Epilepsy is cured by the root of the panaces which we have spoken1381 of as the “heraclion,” taken in drink with sea-calf’s rennet, the proportions being three parts of panaces and one of rennet. For the same purpose an infusion of plantago1382 is taken, or else betony or agaric, with oxymel, the former in doses of one drachma, the latter in doses of three oboli; leaves of cinquefoil are taken, also, in water. Archezostis1383 is also curative of epilepsy, but it must be taken constantly for a year; root of bacchar,1384 too, dried and powdered, and taken in warm water, in the proportion of three cyathi to one cyathus of coriander; centunculus1385 also, bruised in vinegar, warm water, or honey; vervain, taken in wine; hyssop1386 berries, three in number, pounded and taken in water, for sixteen days consecutively; peucedanum,1387 taken in drink with sea-calf’s rennet, in equal proportions; leaves of cinquefoil, bruised in wine and taken for thirty days; powdered betony, in doses of three denarii, with one cyathus of squill vinegar and an ounce of Attic honey; as also scammony, in the proportion of two oboli to four drachmæ of castoreum.
