86 Aoonk.--A plant, a yard or more in height, whose leaves are about 2 inches in breadth, and hard like the leaves of the Mocao; its flower is prickly, and its seed very small, even smaller than the Powar, which it resembles. There are two kind: the branches of one red, the other white; both bitter, and promoters of digestion, decreasing mucus and wind, removing flatulent swellings in the stomach or bowels, and pains therein; useful in piles and Psora. 87 Ahmlee.--Called also Buzuroolreshad. 88 Aegoor.--Powerfully astringent and bitter, easy of digestion, beneficial in disorders of blood, bile, mucus, and also in Juzam, an antidote to poison, and strengthening eye sight. P. Shingirff. (Cinnabar?) 89 Aechill.--The name of a reed. 90 Aent.--(Brick.) In P. Khysht. When the seminal secretion is too thin, this is given with success; the older kind is preferred in medicine. In the Tophutul Momeneen and other works, its virtues are described. 91 Padill.--Sometimes called Patill, and another kind denominated Kashta Padill or Kut Padill. Of this also there is another kind, but as the properties of all are the same, I have not particularly distinguished them from each other. It is the flower of an Indian tree, which in size is equal to the Mangoe or Jamin, its pod is 1 1/2 feet long, and 4 fingers in breadth, formed of different layers, and lined with a soft cottony substance. The seed resembles that of the Seriss tree, and its taste is astringent, sweet, and its properties mixed, cool and hot. It is beneficial in swellings of a general nature, in foulness of the blood, in difficulty of breathing, in thirst, nausea, and loss of appetite. Its flowers correct all the natural secretions, and remove bilious laxity of the bowels, and heartburn. The pod relieves hiccup, and corrects bilious and mucous secretions; some have described its properties as cool, and the Dhuntri recommends the first kind, as the one to be preferred for internal use. 92 Pa·.--Sulphur Zinci, a name for Zaje Suffed. It resembles the Shibbi Yemani, but of a more yellow tinge, and less transparent, but its pungency and astringency greater; placed in the fire it becomes sublimed; its nature hot and dry. If a cloth is wetted with its solution, and allowed to dry, and then placed in the vagina, it dries the part, and lessens its diameter. 93 Beekhbans or Beedjbans.--A kind of green bamboo, shot as arrows by the Nepaulese, and which poison the wound they inflict.
