In this I may have acted wrong, but I did so from the -conviction, that by this method, the names would be more familiar, and -better understood, by the Natives in researches after the different -drugs. <span class="pagenum">[<a id="xd24e617" href="#xd24e617" name= -"xd24e617">iv</a>]</span></p> -<p class="par">I have inserted as many of the systematic names as I -could trace, both from Dr. Fleming’s work, and those of others; -but I regret, that I was not honored in the acquaintance of any -Botanist who could have assisted me with more.</p> -<p class="par">To the youth of the profession, I trust the work may be -acceptable, by leading them to the knowledge, that such medicines are -in existence; and my medical brethren of the higher grades may not deem -further inquiry into the properties of native drugs beneath their -notice.</p> -<p class="par">To the profession at large, then, I beg leave to -dedicate this Translation, with the hope, that they will make due -allowance for all faults, and that some of the more experienced will -favor us with another and better edition.</p> -<p class="par">To my respected friends Messrs. Wilson and Twining, the -profession is indebted, that this little work ever saw light; and -though they are godfathers to none of its errors, yet without their -encouragement and aid, it must have slumbered in oblivion, and remained -as was intended, (after the failure of an attempt on the part of the -translator,) a manual for his own private use. <span class= -"pagenum">[<a id="xd24e626" href="#xd24e626" name= -"xd24e626">v</a>]</span></p> -</div> -</div> -<div id="gloss" class="div1 glossary"><span class="pagenum">[<a href= -"#toc">Contents</a>]</span> -<div class="divHead"> -<h2 class="main">GLOSSARY.</h2> -</div> -<div class="divBody"> -<p class="par first"></p> -<div class="table"> -<table> -<tr> -<td class="cellLeft cellTop">Acouta,</td> -<td class="cellRight cellTop">Herpes.</td> -</tr> -<tr> -<td class="cellLeft">Aruk,</td> -<td class="cellRight">Distilled liquid.</td> -</tr> -<tr> -<td class="cellLeft">Boolbul,</td> -<td class="cellRight">Indian Nightingale.</td> -</tr> -<tr> -<td class="cellLeft">Badgola,</td> -<td class="cellRight">Splenitis.</td> -</tr> -<tr> -<td class="cellLeft">Coir,</td> -<td class="cellRight">Fibrous substance surrounding the Cocoanut.</td> -</tr> -<tr> -<td class="cellLeft">Daad,</td> -<td class="cellRight">Impetigo.</td> -</tr> -<tr> -<td class="cellLeft">Dhats,</td> -<td class="cellRight">Component parts of the human frame.</td> -</tr> -<tr> -<td class="cellLeft">Elaous,</td> -<td class="cellRight">Disease of the Intestines.

very common in Hindostan. -The fruit is about the size of, and very much resembling in shape, a -goat’s kidney, and having the external appearance of an apple. -When ripe, it sometimes retains the green color, but oftener becomes -yellow, or red and yellow.</p> -<p class="par">The virtues ascribed to this tree, are as -follows:—The bruised leaves and young shoots applied to the hair, -expedite its growth, and considerably darken its color.</p> -<p class="par">The bark of the trunk of the tree, and of its roots, is -cooling and astringent; the former powerfully so. The leaves are -astringent, and promote digestion; their ashes styptic.</p> -<p class="par">The young flowers are cool and drying; have a pleasant -aromatic scent, and when taken internally, are cooling and astringent; -recommended for the cure of chronic Gonorrhœa or Gleet, purulent -expectoration, bilious foulness of the blood and boils. The young -unripe fruit has much acidity, and is drying; moderately used, it -increases all the animal secretions, and is beneficial in chronic -affections of the liver; it promotes appetite, and is lithonthriptic. -The fruit, when ripe, is sweet, cooling, <a id="xd24e2121" name= -"xd24e2121"></a>mucilaginous and heavy, tending to allay thirst, and -useful in nervous affections; strengthens the system, restores impaired -appetite, (is said to moderate an increased secretion of bile,) and -improves the complexion. The fruit is of various sizes, from a few -drachms to a <span class="pagenum">[<a id="pb2" href="#pb2" name= -"pb2">2</a>]</span>pound weight; but it is usually met with weighing -about 4 ounces. It becomes acid about a month after the fall of the -flower, in which state it is used as preserves, such as jellies, -pickles, &c.; at this time, too, it is used as seasoning for -<i>Pilaus</i>, and other dishes; for when the stone or kernel has -become hard, it is no longer fit for these purposes. When the fruit has -attained its full growth, and when nearly ripe, it is to be taken from -the tree, and put into dry grass, straw, or the leaves of the Palass -tree, and there allowed to become ripe; this process deprives it of all -acidity, and also prevents the formation of a resinous gum, which it -contracts when allowed to ripen on the tree, and which renders it too -pungent to be eaten with relish.