Note 745 — Chapter LVI · DISEASES OF THE FEET[731] THE “PINNE”[732] IN THE FEET
D. C. (Douglas Craven) Phillott translation
Ispand-i sabz, “green (or black) ispand,” is the variety used in medicine: ispand-i zard or isfarza-yi zard, “yellow ispand,” is used to keep off the evil-eye. Ispand is, I am told by an authority, the seed of Peganum Harmala, one of the rue family.
