A description of the experience
Gerard
'It is good for shortnesse of breathe and an old cough, and for such as cannot breathe unless they hold their neckes upright......The root of Elecampane is with good success mixed with counterpoisons, it is a remedy against the biting of serpents, it resisteth poison. It is good for them that are bursten and troubled with cramps and convulsions.'
