A86029	A description of new philosophical furnaces, or A new art of distilling, divided into five parts. Whereunto is added a description of the tincture of gold, or the true aurum potabile; also, the first part of the mineral work. Set forth and published for the sakes of them that are studious of the truth. / By John Rudolph Glauber. Set forth in English, by J.F. D.M.; Furni novi philosophici. English.	Glauber, Johann Rudolf, 1604-1670.; French, John, 1616-1657.	1651 (1651)	Wing G846; Thomason E649_3; ESTC R202215	318,170	477

have_v come_v my_o experience_n neither_o doubt_v i_o but_o by_o it_o to_o obtain_v that_o universal_a salamander_n which_o live_v in_o the_o fire_n these_o thing_n which_o i_o write_v be_v true_a and_o no_o fallacy_n and_o though_o this_o secret_n be_v incredible_a to_o the_o ignorant_a for_o the_o wonderful_a virtue_n it_o show_v in_o the_o preparation_n of_o medicine_n i_o will_v willing_o publish_v it_o to_o the_o world_n for_o public_a good_a but_o on_o consideration_n i_o hold_v it_o not_o meet_v to_o communicate_v it_o for_o certain_a cause_n but_o only_o lest_o the_o knowledge_n of_o it_o shall_v perish_v and_o that_o the_o true_a and_o almost_o extinct_a medicine_n for_o the_o cure_n of_o disease_n vulgar_o incurable_a may_v flourish_v i_o have_v reveal_v this_o secret_a menstruum_fw-la to_o two_o friend_n viz._n its_o preparation_n and_o use_n but_o do_v thou_o not_o think_v because_o i_o write_v of_o these_o high_a thing_n that_o i_o do_v intend_v to_o make_v common_a the_o secret_a to_o all_o in_o general_a not_o so_o but_o i_o endeavour_v to_o confirm_v he_o that_o seek_v and_o give_v he_o occasion_n to_o search_v this_o secret_a deep_o which_o be_v find_v he_o shall_v not_o only_o find_v the_o truth_n of_o my_o word_n but_o he_o shall_v daily_o by_o exercise_n obtain_v far_o great_a thing_n than_o these_o and_o because_o i_o have_v never_o aspire_v after_o vain_a riches_n and_o honour_n nor_o never_o desire_v they_o i_o may_v well_o be_v persuade_v to_o leave_v to_o other_o as_o yet_o not_o hate_v the_o wicked_a world_n my_o troublesome_a labour_n because_o in_o this_o my_o painful_a age_n such_o tedious_a labour_n be_v very_o burdensome_a beside_o philosophy_n have_v point_v i_o another_o way_n so_o that_o what_o i_o be_o able_a i_o have_v determine_v to_o abstain_v from_o these_o vanity_n and_o to_o seek_v a_o perpetual_a good_a the_o life_n of_o rest_n but_o my_o counsel_n shall_v not_o be_v want_v to_o those_o that_o seek_v it_o for_o beside_o move_v with_o the_o former_a reason_n also_o see_v innumerable_a many_o vain_a philosopher_n as_o well_o learned_a as_o unlearned_a incessant_o work_v and_o lose_v rheir_a time_n and_o labour_n and_o at_o last_o despair_v be_v persuade_v that_o there_o be_v no_o truth_n in_o the_o philosopher_n write_n but_o to_o be_v all_o fill_v with_o lie_n and_o d●cits_v whence_o royal_a chemistry_n be_v disgrace_v but_o see_v and_o mark_v the_o infallible_a truth_n of_o ancient_a write_n suffer_v injury_n by_o unskilful_a zoilus_n i_o can_v not_o but_o defend_v their_o worth_n and_o vindicate_v they_o from_o injury_n viz._n in_o a_o few_o word_n demonstrate_v the_o possibility_n of_o metallical_a transmutation_n but_o i_o do_v not_o affirm_v that_o by_o the_o art_n which_o i_o have_v many_o year_n exercise_v and_o the_o possibility_n of_o which_o i_o defend_v i_o have_v get_v much_o wealth_n because_o hitherto_o i_o can_v not_o make_v trial_n but_o in_o small_a quantity_n for_o find_v out_o the_o possibility_n without_o any_o gain_n and_o only_o particular_o for_o i_o have_v never_o try_v any_o thing_n in_o the_o universal_a work_n reserve_v it_o to_o a_o more_o convenient_a time_n and_o place_n but_o i_o will_v not_o deny_v such_o a_o universal_a medicine_n because_o i_o have_v see_v the_o principle_n of_o it_o and_o foundation_n of_o the_o art_n wherefore_o household_n care_v be_v remove_v i_o intend_v to_o make_v trial_n of_o it_o for_o who_o will_v long_o doubt_v of_o the_o possibility_n of_o it_o be_v prove_v by_o most_o excellent_a man_n yea_o king_n and_o prince_n which_o godly_a and_o honest_a man_n have_v not_o write_v for_o gain_v some_o of_o who_o though_o they_o live_v with_o ethnic_n yet_o be_v they_o not_o heathen_n who_o have_v