唐本薰陆香，微温。去恶气，恶疮。出天竺国及邯郸。似松脂，黄白色，天竺者多白，
邯郸者夹绿色，香不甚。梅师方治齿虫痛不可忍。嚼薰陆香咽其汁立瘥。
微温。疗风水毒肿，去恶气，疗霍乱，心痛。
陶隐居云∶此皆，合香家要用，不正入药。唐本注云∶鸡舌树，叶及皮并似栗，花如梅
花，子似枣核。此雌树也。不入香用。其雄树虽花不实，采花酿之以成香。出昆仑及交爱以

外台秘要∶疗龋齿方∶煮鸡舌香汁，含之瘥。又方∶疗唇舌忽生疮。鸡舌香末，以绵裹
含之瘥。抱朴子，鸡舌香、黄连、乳汁煎，治目中之病。应邵汉官侍中，年老口臭，帝赐鸡
舌香含之。沈存中笔谈∶子集灵苑方论鸡舌香，以为丁香母，盖出陈氏《拾遗》。今细考之，
尚未然
按《齐民要术》云∶鸡舌香，世以其似丁子，故一名丁子香，即今丁香是也。日华子云∶
鸡
治口气，至今方书为然。又古方五香连翘汤用鸡舌香。千金五香连翘汤无鸡舌香，却有丁香
，此最为明验。新补本草又出丁香一条，盖不曾深考也。今世所用鸡舌香，乃乳香中得之，
大如山茱萸，锉开中如柿核，略无气味，用以治疾殊乖谬。
气味微温。治疗风水引起的毒肿，去除体内的恶气及潜伏的尸疰（一种慢性消耗性疾病）。
陶弘景说：这是合香家制作香料时必需用的材料，并不正式作为药物使用。《唐本草》注解说：形状像白胶。出产于天竺国、单于国。臣禹锡等人谨慎地按《南方草木状》记载：出产于大秦国。在海边，自然生长着大树在沙土中，盛夏时节树胶流出到沙地上。夷人采集它。
《唐本草》记载薰陆香，气味微温。去除恶气，治疗恶疮。出产于天竺国及邯郸。形状像松脂，颜色黄白，天竺产的较多白色，邯郸产的夹杂绿色，香气不浓。梅师方治疗齿虫痛难以忍受。咀嚼薰陆香咽下其汁液，立刻痊愈。
陶弘景说：这些都是合香家必需用的，并不正式入药。《唐本草》注解说：鸡舌树，叶子和树皮都像栗树，花像梅花，果实像枣核。这是雌树。不入香料使用。雄树虽然开花不结果，采集花朵酿造而成香料。出产于昆仑及交爱以南。
（此处原文有脱漏或错简，结合上下文推测意为）放入口中，使身体散发香气。《齐民要术》说：世俗之人因为它形状像丁子，所以称为丁子香。
《外台秘要》记载治疗龋齿的方子：煮鸡舌香的汁液，含漱后痊愈。又一方：治疗嘴唇舌头突然生疮。用鸡舌香粉末，用棉包裹含在口中即愈。《抱朴子》记载，鸡舌香、黄连、乳汁煎煮，治疗眼睛中的疾病。应邵《汉官仪》记载，汉代侍中官员年老口臭，皇帝赐给鸡舌香让他含服。沈括《笔谈》记载子集《灵苑方论》关于鸡舌香，认为它是丁香的母本，这出自陈氏《拾遗》。现在仔细考证，尚且不是这样。
按照《齐民要术》记载：鸡舌香，世人因为它形状像丁子，所以又名丁子香，就是现在的丁香。日华子说：鸡舌香治疗口气（口臭），至今医方书都认为是这样。另外古方五香连翘汤中使用鸡舌香。《千金方》中的五香连翘汤没有鸡舌香，却有丁香，这是最明显的证据。新补充的本草又列出丁香一条，大概是没有深入考证的缘故。现在世间所用的鸡舌香，是从乳香中得到的，大小像山茱萸，切开中间像柿核，几乎没有气味，用来治病非常荒谬错误。
Nature: Slightly warm. Treats toxic swelling caused by wind-water, removes foul qi and latent *shizhu* (a chronic wasting disease).
