A92903	A new light of alchymie: taken out of the fountaine of nature, and manuall experience. To which is added a treatise of sulphur: / written by Micheel Sandivogius: i.e. anagram matically, divi Leschi genus amo. Also nine books of the nature of things, written by Paracelsus, viz. Of the generations growthes conservations life: death renewing transmutation separation signatures of naturall things. Also a chymicall dictionary explaining hard places and words met withall in the writings of Paracelsus, and other obscure authors.

how_o and_o by_o what_o mean_v every_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v preserve_v and_o keep_v from_o hurt_n we_o must_v know_v that_o many_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v preserve_v in_o the_o earth_n and_o

wherefore_o man_n body_n may_v be_v preserve_v from_o all_o manner_n of_o putrefaction_n and_o divers_a disease_n that_o proceed_v from_o putrefaction_n better_a than_o common_a mummy_n mow_fw-mi

rather_o divine_a and_o angelical_a then_o humane_a and_o natural_a i_o desire_v to_o be_v here_o understand_v with_o great_a distinction_n and_o no_o otherwise_o then_o my_o opinion_n be_v and_o

we_o must_v cautious_o consider_v that_o there_o be_v a_o twofold_a death_n twofold_a death_n be_v twofold_a viz._n violent_a and_o voluntary_a the_o one_o can_v raise_v a_o thing_n again_o the_o

account_n of_o resuscitation_n and_o restauration_n of_o thing_n which_o error_n indeed_o of_o they_o be_v not_o the_o least_o and_o indeed_o it_o be_v true_a that_o whatsoever_o die_v or_o perish_v with_o a_o natural_a death_n and_o what_o nature_n mortify_v by_o reason_n of_o her_o predestination_n god_n alone_o can_v raise_v again_o or_o must_v of_o necessity_n be_v do_v by_o his_o command_n so_o whatsoever_o nature_n destroy_v man_n can_v restore_v over_o again_o again_o what_o thing_n may_v be_v raise_v again_o but_o whatsoever_o man_n destroy_v he_o can_v restore_v again_o and_o be_v
