be_v esteem_v by_o thou_o as_o a_o thing_n of_o no_o price_n but_o contrariwise_o he_o that_o endeavour_v by_o riches_n to_o aspire_v unto_o that_o art_n and_o labour_n to_o convert_v it_o to_o the_o

have_v call_v it_o the_o celestial_a bless_a holy_a and_o triune_n universal_a stone_n of_o the_o wise_a man_n but_o now_o the_o cause_n why_o they_o term_v it_o a_o stone_n and_o why_o they_o compare_v it_o to_o a_o stone_n be_v among_o other_o reason_n chief_o this_o when_o the_o matter_n thereof_o do_v at_o the_o beginning_n come_v like_o a_o mineral_n out_o of_o the_o earth_n it_o be_v true_o a_o stone_n and_o then_o again_o because_o this_o matter_n be_v hard_a and_o dry_a because_o also_o it_o be_v beat_v and_o grind_v to_o dust_n like_o a_o stone_n but_o especial_o the_o reason_n be_v this_o if_o it_o be_v divide_v into_o the_o three_o part_n which_o nature_n herself_o have_v conjoin_v then_o be_v it_o necessary_a that_o it_o itself_o be_v again_o digest_v in_o all_o the_o

the_o world_n out_o of_o which_o all_o natural_a thing_n have_v their_o original_n likewise_o that_o it_o be_v of_o a_o wonderful_a and_o singular_a birth_n and_o species_n or_o shape_n and_o that_o it_o have_v a_o unknown_a and_o a_o unsearchable_a nature_n and_o that_o therefore_o it_o be_v neither_o hot_a nor_o dry_a like_o the_o earth_n but_o be_v a_o certain_a perfect_a preparation_n of_o all_o the_o element_n that_o it_o be_v also_o of_o a_o certain_a incorruptible_a body_n which_o can_v be_v touch_v by_o any_o element_n and_o which_o may_v as_o to_o all_o its_o property_n and_o in_o
