they_o can_v not_o by_o any_o preparation_n be_v reduce_v to_o medicinal_a use_n metal_n and_o all_o mineral_n be_v endue_v and_o possess_v with_o their_o own_o incomprehensible_a spirit_n in_o which_o the_o power_n and_o virtue_n of_o all_o their_o possible_a effect_n consist_v for_o whatsoever_o be_v without_o spirit_n want_v life_n and_o contain_v in_o itself_o no_o vivify_a virtue_n therefore_o you_o be_v to_o know_v that_o in_o antimony_n also_o there_o be_v a_o spirit_n which_o effect_n whatsoever_o be_v in_o it_o or_o can_v proceed_v from_o it_o in_o a_o invisible_a way_n