Tao Hongjing stated: This is essential for perfumers making incense blends, but is not formally used as a medicinal herb. The commentary of the *Tang Bencao* notes: It resembles white resin. It originates from Tianzhu (India) and Shanyu. Minister Yuxi and others carefully noted according to the *Nanfang Caomu Zhuang*: It originates from Daqin (Rome/Byzantium). On the seashore, large trees naturally grow in the sand; in midsummer, tree gum flows out onto the sand. Barbarians collect it.
The content of the *Tujing* is detailed under the entry for Chenxiang (Aquilaria Wood).
The *Tang Bencao* records Xunluxiang (Frankincense), nature slightly warm. Removes foul qi, treats malignant sores. Originates from Tianzhu (India) and Handan. Resembles pine resin, yellowish-white; those from Tianzhu are mostly white, those from Handan have greenish tints, and the fragrance is not strong. Meishi Fang treats unbearable toothache caused by tooth worms. Chew Xunluxiang and swallow its juice for immediate recovery.
Nature: Slightly warm. Treats toxic swelling caused by wind-water, removes foul qi, treats Huoluan (cholera-like disorder), and heart pain.
Tao Hongjing stated: These are all essential for perfumers, but are not formally used as medicines. The commentary of the *Tang Bencao* notes: The Jitexiang tree has leaves and bark resembling the chestnut tree, flowers like plum blossoms, and fruits resembling jujube pits. This is the female tree. It is not used in incense blends. The male tree blooms but does not bear fruit; its flowers are collected and fermented to produce incense. It originates from Kunlun and areas south of Jiaoai.
[Text gap/corruption here, inferred context] Placed in the mouth, it makes the body fragrant. The *Qimin Yaoshu* states: Common people call it Dingzi Xiang because it resembles a clove bud.
The content of the *Tujing* is detailed under the entry for Chenxiang (Aquilaria Wood).
The *Waitai Miyao* records a formula for treating dental caries: Boil the juice of Jitexiang and hold it in the mouth for recovery. Another formula: For sudden sores on the lips and tongue. Use powder of Jitexiang, wrap in cotton, and hold in the mouth for recovery. The *Baopuzi* records decocting Jitexiang with Huanglian (Coptis Rhizome) and milk to treat eye diseases. Ying Shao’s *Han Guan Yi* records that an elderly official of the Han Dynasty侍中 (Attendant Gentleman) had bad breath, and the Emperor granted him Jitexiang to hold in his mouth. Shen Kuo’s *Bitan* records Zi Ji’s *Lingyuan Fang Lun* on Jitexiang, considering it the mother of Dingxiang (Clove), which comes from Chen Shi’s *Shiyi*. Upon careful examination, this is still not accurate.
According to the *Qimin Yaoshu*: Jitexiang is called Dingzi Xiang by the world because it resembles a clove bud; it is exactly what is now known as Dingxiang (Clove). Rihuazi stated: Jitexiang treats halitosis (bad breath); medical formularies to this day agree. Furthermore, the ancient formula Wuxiang Lianqiao Tang uses Jitexiang. The Wuxiang Lianqiao Tang in the *Qianjin Fang* lacks Jitexiang but contains Dingxiang, which is the most clear evidence. The newly supplemented Bencao added a separate entry for Dingxiang, likely due to a lack of deep investigation. What is currently used as Jitexiang in the world is obtained from Ruxiang (Olibanum/Frankincense); it is as large as Cornus officinalis fruit, cut open reveals a pit like a persimmon seed, has almost no odor, and using it to treat diseases is highly absurd and erroneous.
