In the vicinity of Ariminum, there is a well-known plant called "reseda:" [Note] it disperses abscesses and all kinds of inflammations. Those who employ it for these purposes, add
the following words: "Reseda," [Note] allay this disease! knowest thou not, knowest thou not, what chick it is that has torn up these roots? Let it have nor head nor feet!" [Note] This formula is repeated thrice, the party spitting on the ground each time.
