present which cannot be restored except by much washing Malachites Aldrov some report that being used it keepeth from lightning petturbation of the mind contagion feares and witchcraft and it 's therefore hung about the necks of children also it 's used as an amulet against the syncope paines rupture and falls the powder drunk with milk helps the collick heart-ach by purging gr 6. thereof serving in stead of antimonie so Boet. the same drunk with a little honey provoketh the termes and cureth spasmes being applied with a moist linnen cloth mixed with aqua vitae it cureth virulent ulcers Crat. being applied to the stomach it strengthneth it and agreeth therein with jasper so used Heliotropium Aldrov it hath very great affinity to the Jasper and is therefore thought to have the vertues of the same it resisteth poyson and stoppeth bleeding in any part Boet. being worne it hindereth the generation of the stone helps the concoction of the stomach and epilepsie Marbod it was thought formerly to help to foretell things and make invisible him that wore it which is both superstitious and fabulous Ageratus Aldrov Gal. it was formerly used by Carriers being of an astringent and digestive facultie Alabandina Aldrov is used in the making of glasse Aphroselinus Aldrov is corrupted by showers it shineth like Christall and may be cleft thinner than writing paper Adarce Gal. is very sharp and hot and is to be used outwardly only mixed with other things that may correct its violence and so it helps the leprosie morphew and other cutaneous affections So Plin. Camphora Aldrov some count it cold and dry 3º others hot and dry 2º and some of a mixt quality and therefore extoll it both in hot and cold diseases Rhasis counteth it of cold moist and thin parts but Platearius cold and dry 4º therefore the very smell thereof is thought to hinder venery and to provoke sleepe but it 's rather hot sharp and aeriall and bitter Gal. and easily taketh fire therefore Mauritanus counteth it hot and dry 2o. yet it cureth burnings by attracting the hot and fiery attoms V. Avic it helps the concoction of the stomach and liver cutteth phlegme discusseth flatulencies and causeth watching but other authors attribute the contrary faculties unto it Aldrov it helps hot head aches inflamations the crysipelas and burnings sc by drawing out the heat by the tenuity of it's parts therefore Fuchsius substitutes the flowers of water lillies plaintain or semper vive also taken with succinum it helps the gonorrhoea and flux of the womb and used to the forehead it stops bleeding with the water of plantain it 's used in collyries also against lippitude and causeth sleep used both inwardly and outwardly and whitenesse of the face so the oile chiefely Jodoc also it helps the heat of the liver headach poysons pestilence and prevents putrefaction Fren. the oile helps against putrefaction fits of the mother passions of the heart c. a few drops being taken in any liquour anointed on the breast or the fume may be taken at the mouth Merul. with a like q. of pure powder of brimstone and wax it maketh a candle that will not be put out by any weather Lapi● Vulturis see in my Panzoology so Lapis Cancrorum Carpionis Aldr. the powder helps the hemmorhage having an astringent faculty Melanteria Aldrov is astringent as mysy exceeding all astringent remedies by its tenuity Load-stone Kirch hath the same faculty as Iron helps the spleen and dropsie in mulse worne about the neck it helps the spasme and paines of the nerves held in the hand it 's said to accelerate the birth It is to be kept being hanged up that it may have its naturall position and to be fed with steele filings it 's to be preserved from things that are greasie being wrapped in a purple cloth There are diverse other nautick and mechanick uses thereof but as not belonging to this purpose they are here omitted and the rest may be seene amongst the rest of the stones in the precedent Alphabet FINIS AN INDEX Containing the Latin Names of such Living Creatures and Mineralls as are mentioned in this Book in Alphabetical order together with their English Names Tetrapodologia Of four-footed Beasts A.
