air_n and_o earth_n be_v unseperable_a my_o son_n know_v this_o that_o mercury_n be_v the_o first_o of_o all_o thing_n for_o before_o time_n there_o be_v water_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n rest_v upon_o the_o water_n but_o what_o be_v that_o water_n the_o water_n of_o the_o cloud_n or_o a_o moisture_n which_o may_v be_v pour_v out_o no_o but_o it_o be_v a_o dry_a dusty_a water_n &_o god_n have_v join_v his_o earth_n unto_o it_o which_o be_v his_o sulphur_n and_o so_o the_o earth_n congeal_v the_o water_n and_o thereof_o spring_v the_o four_o element_n include_v in_o these_o two_o by_o the_o will_n of_o god_n therefore_o mercury_n congeal_v sulphur_n and_o sulphur_n mercury_n neither_o can_v one_o of_o these_o be_v without_o the_o other_o as_o also_o they_o can_v be_v without_o their_o salt_n which_o be_v the_o chief_a mean_n by_o who_o help_n nature_n engender_v and_o bring_v forth_o all_o vegetal_n mineral_n and_o animal_n wherefore_o these_o three_o mercury_n salt_n and_o sulphur_n can_v not_o be_v one_o without_o another_o for_o where_o the_o one_o be_v find_v there_o the_o other_o be_v find_v also_o neither_o be_v there_o any_o thing_n in_o nature_n wherein_o these_o

and_o the_o salt_n be_v drown_v in_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o element_n for_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o the_o salt_n shall_v keep_v they_o unite_v by_o his_o sharpness_n and_o dryness_n notwithstanding_o it_o be_v a_o fly_a spirit_n but_o because_o it_o stick_v in_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o mixture_n and_o be_v overcome_v of_o the_o fatness_n and_o combustible_a oil_n in_o which_o it_o be_v find_v as_o the_o yolk_n within_o the_o white_a of_o the_o egg_n and_o the_o combustible_a oil_n live_v of_o the_o earth_n with_o the_o ●alt_n and_o phece_n and_o the_o salt_n be_v bury_v in_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o phece_n of_o the_o combustible_a oil_n and_o earth_n therefore_o it_o can_v fly_v away_o from_o the_o earth_n but_o by_o great_a force_n of_o fire_n these_o three_o spirit_n whereof_o we_o have_v speak_v be_v say_v first_o to_o be_v separate_v from_o the_o mixture_n of_o the_o element_n which_o be_v the_o soul_n of_o all_o thing_n or_o their_o quintaessence_n which_o hold_v together_o the_o whole_a mixture_n of_o the_o element_n for_o when_o the_o spirit_n be_v go_v cut_v than_o the_o mixture_n be_v dissolve_v by_o itself_o and_o divide_v neither_o be_v there_o need_v of_o fire_n to_o expel_v the_o salt_n from_o the_o earth_n when_o the_o element_n be_v separate_v from_o the_o phece_n then_o be_v the_o salt_n also_o separate_v with_o it_o this_o salt_n be_v unknown_a to_o the_o ignorant_a therefore_o salt_n be_v the_o mean_a between_o the_o gross_a earthly_a part_n and_o the_o three_o fly_a spirit_n rest_v in_o the_o natural_a heat_n that_o be_v the_o taste_n moist_a smell_n and_o colour_n which_o three_o be_v the_o life_n soul_n and_o quintaessence_n of_o every_o thing_n neither_o can_v these_o three_o spirit_n be_v one_o without_o the_o other_o as_o the_o father_n the_o son_n and_o the_o holie-ghost_n be_v one_o yet_o three_o person_n and_o one_o be_v not_o without_o the_o other_o the_o ignorant_a laugh_n neither_o understand_v they_o these_o three_o spirit_n when_o as_o they_o be_v tie_v to_o the_o gross_a earthly_a fix_a part_n and_o be_v make_v subtle_a and_o their_o salt_n be_v join_v and_o mingle_v with_o they_o it_o must_v transform_v they_o all_o together_o and_o fix_v they_o into_o a_o crystalline_a body_n diaphanes_n and_o red_a of_o colour_n whereof_o we_o will_v speak_v hereafter_o he_o that_o know_v not_o this_o salt_n shall_v never_o bring_v any_o to_o pass_v in_o art_n the_o philosopher_n call_v this_o salt_n a_o dry_a water_n and_o a_o lively_a salt_n but_o the_o ignorant_a thought_n they_o mean_v mercury_n but_o the_o philosopher_n call_v the_o three_o spirit_n mercury_n and_o the_o earth_n sulphur_n which_o the_o ignorant_a understand_v not_o either_o of_o they_o can_v not_o be_v without_o the_o other_o neither_o be_v there_o any_o thing_n in_o nature_n in_o which_o these_o three_o be_v not_o and_o they_o be_v so_o mix_v with_o the_o four_o element_n that_o they_o make_v one_o body_n and_o mixture_n whatsoever_o god_n have_v create_v be_v in_o these_o three_o stone_n wherefore_o all_o may_v be_v reduce_v into_o a_o crystalline_a clearness_n by_o art_n give_v by_o god_n unto_o the_o philosopher_n for_o in_o the_o latter_a day_n god_n will_v separate_v all_o the_o unclean_a phece_n and_o corruption_n that_o be_v in_o the_o element_n and_o bring_v they_o to_o a_o crystalline_a clearness_n and_o redness_n of_o a_o carbuncle_n afterward_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o more_o corruption_n but_o they_o shall_v endure_v for_o ever_o do_v you_o think_v that_o all_o

no_o more_o than_o the_o incorruptible_a heaven_n but_o god_n by_o his_o will_n will_v change_v all_o thing_n and_o make_v they_o crystalline_a and_o the_o four_o element_n shall_v be_v perfect_a simple_a and_o fix_v in_o themselves_o and_o they_o shall_v be_v all_o a_o quintaessence_n demonstration_n of_o these_o thing_n may_v be_v make_v here_o on_o earth_n by_o art_n for_o whatsoever_o

the_o quint●essence_n of_o sugar_n collect_v out_o of_o the_o vegetable_a and_o animal_n work_v of_o isacke_n holander_n here_o will_v i_o show_v thou_o a_o great_a secret_a how_o thou_o shall_v
