Aspalathos

Description

As a result, boiled in wine and gargled, it is good for an ulcerated mouth and gangrenous ulceration in the genitals. It is infused for unclean discharges and fetid nasal discharges; and put into a pessary, it is an abortifacient. A decoction stops bowels, and taken as a drink it stops bloody vomiting, and dissolves painful urination and gaseousness.