more_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n than_o those_o foolish_a detractor_n of_o christian_a truth_n as_o they_o appear_v to_o be_v by_o their_o write_n but_o thou_o will_v urge_v that_o if_o those_o thing_n be_v true_a which_o they_o write_v than_o it_o may_v be_v find_v in_o they_o but_o it_o be_v not_o because_o all_o and_o every_o one_o miss_v of_o it_o in_o their_o practice_n so_o that_o their_o time_n labour_n and_o charge_n be_v spend_v in_o vain_a i_o answer_v their_o write_n be_v not_o to_o be_v understand_v according_a to_o the_o letter_n but_o according_a to_o the_o hide_a sense_n according_a to_o which_o they_o have_v write_v the_o naked_a truth_n which_o to_o the_o illuminate_v be_v conspicuous_a and_o this_o menstruum_fw-la suffice_v to_o defend_v the_o write_n of_o the_o philosopher_n without_o the_o metallic_a transmutation_n so_o that_o i_o very_o believe_v the_o time_n to_o be_v near_o when_o the_o omnipotent_a god_n before_o he_o judge_v the_o world_n in_o fire_n will_v show_v his_o omnipotency_n to_o the_o nation_n by_o the_o revelation_n of_o the_o wonderful_a and_o incredible_a thing_n of_o nature_n of_o which_o transmutation_n of_o metal_n be_v not_o the_o least_o which_o in_o the_o three_o part_n of_o this_o mineral_n work_n i_o shall_v deliver_v to_o the_o last_o age_n be_v acceptable_a to_o god_n to_o the_o profit_n of_o my_o neighbour_n and_o for_o demonstration_n sake_n wherefore_o i_o now_o pass_v over_o such_o thing_n with_o a_o firm_a hope_n that_o this_o faithful_a admonition_n shall_v be_v receive_v as_o a_o undoubted_a and_o infallible_a truth_n how_o the_o aforesaid_a regulus_n of_o the_o flowerss_n and_o dross_n of_o antimony_n be_v to_o be_v use_v in_o the_o better_n of_o course_n metal_n shall_v be_v show_v that_o art_n may_v not_o be_v abuse_v the_o antimonial_a regulus_n a_o radical_a metallic_a humour_n may_v help_v to_o perform_v wonderful_a thing_n for_o be_v reduce_v to_o a_o water_n without_o a_o corrosive_n it_o resolve_v all_o metal_n cleanse_v wash_v and_o purify_v they_o and_o turn_v they_o into_o a_o better_a species_n so_o that_o particular_o not_o asleep_o small_a gain_n may_v be_v from_o thence_o receive_v but_o how_o it_o may_v be_v redueed_o into_o water_n and_o how_o by_o its_o help_n metal_n may_v be_v resolve_v volatize_v and_o again_o fix_v have_v be_v demonstrate_v by_o artephius_n basilius_n and_o paracelsus_n wherefore_o we_o need_v not_o here_o repeat_v their_o write_n but_o refer_v the_o reader_n to_o their_o work_n but_o not_o only_o the_o regulus_n but_o also_o all_o antimony_n may_v many_o way_n be_v use_v in_o the_o separation_n of_o metal_n viz._n for_o the_o extraction_n of_o hide_a gold_n which_o can_v be_v do_v without_o antimony_n as_o shall_v appear_v by_o the_o follow_a example_n when_o you_o find_v a_o marcasit_fw-la or_o other_o ironish_a fossil_n that_o will_v not_o yield_v to_o the_o trial_n by_o lead_n add_v to_o it_o three_o part_n of_o antimony_n and_o be_v well_o mix_v melt_v they_o in_o a_o cover_a crucible_n and_o be_v melt_v pour_v it_o into_o a_o cone_n and_o when_o all_o be_v cold_a separate_v the_o regulus_n which_o purge_v again_o by_o fire_n as_o before_o and_o thou_o shall_v find_v gold_n contain_v in_o the_o aforesaid_a fossil_n and_o if_o it_o be_v endue_v with_o more_o plenty_n of_o gold_n for_o it_o be_v not_o all_o draw_v out_o at_o one_o time_n viz._n with_o the_o first_o regulus_n another_o regulus_n be_v to_o be_v melt_v by_o add_v more_o iron_n and_o salt-peter_n which_o be_v also_o of_o a_o nature_n near_o to_o sol._n and_o if_o these_o marcasit_fw-la fossile_n be_v not_o ferreous_a you_o must_v in_o the_o first_o fusion_n add_v iron_n and_o nitre_n to_o they_o or_o else_o they_o yield_v no_o regulus_n by_o the_o add_v more_o scal_n of_o iron_n more_o regulus_n be_v make_v and_o for_o the_o same_o use_n as_o

marcasit_fw-la kobolt_n zinck_v talc_n and_o other_o fossile_n separate_v viz._n contain_v gold_n but_o all_o gold_n contain_v iron_n as_o that_o of_o stiria_n carinthia_n the_o gran●cia_n and_o of_o

it_o may_v thence_o be_v separate_v by_o fusion_n with_o iron_n viz._n if_o it_o be_v bring_v to_o a_o regulus_n the_o rest_n of_o the_o antimony_n may_v again_o be_v fuse_v with_o new_a iron_n and_o
