【释名】婆罗勒。
时珍曰∶婆罗得,梵言重生果也。
【集解】 曰∶婆罗得

(《别录》下品)
【释名】榉柳(《衍义》)、鬼柳。
时珍曰∶其树高举,其木如柳,故名。山人讹为鬼柳。郭璞注《尔雅》作柜柳,云似柳,

【集解】弘景曰∶榉树山中处处有之。皮似檀、槐,叶如栎、槲。
人多识之。
恭曰∶所在皆有,多生溪涧水侧。叶似樗而狭长。树大者连抱,高数仞,皮极粗浓,殊
不似檀。
宗 曰∶榉木,今人呼为榉柳。其叶谓柳非柳,谓槐非槐。最大者,木高五、六丈,合
二、三人抱。湖南北甚多,然亦不材也,不堪为器,嫩皮取以缘栲栳及箕唇。
时珍曰∶榉材红紫,作箱、案之类甚佳。郑樵《通志》云∶榉乃榆类而 烈,其实亦如
榆钱之状。乡人采其叶为甜茶。

叶
【气味】苦,冷,无毒。
【主治】 贴火烂疮,有效(苏恭)。治肿烂恶疮,盐捣 之
(引自宋代《开宝本草》)
【释名】婆罗勒。
李时珍说:婆罗得,是梵语中“重生果”的意思。
【集解】
李时珍说:据王焘《外台秘要》记载:婆罗勒形状像蓖麻子,但用指甲掐它,就会有汁液流出。就是这种植物。
【气味】辛味,温性,无毒。
【主治】冷气积聚成块,温暖中焦,补益腰肾,破除癥瘕积聚,可使胡须头发变黑(出自陈藏器)。
【附方】新增一方。
拔除白发使生黑发:婆罗勒十颗(去皮,取汁),熊脂二两,白马膏(炼过)一两,生姜(炒)一两,母丁香半两,将后两味药研为细末,与前面混合均匀。每次拔掉白发后点涂此药,搓擦使其渗入皮肤,即可长出黑发。这是严中丞所用的方子。(出自孟诜《近效方》)
(引自《名医别录》下品)
【释名】榉柳(出自《本草衍义》)、鬼柳。
李时珍说:这棵树高大挺拔,木材像柳树,所以得名。山中人误称为鬼柳。郭璞注释《尔雅》时写作柜柳,说它像柳树,树皮可以煮水饮用。
【集解】陶弘景说:榉树在山中到处都有。树皮像檀木和槐树,叶子像栎树和槲树。人们大多认识它。
苏恭说:各地都有,多生长在溪涧水边。叶子像臭椿但更狭长。大树需两人合抱,高达数仞,树皮非常粗糙浓厚,一点也不像檀木。
寇宗奭说:榉木,现在人称为榉柳。它的叶子说是柳不像柳,说是槐不像槐。最大的树高五、六丈,需两三人合抱。湖南北地区很多,但也不是良材,不能用来制作器具,嫩皮取来用于编织筐篮的边缘。
李时珍说:榉木材质呈红紫色,制作箱子、案桌等非常适宜。郑樵《通志》说:榉属于榆树一类而木质猛烈,果实也像榆钱的样子。乡人采集它的叶子做甜茶。
【修治】
雷敩说:凡使用不要选用三、四年的,因为效力不足,应选用生长二十年以上的为好。剥去粗皮,切成细丝蒸制,从巳时到未时,取出焙干使用。
【气味】苦味,大寒性,无毒。
【主治】流行性头痛,热邪结聚在肠胃(出自《名医别录》)。夏天煎服,可去除热邪(陶弘景)。民间常用煮汁服用,治疗水肿,止痢疾(苏恭)。安胎,止血(原文此处似有缺漏,依文意补全逻辑,但严格翻译仅译出可见部分:安胎,止……)
【附方】旧方一个,新方四个。
全身水肿:榉树皮煮汁,每日饮用。(出自《太平圣惠方》)。
毒瓦斯攻入腹部,手足肿痛:榉树皮,配合槲皮煮汁,煎至如饴糖般浓稠,用桦皮煮的浓汁化开饮用。(出自《肘后备急方》)。
蛊毒导致便血:榉皮一尺,芦根五寸,水二升,煮取一升,一次性服下。会使蛊虫排出。(出自《千金方》)。
小儿痢疾便血:梁州产的榉皮二十分(炙烤),犀角十二分,水三升,煮取一升,分三次服用直至痊愈。(出自《古今录验》方)。
飞血赤眼:榉皮(去粗皮,切碎)二两,古钱七文,水一升半,煎取七合,去渣后趁热洗眼,每日两次。(出自《圣济总录》)。