</p> -<p class="par">The fruit is in perfection in the hot winds, and when -the rains commence, it ripens very fast; before the cold weather it is -usually out of season.</p> -<p class="par">There are some trees that blossom the whole year, and -some few that even produce fruit; but instances of this are very -rare.</p> -<p class="par">There is a variety of this tree on which the fruit is -sweet from its first formation; this requires to be used early, -otherwise it will in all probability become a prey to insects.</p> -<p class="par">Some trees produce fruit only once in 4 years. In -general, it produces fruit in abundance every second year, and less in -the alternate year; some are even perfectly barren every alternate -year.</p> -<p class="par">There is a mode of manuring this tree, which it is said -improves the flavour of the fruit greatly; this is mixing the juice of -its fruit with milk, and pouring it over the roots. It is also said to -be possible to communicate the flavor of any particular fruit to the -mangoe, by its expressed juice being made use of, as an application to -the roots of the tree.</p> -<p class="par">The kernel of the mangoe, roasted, is pleasant to the -taste, and grateful to the stomach; it is much recommended in laxities -of the bowels, and strengthens the <i>primæ viæ</i>; water -drank after having eat of this kernel, seems to possess a flavor -peculiarly excellent. The usual mode of preparing them, is to allow -them to remain exposed to the rains, till the shell shall have become -decayed; by this process it is deprived of any heating or irritating -property. <span class="corr" id="xd24e2144" title= -"Source: Perpared">Prepared</span> in this manner, and kept a short -time in lime juice, taken out, <span class="pagenum">[<a id="pb3" href= -"#pb3" name="pb3">3</a>]</span>bruised and mixed with salt, fennel, -&c, it is much extolled for strengthening the stomach, and -promoting digestion.</p> -<p class="par">If preserved for 3 years, pounded, and swallowed to the -quantity of a tolah, with a little water, no medicine is preferable for -strengthening bowels habitually lax.</p> -<p class="par">In the acid state, the fruit is very prejudicial to -those who have any disorders in their teeth, a cough, an affection of -the chest, or who are subject to cholicky pain in the bowels, but very -beneficial when used in irritable habits. The best method of using them -is this. The acid unripe fruit, after the outer rind has been -<span class="corr" id="xd24e2153" title= -"Corrected by author from: pealed">peeled</span> off, is to be cut into -thin slices, and infused for some hours in water; this water so -impregnated, is to be drained off, mixed with a sufficient proportion -of sugar, and used as sherbet. It produces a great relish for food, and -is in other respects beneficial. The same effects are produced by the -unripe fruit, being roasted and allowed to remain in water, as above -mentioned. It is recommended in paralysis, from <i>coup de vent</i>. -Many physicians have considered the mangoe to be of a cooling nature, -but, in my opinion, it is heating in all its stages. The Yunani -physicians have stated the ripe fruit to be hot in the 2d, and dry in -the 3d degree.</p> -<p class="par">Its virtues may be described in a few words. It -strengthens the system, gives tone to the kidnies<a id="xd24e2163" -name="xd24e2163"></a>, restores impaired appetite, &c. It is -aperient, improves the complexion, beneficial in piles, an useful -deobstruent, braces and increases the bulk of the solids, and removes -nervous affections. In some of these disorders I am inclined to doubt -of its good effects, but such virtues are attributed to it. It is -recommended, in order to prevent any bad effects from the fruit in its -unripe state, that raisins be <span class="corr" id="xd24e2165" title= -"Source: eat">eaten</span> with it. Hukeem Alwee Khan, a man of -eminence in his profession in the reign of Mahommed Shah, says, that if -ever this fruit disagreed with the system, it must have been eaten when -unripe or green.</p> -<p class="par">I had occasion to attend a gentleman of very high rank, -who laboured under dropsy; I cured him of the disease, but 3 years -afterwards, having <span class="corr" id="xd24e2170" title= -"Source: eat">eaten</span> a large quantity of mangoes, the disease -returned, and I have observed the same effects in other cases.