Purflane is likewife commended againlt woranes in young children, and is {ingular good eipéi‘ cielly if they be feueriih wirhall, for it both allaies the ouermuch heate, and killeth the wormcs 5 which thing is done through the faltnes mixed therewith, which is not only an enemy to warmest but alfo to putrifaétion. ~

Theleaues of Purflane either raw , or boiled, and eaten as fallades, are good for thofe that gaue great heate in their ftomackes and inward parts, and doe coole and temper the inflame
