a red oyle most excellent for all inward Hemerodes or issues of bloud and to strengthen the bowels if one drop be mixed with conserue of Roses or Comferie or giueu with wine The filinges of Iron first well washed you shall calcine with the flower of Sulphure or dissolue with strong water then poure on very sharpe vineger and set it on a warme place certain dayes then reuerberate it with an open fire as Arte commaundeth one whole day gathering alwaies the flowres which remaine aboue vntill all be conuerted into a very red and light powder After the same maner you shall make the Balme oyle and Crocus of Copper out of the which with the sowre fleame of vitrioll circulating all artificially you shall draw a blewshing vitrioll whose qualities we haue described in another place Out of Saturne calcined is drawne a sweetish salt in Balneo with distilled vineger powring it so often vppon the Feces vntill it draw no more The menstrew euaporated the salt remayneth in the bottome which by often dissolutions and coagulations is made Christaline and afterward easily dissolued into oyle being set in a moyst place But if you circulate this Christaline salt in a Pelli●●n with the alcoole of wine 15. dayes and after take away the menstrew by distillation and put to new wine and circulate it pu●ting to a fit dose of christaline salte of Tartar you shall make a Balme sweeter then sugar which wil marueilously preuaile against all maligne vlcers and diseases of the eyes Decoct Antimonie made in powder with a capitall lye prepared of Tartar calcined and Sope ashes and quicklime the space of one houre then let it coole pouring vpon it a little Vineger and there will appeare a certaine rednesse swimming vpon which you shall gather then againe let it boyle for one houre or two againe let it coole and gather that which swimmeth vp Doe this so often vntill there appeare no more rednesse For it is the sulphure of Antimonie whiche dried at a softe fire you shall keepe to good vses Mingle Antimonie with sugar and alum and put all into a Retort of glasse make a soft fire for foure or fiue houres afterward increase it and there will come out an oyle red like bloud It is also done with Mercurie sublimate but great heede is to be taken least anie error be committed in the degree of fire Boyle sulphure prepared with oyle of Lynseede with a verie soft fire and it will be like bloud congealed Let the matter coole put it into a Retort and giue it fire and there will distill out of a verie red oyle of sulphure It is also done if you mingle bran with your sulphure and distill it Take of sulphure Viue P. i. with which mingle with a soft fire so much pure vitrioll molten that it may be one body Distill this by a discensorie and there will descend a red oyle into the receiuer If one pound of the flower of sulphure be mixed with two or three pound of oyle of Turpentine in a drye heate the flowres will dissolue into a red oyle Then the menstrew rightly and artificially separated circulate the Rubin of sulphure with the Alcoll of wine eight dayes and you shall haue oyle of sulphure that hath the qualities of the naturall Balme The sowre oyle of sulphure is made of sulphure by setting it on fire and hanging ouer it a Bell or a large glasse head to keepe the vapours which are conuerted into that sowre oyle Put vitrioll beaten into powder into a Cucurbite giuing it a fire of the second degree and there will issue a sowre water which is called the fleame of vitrioll Take the Feces which remaine in the bottome of the vessell which is called Colcothar stampe that and if you mingle flintes with all with a violent fire there will come out a red oile It is also made with the simple Colcothar driuen out with a violent fire three dayes space and the●e will come forth a verie hot oile which is made sweete by circulation with the sp●rit of wine Tartarizated But if the Colcothar be dissolued in warme water and the rednesse in it separated and the water euaporated the Colcothar will remaine sweetish that which remaineth the rednesse being taken away is called Creta Vitrioli But if Vitrioll be drawne by the ninth a Limbeck powring on alwayes the liquor vpon the dead head and after circulating all by the space of eight dayes You shall haue the spirit of Vitrioll verie profitable for many things The fleame of Allum is made like the fleame of Vitrioll But Allum is prepared if the fleame be fiue times powred vpon the Feces out of which it was drawne and distilled last of all driue out all the fleame vntill it be drie Make brine of salt into which cast hot burning stones that they may be imbybbed those stones so imbybbed put into a Retort giuing fire by degrees there will come forth a very hot oyle of salt I said before that there was great force in Butyro Arsenici fixo to cure all venemous and maligne vlcers it is made in this manner Mingle Christaline Arsenick first subblimed with onely Colcothar which doth keepe backe his poison with like waight of salt of Tartar and salt Peter put al into two glasses and fixe it giuing fire the space of xxiiii houres first very gentle then of the highest degree You shall finde the matter very white fixed resembling the colour of Peerles which dissolue in warme water that you may draw the Alcoly from it And the powder which remaineth unbybbe with oile of Tartar or of Talcum which is better drie it at the fire and do this thrise Againe dissolue the matter in warme water that you may take away his salt and there will remaine a very white pouder and fixed which will dissolue in a moist place into a fate oile which is anodinum like butter Out of Talcum rightly and artificially calcined is drawne the spirite with distilled vinegar This is dissolued into a precious oyle being set