</p> -<p class="par">Hukeem Alli Mughphoor, physician, states, that -influenced by the resemblance of the mangoe to the human kidney, he -concluded <span class="pagenum">[<a id="pb4" href="#pb4" name= -"pb4">4</a>]</span>that it must be beneficial in that organ, (disorders -of;) he therefore prescribed it in a case of hectic fever, arising from -diseased kidney, and completely cured the disease. In this I differ -from him entirely; he must have mistaken the nature of the complaint, -for a remedy given expressly for the cure of a disease in the kidney, -could <i>not</i>, at the same time, have removed the fever, excepting -appropriate medicines had been administered along with it!!</p> -<p class="par">The best mangoes are those having a thin juice, sweet -and free from fibres; and they ought to be cooled in water or in ice, -especially during the hot weather. It is preferable to use the juice of -the fruit without eating any of the fibrous parts; a neglect of this -may produce various disorders, such as indigestion, cholicky pains, -&c. It is very common to eat the expressed juice, mixed with sugar -and other things, with rice, or with bread, but this is great -imprudence; for in the most healthy subjects it may produce nausea, and -general uneasiness.</p> -<p class="par">Should any ill effects follow the use of the mangoe, -milk, or the kernel of the fruit, will be found a corrector. My -father’s opinion is, that these are not the only remedies; for if -it produces any heating effect, curdled milk will give relief, or even -cold water, or acidulated sherbet, and he himself was always in the -habit of using the <i>Phalsa</i> sherbet on these occasions.</p> -<p class="par">Should cholic be produced, the Oil of Almonds or other -sweet oils, will remove the complaint; and a diarrhœa is to be -cured by the use of the kernel; and a swelling of the abdomen, by milk, -in which a little ginger has been mixed; or even ginger by itself will -have the effect</p> -<p class="par">A substitute for mangoe, as a medicine, may be had in -Chobe Cheenee.</p> -<p class="par">In general, it will be adviseable to abstain from the -use of the mangoe, till 2 or 3 showers of rain have fallen; but those -of a cold phlegmatic or melancholic temperament do not require to be so -particular.</p> -<p class="par">Those for whose complaints mangoes have been -recommended, have in a few months derived great benefit from their use, -by eating them with camel’s milk. There are many kinds of this -fruit, and their names are as various; but the stronger the scent, the -<span class="pagenum">[<a id="pb5" href="#pb5" name= -"pb5">5</a>]</span>more effectual they are as a medicine.

I then asked him whether that young girl was his daughter; he -laughing answered that she was his wife, and that he had three others -equally young. I was somewhat surprised at this, and asked him if this -was not too many for him; he replied no! More and more astonished, I -asked him if this was really the case; he avowed it to be so. I then -questioned him how he came to be endowed with so much strength, and how -old he was; he told me that his age was 110 years, and related the -following facts: That when 50 years’ old he had already become -aged and feeble, and was so much decayed in constitution, that he -seldom rose from his bed, and when he did so, was obliged to support -himself on a crutch. That a fakeer passing that way observed his feeble -state, and feeling compassion for his helpless situation, asked him -what ailed him: he replied, nothing; but that old age had come upon -him. The fakeer then gave him a medicine which he had taken ever since, -with an injunction to abstain from all acids: this he had done, and -that the effect was such as I saw. He likewise told me that he had a -son nearly 80 years of age, who had also used the fakeer’s -prescription, and who was much stouter and more healthy in every -respect than he.</p> -<p class="par">“Astonished at this relation, I procured the -receipt, and thus hand it down to posterity.</p> -<p class="par">“Take the white roots of a full grown, healthy -Sembill tree, which is soft; cut them in pieces, dry them in the shade, -and reduce them to a powder: sift it very fine, with equal parts of -sugar, and over the fire, form it into an electuary: of this 5 direms -are to be eaten daily, and no acid to be used.</p> -<p class="par">“To this the old man swore, and brought his son -and introduced him to me to prove the truth of his story.
