A medicament is called a “leg,” if it originates from an auspicious place and is gathered on an auspicious day. It should be of the proper measure, pleasing to the mind, full of odor, color and sap. It should have the particular virtue of subduing the “humors” of the body when they are “incensed.” It should not cause languor, nor harm when the disease grows worse, and should be administered at the proper time, after having been duly inspected. - [Previous: c7.270](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.zimmer-1948.c7.270) - [Next: c7.272](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.zimmer-1948.c7.272) - [Up: c7](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.zimmer-1948.c7) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.zimmer-1948.c7.271](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.zimmer-1948.c7.271) · Pramāṇa
