, and forcing the nature of man, when it is taken or vsed rawe.

¶ It is not to be vsed into the body,Correc­tion. Arbutus without it be first sod­den, rosted, or baked.

The daunger: the fruit thereof eaten hurteth the Stomack, and causeth head Ach.

The daunger:Agarick it is of slow operation, taken in too great a quantitie, it féebleth the inward parts.

¶ It is corrected being giuen with Vineger, Sal gemme, Correc­tion. Yewtree and chiefly with Oximell.

The daunger: it is altogether venimous, and against mans nature.

It is so hurtfull, that if one do but fléepe vnder it, or the sha­dow thereof, he becommeth sicke and sometimes dieth, especial­ly when it bloweth.

In Gascoyne it is most daungerous: if any eate the fruit, if causeth the laske.

The birds that eate the Berries thereof, do eyther die or cast their feathers.

Wilt thou lend me dayes three,

And all that longs theretill.

Obseruations for gardening, by Fa­ther Kinke of Tibolds.

TRench and leuell your ground in summer, if it be not alrea­die broken in winter.

Then may you sowe all maner winter herbes, for Sallets, and for the Kitchin.

Foureséene dayes before Bartholmew-tide, set knots of all maner herbes, and borders, with double Wall-flowres, Gilli­flowres, Pinks, and such like.

If the ground be readie, sow Endiue to make white, foure­séene dayes before Midsummer, and sow at euery wane vnto Hallownetyde.

Then must you take them vp in a drie time, and set or lay them as close as you may, that the earth come not among them.

At Bartholmew time is good sowing of white Cabage.

Take them vp in Ianuarie, in the wane of the Moone, or in Februarie, and replant them two foote asunder, and they will be readie to eate about Midsummer.

Sowe of the same Cabage again about Februarie, then shall you doe as aboue-said, and they will bee readie about Hollomas and Christmas.

Sowe about Februarie Cabage Lettice, in the wane of the Moone.

[Page]Sowe in March all herbes for the Kitchen.

Sowe in May, Turneps, Reddish, and Carrets, to serue for winter.

Cut your knots and borders in the spring of the Moone, to make them grow apace.

Do the like by all quickset bedges.

If you will haue them to grow softly, cut them in the wane, and it will be the longer before they shall be cut againe.

Set and lay red and damaske Roses, and strawberries, after Bartholmewtide.

Beginne to remoue all sorts of trées for fruites, at Hallown­tide.

In the latter end of Aprill, or the beginning of May, pricke in the groūd, Bazel, Margerā, Melons, Pumpeons, Cucumers, &c.

Lay your Cucumer and Melon séedes in milke to soke, a day and a night before you pricke them in the ground, in the wane of the Moone.

For seare of frost couer them in the night with pottes, and for seare of snayles.

Cut your vine in Ianuarie or in Februarie, in the wane of the Moone, or at the beginning of March, two or three ioynts: but in May cut it not too neere, for feare it bléede and hinder the vine.

If it be a yong vine, cut but two ioynts, and cut it betwéene the ioynts, not too neere any ioynt, and it will beare very well.

Set vines in Ianuarie or Februarie.

If in the end of Aprill, or the beginning of May, you will cut a branch of a vine, it will bléede verie much: you may pre­serue that water in a glasse for your eyes.

Eather all fruit to last, in the wane of the moone, next before or after Michaelmas, and lay them in a close chamber, vpon heapes.

In distilling of any waters, when your glasse is full, put in a Still full of Roses, or of other things that you mind to still, and put your glasse into your Still vncouered, & let it stand till that be stilled: then close vp your glasse, and neuer set it in the sunne.

[Page]To graffe in the Shield, is to be done in Iune and Iuly, with the rynde.

To graffe in te Stochin, is to be done in March and Aprill, in the new Moone, or a day or two before the change. First pare the skinnes readie to put in the stocke, before you cleaue the stocke: straight put in your skins, and clay them sure: for if the sap of a Plumme trée take wind, it then will not prosper.
