For the treatment of quinzy, we find argemonia[1] recommended, in wine; a decoction of hyssop, boiled with figs, used as a gargle; peucedanum,[2] with an equal proportion of sea-calf's rennet; proserpinaca,[3] beaten up in the pickle of the mæna[4] and oil, or else placed beneath the tongue; as also juice of cinquefoil, taken in doses of three cyathi. Used as a gargle, juice of cinquefoil is good for the cure of all affections of the fauces: verbascum,[5] too, taken in wine, is particularly useful for diseases of the tonsillary glands.
