217. Pampinus: i.e. foliage of the vine; it is hot and dry. If it be pounded and pig lard be put through it, and it be cooked in an oven and applied as a plaster over the spleen, it will help with its hardness and oppilation. If a pessary be made of it, it will provoke menstruation, the after-birth, and the dead foetus. If powder of the foliage of the vines with lard of hens put through it be applied as a plaster to the cold apostumes, it will help with them.
