【草蒿】
味苦,性寒。主治疥疮、搔抓引起的结痂瘙痒。治疗恶性的疮疡。杀灭虱子,清除骨骼间残留的热邪。明目。又名青蒿,又名方溃。生长在川泽之地。
早春阳气升发之时,三秋余气未尽。它邻近松桧的香气,与蓬草藜草群生在一起。美好的诗句咏叹鹿鸣,(其气味)含有令人厌恶的气息。庚伏元辰之日,悬挂在庭院中作为食物(或辟邪之用)。
李时珍说:青蒿最早获得春季木行少阳之气。《梦溪笔谈》记载:这种蒿颜色深青,如同松桧的颜色。深秋时节其他的蒿都变黄了,只有这种蒿依然青翠。《礼记》提到藜、莠、蓬、蒿一同兴起。《诗经》说:“呦呦鹿鸣,食野之蒿。”韩保升说:它的气味似乎带有臭味,所以名为“臭蒿”(注:原文此处可能有脱字或通假,通常指青蒿气味特殊)。《月令通纂》记载:伏天内庚日,采摘青蒿悬挂于门庭以辟邪。冬至和元旦将其研末服用,也很好。
【旋复花】
味咸,性温。主治气机郁结。胁下胀满。惊悸。消除水饮。去除五脏间的寒热。补益中气,降逆气。又名金沸草,又名戴椹。生长在川谷之地。
菊花黄柳叶绿,善于在庚日之前开花。花朵旋转重叠,覆盖下方如铜钱般圆润。金黄的花瓣垂滴,靠近水边溅起水声。香气芬芳传入鼻观。眼睛忌讳长时间凝视边缘。
苏颂说:叶子像柳根一样细,六月开花像菊花,深黄色。《尔雅》称其为“盗庚”。李时珍说:庚属金。夏季开黄花,是盗窃金气的表现。寇宗奭说:花朵圆形且向下覆盖,所以名叫旋复。《群芳谱》称其为叠罗金。李时珍说:花形像金钱菊,生长在水泽边。民间传说露水滴滴落下就能生长,所以名叫滴滴金。赵孟頫的诗写道:“妙香清鼻观。”《酉阳杂俎》记载:李卫公说嗅闻其花会损害眼睛。《庄子》中提到:“延缘苇间。”
【藜芦】
味辛,性寒。主治蛊毒。咳嗽气逆。泄泻痢疾。肠中寄生虫。头部疮疡。疥疮搔痒。恶性疮疡。杀灭各种蛊毒。去除死肌。又名葱苒。生长在山谷之中。
叶片宽大根部微小,相连处节短。外层包裹如棕心,内部洁白憨厚如葱管。景仰山之高,迟回水之缓。引发呕吐和喷嚏,顿时驱除风邪和瘴气。
吴普说:叶片大根部小,相连。李时珍说:黑色者称为藜芦,因为包裹黑皮而得名。根部际似葱,俗名葱管藜芦。北方人称之为憨葱。苏颂说:初生的苗叶像棕心,又像葱白。这有两种,生长在高山上的为佳。一种叫水藜芦,生长在溪涧石头上,不作为中药使用。
凡是服用许量的藜芦,就会引起严重的呕吐。又能通达头顶,使人打喷嚏。李时珍说:它是吐风痰的药物。
