rosmarinus officinalis, L. Nom.
"The Medicinal Plants of the Philippines"
T. H. Pardo de Tavera
54. Rosemary, rosmarinus; Soverainly Cephalic, and for the Memory, Sight, and Nerves, incomparable: And tho' not us'd in the Leaf with our Sallet furniture, yet the Flowers, a little bitter, are always welcome in Vinegar; but above all, a fresh Sprig or two in a Glass of Wine.
