paragraph 81

DICTO DE MEDICINIS EVACUANTIBUS phlegma dicendum est de medicinis evacuantibus melancolicam:: i.e. having spoken of the medicines which purge phlegmatic humor, it is meet to speak of the medicines which purge melancholia primarily; and so first of all of yera Rufini31 which purges melancholia primarily. For that reason it effectively relieves those who have elephancy, morphew, or scabies caused by salt or by inflammatory phlegm.