(Song Dynasty *Kaibao Bencao*)
[Names] Bolale.
Li Shizhen stated: "Bolade" is the Sanskrit term for "fruit of rebirth."
[Collected Explanations]
Li Shizhen stated: According to Wang Tao's *Waitai Miyao*, Bolale resembles castor seeds; however, when scratched with a fingernail, juice exudes. This is that plant.
[Properties and Flavor] Pungent, Warm, Non-toxic.
[Indications] Cold qi accumulation forming masses, warming the Middle Jiao, tonifying the waist and kidneys, breaking up abdominal masses (Zhangji), and dyeing eyebrows and hair black (Chen Cangqi).
[Attached Prescriptions] One new prescription.
To remove white hair and promote black growth: Ten pods of Bolale (peeled, juice extracted), two liang of bear fat, one liang of white horse grease (refined), one liang of ginger (stir-fried), and half a liang of mother clove. Grind the latter two into powder and mix evenly. After plucking the white hairs, apply this mixture and rub it into the skin; black hair will grow. This is the formula used by Censor Yan Zhongcheng. (From Meng Shen's *Jin Xiao Fang*)
(*Mingyi Bielu*, Lower Grade)
[Names] Juliu (*Bencao Yanyi*), Guiliu.
Li Shizhen stated: The tree stands tall, and its wood resembles willow, hence the name. Mountain people erroneously call it Guiliu. Guo Pu's annotation of *Erya* writes it as Guilou, stating it resembles willow, and its bark can be boiled for drinking.
[Collected Explanations] Tao Hongjing stated: Julu trees are found everywhere in the mountains. The bark resembles sandalwood and locust, and the leaves resemble oak and hickory. Most people recognize them.
Su Gong stated: They are present everywhere, often growing by streams and ravines. The leaves are similar to ailanthus but narrower and longer. Large trees require two people to embrace and reach several zhang in height. The bark is extremely thick and rough, bearing no resemblance to sandalwood.
Kou Zongshi stated: Julu wood is now called Juliu by people. Its leaves are neither truly willow nor locust. The largest trees are five or six zhang high and require two or three people to embrace. They are abundant in Hunan and Hubei, but they are not considered fine timber, unsuitable for making vessels; the tender bark is used for edging baskets and winnowing trays.
Li Shizhen stated: Julu wood has a reddish-purple hue and is excellent for making chests and tables. Zheng Qiao's *Tongzhi* states: Julu belongs to the elm family but has a fierce nature, and its fruit resembles elm coins. Locals harvest its leaves to make sweet tea.
[Preparation]
Lei Xiao stated: Do not use three- or four-year-old trees as they lack potency; those grown for over twenty years are superior. Peel off the coarse bark, cut into fine shreds, steam from Si hour to Wei hour, then dry in the sun for use.
[Properties and Flavor] Bitter, Greatly Cold, Non-toxic.
[Indications] Epidemic headache, heat accumulation in the stomach and intestines (*Mingyi Bielu*). Boiled and drunk in summer to clear heat (Tao Hongjing). Commonly used as a decoction to treat edema and stop dysentery (Su Gong). Calms the fetus, stops bleeding...
[Attached Prescriptions] One old, four new.
Generalized edema: Decoct Julu tree bark and drink daily. (*Taiping Shenghui Fang*).
Toxic vapors attacking the abdomen, swelling and pain in hands and feet: Decoct Julu tree bark with hickory bark, reduce to a syrup-like consistency, and dissolve in a strong decoction of birch bark. (*Zhouhou Beiji Fang*).
Gu poison causing bloody stool: One chi of Julu bark, five cun of reed rhizome, two sheng of water. Boil to one sheng and take at once. The gu parasite should be expelled. (*Qianjin Fang*).
Pediatric dysentery with blood: Twenty fen of Liangzhou Julu bark (roasted), twelve fen of rhinoceros horn, three sheng of water. Boil to one sheng and divide into three doses until cured. (*Gujin Luyan* formula).
Flying blood red eyes: Two liang of Julu bark (coarse bark removed, chopped), seven ancient coins, one and a half sheng of water. Decoct to seven ge, strain, and wash the eyes while hot, twice daily. (*Shengji Zonglu*).
Leaves
[Properties and Flavor] Bitter, Cold, Non-toxic.
[Indications] Applied topically to fire burns/ulcers, effective (Su Gong). Treats swollen, ulcerating malignant sores; crush with salt...
