appear_v how_o much_o art_n help_v nature_n for_o we_o shall_v say_v nothing_o of_o the_o coral_n preparation_n because_o that_o we_o shall_v to_o that_o effect_n hint_n on_o that_o we_o have_v

in_o this_o place_n concern_v the_o nature_n of_o these_o earth_n since_o we_o have_v treat_v of_o it_o heretofore_o we_o shall_v only_o say_v that_o there_o must_v be_v have_v some_o of_o the_o

into_o a_o liquid_a pap_n then_o draw_v off_o again_o this_o liquor_n by_o distillation_n with_o the_o gentle_a heat_n of_o a_o vaporous_a bath_n and_o thus_o continue_v for_o seven_o time_n or_o rather_o till_o the_o artist_n can_v find_v out_o by_o the_o taste_n of_o these_o earth_n that_o they_o be_v sufficient_o impregnate_v with_o the_o savour_n and_o virtue_n of_o the_o sulphureous_a

reduce_v from_o power_n to_o act_v by_o the_o action_n of_o the_o stomach_n when_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o make_v use_n of_o the_o remedy_n before_o we_o begin_v to_o speak_v of_o the_o preparation_n of_o gold_n it_o seem_v to_o be_v necessary_a to_o speak_v two_o word_n beforehand_o to_o give_v to_o understand_v that_o this_o metal_n may_v be_v so_o well_o open_v by_o the_o mean_n of_o chemistry_n as_o to_o be_v capable_a of_o produce_v some_o virtue_n in_o we_o although_o it_o may_v be_v reduce_v again_o to_o its_o first_o metallic_a body_n for_o there_o be_v many_o which_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o though_o this_o fix_v body_n be_v dissolve_v and_o alter_v by_o preparation_n nevertheless_o it_o be_v reducible_a into_o its_o body_n and_o by_o consequence_n not_o capable_a to_o produce_v in_o we_o that_o virtue_n which_o the_o ancient_n and_o modern_n do_v attribute_n to_o it_o but_o we_o must_v clear_v this_o business_n by_o the_o demonstration_n of_o the_o dissolution_n of_o other_o metal_n into_o salt_n or_o rather_o into_o vitriol_n as_o silver_n copper_n tin_n lead_v and_o iron_n which_o nevertheless_o be_v most_o common_o capable_a of_o be_v reduce_v again_o into_o metal_n which_o hinder_v not_o but_o that_o the_o most_o skilful_a physician_n make_v of_o it_o daily_o more_o and_o more_o by_o reason_n that_o their_o study_n and_o experience_n make_v they_o discover_v those_o rare_a virtue_n which_o these_o open_a metal_n produce_v in_o chronical_a disease_n which_o be_v the_o most_o root_a and_o stubborn_a now_o all_o these_o metallick_n vitriol_n have_v different_a taste_n and_o colour_n as_o also_o they_o have_v all_o some_o specific_a virtue_n as_o it_o appear_v by_o their_o effect_n which_o oblige_v we_o to_o say_v that_o since_o gold_n though_o of_o a_o fix_v nature_n can_v be_v so_o prepare_v and_o open_v by_o the_o mean_n of_o certain_a thing_n which_o be_v daily_o use_v both_o as_o aliment_n and_o medicament_n and_o that_o it_o can_v be_v reduce_v into_o a_o vitriolic_a salt_n which_o have_v its_o colour_n and_o its_o specific_a taste_n and_o virtue_n why_o shall_v it_o be_v deprive_v of_o be_v put_v in_o use_n because_o of_o its_o reducibility_n into_o metal_n not_o but_o that_o we_o believe_v with_o the_o wise_a that_o if_o this_o noble_a metal_n be_v once_o so_o open_v and_o radical_o dissolve_v in_o such_o wise_a that_o it_o can_v never_o be_v reduce_v into_o metal_n again_o by_o any_o chemical_a artifice_n i_o say_v we_o shall_v believe_v that_o gold_n thus_o uncorporify_v and_o volatilise_v will_v acquire_v a_o far_o more_o ample_a sphere_n of_o activity_n and_o virtue_n but_o notwithstanding_o all_o this_o we_o do_v not_o omit_v to_o attribute_v to_o the_o other_o

