The stone called "melitinus" [Note] yields a liquid that is sweet,
like honey. Bruised and incorporated with wax, it is curative of pituitous eruptions, spots upon the skin, and ulcerations of the fauces. It removes epinyctis [Note] also, and, applied as a pessary, in wool, it alleviates pains in the uterus.
