Summary/Abstract: This paper presents a healing book with a prayer book written by Kosta Radović in 1830, which is kept in the Rarities department of Matica Srpska under the signature RR II 62. The aim of the research is to look at pre-standard language expression at the lexical level and to compose the dictionary of phytonyms represented in this manuscript. As a result, a systematic review of the herbs used for healing is obtained, as well as an overview of the language fund related to their naming. Comparison with older, medieval, medical books, such as the Hodoški zbornik and the Hilandarski tipik, seeks to shed light on the potential association of this manuscript with works of a similar purpose in the earlier period, using as criteria the organization of the text, the number and identity of the plant species, their names and medicinal actions attributed to them.
