Nettle
On wasteland, pastures and in hedges, nettle is
found in plenty. They are a most potent herb with many qualities
compensating for the strung fingers. The nettle is widely used to
treat rheumatism and poor circulation, to cure bronchitis, to reduce
the risk of haemorrhages and dispel melancholia. The nettle leaves
may be boiled and then eaten like green vegetables. |
