4 βοηθοῦσι δὲ καὶ ναυτίαις σὺν ψυχρῷ ὕδατι πινόμεναι καὶ καρδιωγμοῖς καὶ ἐμπνευματικοῖς ἡπατικοῖς τε καὶ ἰκτερικοῖς καὶ νεφριτικοῖς. ἐναφεψηθεῖσαι δὲ ὕδατι καὶ πυριαθεῖσαι εἰς ἐγκάθισμα φλεγμονὰς μήτρας ἰῶνται· ποιοῦσι καὶ πρὸς τὰς ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς μυδήσεις τῶν βλεφάρων, στύφουσαι καὶ δασύνουσαι τὰς βλεφαρίδας, καθύγροις τε σώμασι διάπασμα· μείγνυνται δὲ καὶ ἀντιδότοις. ἀποτίθενται δὲ εἰς τὰ ὀφθαλμικὰ ἐν ἀγγείῳ καινῷ ἀκωνήτῳ λειοτριβηθεῖσαι σὺν οἴνῳ καὶ ἀναπλασθεῖσαι.
