An archaic or obsolete term whose precise meaning is uncertain, possibly related to an old medical or botanical plant name.
This extremely rare word appears in historical texts with unclear etymology; it may derive from Old English or Old French botanical terminology, but its origins are largely lost.
Words like 'eysoge' remind us that massive amounts of human knowledge and vocabulary have simply vanished—somewhere an Elizabethan herbalist knew exactly what this meant, and we'll never recover it!
