infallible_a cure_n for_o all_o disease_n by_o put_v a_o period_n to_o life_n whereby_o i●undeniably_o appear_v that_o the_o chemist_n have_v not_o as_o many_o false_o boast_v by_o his_o art_n

the_o mercy_n of_o god_n and_o goodness_n of_o his_o handmaid_n nature_n it_o be_v also_o to_o be_v consider_v that_o there_o be_v some_o chemical_a preparation_n as_o powder_n and_o the_o like_a

most_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o as_o many_o as_o happen_v to_o be_v well_o after_o the_o take_v they_o do_v attribute_n their_o cure_n to_o these_o silent_a medicine_n however_o this_o i_o will_v be_v bold_a to_o tell_v you_o that_o in_o chemical_a and_o especial_o mineral_n preparation_n it_o be_v a_o very_a difficult_a point_n and_o i_o think_v more_o than_o any_o mortal_a man_n can_v certain_o undertake_v to_o perform_v to_o correct_v allay_v and_o destroy_v the_o have_v of_o saturn_n and_o mars_n and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n preserve_v the_o more_o amiable_a and_o friendly_a virtue_n which_o be_v in_o their_o own_o nature_n so_o very_o subtle_a tender_a and_o fine_a that_o every_o little_a inconveniency_n or_o violence_n wound_v they_o and_o the_o difficulty_n be_v hereby_o further_o increase_v for_o that_o in_o what_o medicine_n soever_o the_o original_a fire_n of_o saturn_n and_o mars_n be_v destroy_v or_o whole_o annihillate_v the_o benign_a property_n can_v no_o long_o subsist_v for_o where_o there_o be_v no_o fire_n there_o be_v no_o light_n for_o the_o fire_n be_v the_o father_n of_o the_o light_n and_o all_o life_n and_o moveability_n stand_v in_o the_o poisonous_a root_n therefore_o the_o artist_n must_v not_o annihilate_v those_o poisonous_a principle_n in_o nature_n for_o they_o be_v the_o very_a original_a of_o every_o life_n but_o his_o work_n be_v to_o correct_v they_o that_o the_o benign_a principle_n and_o heal_a quality_n may_v arise_v and_o tincture_n or_o shine_v through_o they_o that_o so_o their_o strife_n may_v cease_v and_o all_o the_o property_n incorporate_a and_o embrace_v each_o other_o and_o so_o attain_v the_o unity_n and_o then_o such_o a_o medicine_n will_v have_v power_n and_o virtue_n to_o tune_v the_o discord_n of_o nature_n into_o a_o harmony_n and_o allay_v the_o irritated_a poison_n in_o the_o body_n and_o so_o awaken_v and_o strengthen_v the_o dismay_v oil_n and_o fade_a virtue_n and_o so_o the_o cure_n will_v be_v soon_o effect_v thus_o it_o appear_v that_o to_o take_v a_o crude_a poisonous_a mineral_n or_o vegetable_a and_o open_v its_o gross_a body_n and_o correct_v the_o venom_n and_o awaken_v the_o good_a balsamic_a virtue_n that_o so_o they_o may_v predominate_v and_o thing_fw-mi the_o whole_a be_v one_o of_o the_o high_a and_o most_o difficult_a point_n in_o the_o

but_o hard_o to_o render_v it_o better_o for_o its_o virtue_n can_v appear_v till_o the_o poison_n be_v moderate_v which_o must_v be_v do_v by_o the_o artist_n help_v hand_n which_o to_o do_v
