Among these a fern, called racci-racci, is used as an emetic ; churccu-churccu, a small wild oxalis, ...is taken as a cure for colds ; chichira, the root of a small crucifer, for rheumatism ; llacua-llacua, a composita, for curing wounds ; quissu, a nettle, used as a purgative ; cata- cata, a valerian, as an antispasmodic ; tami-tami, the root, of a gentian, as a febrifuge; quachanca, a euphorbia, the powdered root of which is taken as a purgative ; hama-hama, the root of a valerian, said to be an excellent specific against epilepsy ; * and many others, the native names of which, with their uses, were gif en me, but I was unacquainted with their botanical names.
