(Indeed, the flower looks like forget-me-not, which is suitably appropriate, at least in English.)


That's correct, it says "Nepenthes herba cuius..." and references Pliny (Plinius), Homer, and Galen (Galienus), etc.

David, my Latin is pretty minimal, but perhaps this can help...

Nepenthes herba cuius meminit Plinius apud Homerus
Penelope huius succo addito porulis discutit, tristiciam
romiuiny(??). Unde illud Odisseae [Odyssey]
unde bibebant.  Ire Nepenthes
omnis quibus oblivia cure. [crossed out text]

buglossam de qua Galienus
scribit quibus vino inmissa peticie causa sit.
