【释名】箭头草（出自《本草纲目》）、独行虎（出自《本草纲目》）。
【集解】李时珍说：这种植物到处都有。它的叶子像柳叶但更细微，夏天开紫色的花并结出角状果实。生长在平地上的植株茎秆直立；生长在沟壑边的植株则蔓延生长。《普济方》记载：生长在乡村篱笆旁的，夏秋季节开小白花，像铃铛一样倒垂，叶子稍微像木香花的叶子。这与紫花地丁的特征相违背，恐怕是另一种植物。
【气味】味苦、辛，性寒，无毒。
【附方】新收录九首。
黄疸内热：将地丁研成粉末。用酒送服三钱。（出自《乾坤秘韫》）
稻芒粘在咽喉，无法取出：咀嚼箭头草咽下。（同上）

痈疽发背，各种无名肿痛，外贴效果如神：采集三伏天时的紫花地丁草。用白面粉调和，经盐醋浸泡一夜后贴敷患处。
过去有一位尼姑患发背疮，梦中得到此方，几天后就痊愈了。（孙天仁《集效方》）
各种恶疮：取紫花地丁根，晒干，放入罐中燃烧烟雾，对着疮口熏蒸。排出黄水，直到排尽即愈。（《卫生易简方》）
瘰疬疔疮，发背各种肿痛：取紫花地丁根去掉粗皮，与白蒺藜一起研成粉末，用油调和涂抹，效果极佳。（《乾坤秘韫》）
疔疮肿毒：《千金方》记载：用紫花地丁草捣汁服用，即使是重症也有效。杨氏方：用紫花地丁草、葱头、生蜂蜜共同捣烂贴敷。如果是瘤疮，加上新鲜黑牛屎。
[Names] Arrow-leaf Grass (from *Bencao Gangmu*), Lone Tiger (from *Bencao Gangmu*).
[Description] Li Shizhen states: It is found everywhere. Its leaves resemble those of willow but are finer; it bears purple flowers and pod-like fruits in summer. Plants growing on flat ground have erect stems, whereas those growing by ditches or ravines have creeping vines. The *Puji Fang* records that plants growing near village fences bear small white flowers in summer and autumn, hanging down like bells, with leaves slightly resembling those of *Aucklandiae Radix* (Muxiang). This contradicts the characteristics of *Viola yedoensis* (Zihua Diding), suggesting it may be a different species.
[Properties and Flavor] Bitter, acrid, cold, non-toxic.
[Indications] All types of carbuncles and sores (*Yongju*), back abscesses (*Fabei*), hard swellings (*Dingzhong*), scrofula (*Luoli*), unnamed swellings and toxic ulcers (Li Shizhen).
[Prescriptions] Nine new prescriptions.
Jaundice with internal heat: Powdered *Viola yedoensis* (Diding). Take 3 qian with wine. (*Qiankun Miyun*)
Rice awn stuck in the throat, unable to be removed: Chew arrow-leaf grass and swallow. (Same source)
Carbuncles and toxic ulcers: Equal parts of *Viola yedoensis* (Zihua Diding, including roots) and *Xanthii Folium* (Canger Ye). Pound into a paste, add one zhong of wine, stir, and take the juice. (Yang Cheng, *Jingyan Fang*)
Back abscesses and various unnamed swellings, applying externally yields miraculous results: Harvest *Viola yedoensis* during the three dog days (Sanfu). Mix with white flour paste, soak in salt and vinegar overnight, then apply to the affected area.
In the past, a nun suffering from a back abscess received this prescription in a dream and recovered within a few days. (Sun Tianren, *Jixiao Fang*)
All toxic ulcers: Sun-dried roots of *Viola yedoensis*. Place in a jar, burn to produce smoke, and fumigate the ulcer until yellow fluid drains out completely, which indicates cure. (*Weisheng Yijian Fang*)
Scrofula, hard sores, and various swellings on the back: Remove the coarse skin from the roots of *Viola yedoensis*, powder them together with *Tribuli Fructus* (Bai Jili), mix with oil, and apply. Highly effective. (*Qiankun Miyun*)
Hard sores and toxic swellings: *Qianjin Fang* records: Use juice extracted from pounded *Viola yedoensis* for oral administration; even severe cases respond effectively. Yang’s Prescription: Pound *Viola yedoensis*, green onion bulbs, and raw honey together and apply topically. For tumor-like sores, add fresh black cow dung.
Sore throat with swelling and pain (*Houbi*): Leaves of arrow-leaf grass mixed with a little soybean paste, ground into a paste, applied to induce vomiting. (*Puji Fang*)
