Latine · Mayhoff 1906

Stoebe, quam aliqui pheon vocant, decocta in vino praecipue auribus purulentis medetur, item oculis ictu cruentatis, haemorrhagiae quoque et dysinteriae infusa.

English · Bostock & Riley 1855–57

The stœbe, by some persons known as the “pheos,” boiled in wine, is particularly good for the cure of suppurations of the ears, and for extravasations of blood in the eyes from the effects of a blow. It is employed also in injections for hæmorrhage and dysentery.
