Chebuli: they are cold and dry. They are colder than the citrini. Because they are conducive in the least portion towards bitterness, they are the least laxative and the most costive. Through their properties they purge choler and melancholia. According to Constantinus and Avicenna they purge melancholia and phlegm and they astrict in some way the flux of the stomach. For that reason they are suitable primarily for quartan fever, and secondarily for tertian fever; and when roasted and administered with extract of yarrow they are suitable for the discharge from piles, i.e. hemorrhoids. Since they clear off choler they are for that reason suitable for blindness and weakness of eyesight caused by the nature of the phlegm. It is proper to make a conditement of them with syrup of violets. Whether administered in draught or in pills their dosage is the same as for myrobalani citrini.
