Ord. Labiatae. Sex. Syst. Diandria Monogynia. Sage leaves, Salvia (Ph. U. S.), have a peculiar, aromatic odour, and warm, aromatic, bitterish taste. Their virtues depend upon an essential oil. They are tonic, stimulant, and carminative. In the form of a weak infusion, Sage is occasionally used as a diluent, and as a wash for sore mouth.
