ὅσα μὲν οὖν ἐκ ξηρῶν τῶν ῥιζῶν ἡ βοτανῶν χυλίζεται, 4 ἑψόμενα σκευάζεται ὡς ἡ γεντιανή· ὅσα δʼ ἐκ φλοιῶν ὑγρῶν ἢ ῥιζῶν ἢ βοτανῶν ἐκθλιβομένων, ἐν ἡλίῳ συστρέφεται, ὡς προείρηται. οὕτως καὶ ἡ θαψία καὶ μανδραγόρας καὶ ὀμφάκιον καὶ τὰ ὅμοια τούτοις χυλίζεται· λύκιον μέντοι καὶ ἀψίνθιον καὶ ὑποκιστὶς καὶ τὰ ὅμοια τούτοις ἑχόμενα συστρέφεται, ὅνπερ τρόπον προείρηται.