and_o it_o be_v of_o this_o preparation_n of_o gold_n which_o we_o have_v dispose_v in_o one_o part_n of_o this_o great_a cordial_n to_o render_v it_o accomplish_v in_o all_o respect_n we_o shall_v now_o lay_v down_o some_o of_o those_o remark_n which_o be_v necessary_a to_o this_o operation_n which_o may_v very_o well_o pass_v for_o one_o of_o the_o most_o pleasant_a and_o most_o considerable_a of_o all_o the_o rare_a chemical_a pharmacie_n the_o artist_n therefore_o must_v choose_v the_o pure_a gold_n which_o yet_o ought_v to_o have_v in_o it_o something_o of_o allay_n and_o therefore_o he_o must_v pass_v it_o or_o melt_v it_o down_o with_o antimony_n who_o sulphur_n consume_v all_o which_o be_v heterogeneal_a to_o it_o as_o its_o great_a sweetness_n ductibility_n high_a colour_n

be_v dissolve_v without_o the_o help_n of_o the_o most_o corrode_a spirit_n which_o we_o will_v not_o use_v he_o must_v therefore_o open_a and_o separate_v that_o strong_a union_n of_o this_o body_n and_o reduce_v it_o into_o a_o spongeous_a and_o penetrable_a body_n who_o atom_n may_v be_v penetrate_v and_o dissolve_v by_o mean_n of_o common_a water_n enrich_v or_o endow_v with_o ordinary_a

so_o spongeous_a and_o open_v that_o one_o ounce_n of_o this_o metal_n so_o prepare_v make_v a_o great_a quantity_n then_o half_a a_o pound_n of_o gold_n in_o a_o ingot_n or_o wedge_n gold_n be_v

be_v separate_v from_o the_o
that_o all_o salt_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o close_a spirit_n as_o also_o all_o spirit_n but_o a_o open_v salt_n for_o all_o the_o seminal_a power_n and_o all_o the_o chief_a virtue_n of_o animal_n and_o of_o their_o part_n proceed_v from_o light_a as_o from_o the_o father_n from_o the_o air_n as_o from_o the_o medium_fw-la and_o from_o the_o salt_n as_o from_o the_o son_n and_o all_o three_o

without_o reason_n that_o all_o the_o ancient_a dogmatist_n and_o sir_n walter_n raleigh_n after_o they_o have_v introduce_v the_o burn_v hartshorn_n in_o almost_o all_o cordial_n now_o what_o we_o have_v new_o say_v make_v appear_v that_o the_o cordial_a virtue_n be_v no_o long_o there_o and_o therefore_o can_v be_v employ_v in_o they_o but_o as_o a_o astringent_a earth_n and_o a_o spongeous_a

it_o may_v be_v also_o object_v that_o the_o calcine_v hartshorn_n be_v not_o incapable_a of_o virtue_n since_o it_o can_v alter_v the_o ill_a fermentation_n of_o the_o stomach_n cure_v the_o

from_o the_o indigestion_n and_o base_a fermentation_n in_o the_o same_o manner_n that_o she_o quell_v the_o acidity_n of_o saline_n and_o vitriolic_a spirit_n and_o that_o of_o vinegar_n when_o they_o have_v be_v digest_v together_o and_o draw_v off_o again_o by_o distillation_n as_o insipid_a as_o water_n by_o reason_n that_o this_o rarefy_a dry_a and_o spongeous_a body_n be_v deprive_v of_o all_o saltness_n and_o desire_v of_o refurnishing_a itself_o with_o that_o salt_n which_o do_v make_v the_o acidity_n in_o those_o liquor_n it_o be_v therefore_o for_o this_o only_a reason_n that_o it_o have_v be_v put_v in_o the_o composition_n of_o this_o cordial_a but_o since_o that_o the_o volatile_a salt_n of_o hartshorn_n be_v alexitery_n and_o cordial_a and_o that_o it_o most_o powerful_o contribute_v to_o the_o rare_a virtue_n of_o this_o cordial_n we_o have_v also_o add_v to_o it_o some_o hartshorn_n philosophical_o calcine_v in_o the_o vapour_n of_o the_o digestion_n extraction_n distillation_n and_o circulation_n of_o spirit_n of_o wine_n which_o serve_v for_o menstruum_fw-la to_o extract_v the_o virtue_n of_o the_o part_n of_o the_o vegetable_n which_o compose_v

and_o better_a which_o thing_n make_v it_o appear_v that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o true_a cordial_a magistery_n therefore_o we_o have_v think_v fit_a to_o proceed_v in_o another_o manner_n which_o be_v

they_o must_v be_v thus_o use_v because_o that_o this_o kind_n of_o dry_v take_v little_a or_o nothing_o of_o their_o volatile_a salt_n from_o they_o and_o that_o in_o case_n there_o be_v any_o
