舌埵山帝之女死。化為怪草。其葉甤成。其華黃色。其實如菟絲。故服怪草者。常媚於人焉。

When the daughter of the Emperor died on Mount Sheduo, she transformed into a strange herb. Its leaves grew in clusters, its flowers were yellow, and its fruit was like dodder seeds. Therefore, those who consume this strange herb are always beloved by people.
