【释名】甜藤(《嘉祐本草》)、感藤。

【释名】大瓠藤
【集解】陶隐基(注:此处原文似缺字或指代前人,结合语境通常指引用前人记载,但根据下文“曰”及内容,实为引用顾微等记载,此处依原文结构翻译)说:按刘欣期《交州记》记载:含水藤生长在岭南及各海边山谷。形状像葛藤,叶子像枸杞。多长在路旁,行人缺水时就吃这种藤,所以以此命名。
陈藏器说:越南、朱鸢、儋耳等无水的地方,都种植大瓠藤,取其汁液使用。藤蔓形状像葫芦,折断后水流出,饮用清甜美味。
李时珍说:顾微《广州记》记载:水藤,离地一丈高,折断后能再生,根部直到地下的水源都不枯竭。山中行走口渴时,折断取汁饮用。陈氏所说的大瓠藤,大概就是这个东西。

[Name] Da Hu Vine
[Collection and Explanation] [Text implies citation of previous records] said: According to Liu Xinqi's *Jiaozhou Ji*: Han Shui Vine (Water-containing Vine) grows in Lingnan and valley areas near various sea coasts. It resembles kudzu, with leaves like goji berries. It often grows by the roadside; travelers lacking water eat this vine, thus giving it its name.
Chen Cangqi said: In Vietnam, Zhu Yuan, and Dan'er where there is no water, people plant Da Hu Vine to extract its juice. The vine resembles a gourd; when broken, water flows out, which is clear and delicious to drink.
Li Shizhen said: Gu Wei's *Guangzhou Ji* states: Water Vine, growing ten chi above ground, regenerates after being cut, and the root continuously draws water from the earth. When thirsty during mountain travel, one breaks it to drink the juice. The Da Hu Vine mentioned by Mr. Chen is likely this substance.
