A44608	Aurifontina chymica, or, A collection of fourteen small treatises concerning the first matter of philosophers for the discovery of their (hitherto so much concealed) mercury which many have studiously endeavoured to hide, but these to make manifest for the benefit of mankind in general.	Houpreght, John Frederick.; Flamel, Nicolas, d. 1418.; Ripley, George, d. 1490?	1680 (1680)	Wing H2941; ESTC R31127	85,086	301

three_o element_n and_o these_o last_o colour_n abide_v hidden_o and_o intrinsical_o and_o appear_v under_o the_o show_n of_o a_o white_a spirit_n in_o liquid_a mercury_n until_o it_o be_v recondense_v in_o the_o powder_n which_o be_v in_o the_o body_n because_o the_o soul_n lie_v hide_v in_o the_o spirit_n as_o in_o the_o condensation_n the_o spirit_n and_o the_o soul_n lie_v hide_v in_o the_o powder_n or_o body_n for_o there_o be_v a_o corruption_n in_o the_o thing_n to_o be_v alter_v but_o no_o dissipation_n of_o part_n unless_o some_o superfluous_a part_n be_v to_o be_v reject_v as_o unprofitable_a for_o generation_n whereupon_o the_o artificer_n purify_v his_o work_n that_o digestion_n may_v succeed_v better_o this_o be_v manifest_a by_o example_n in_o grain_n for_o of_o two_o grain_n of_o wheat_n if_o the_o one_o be_v cast_v into_o good_a ground_n there_o it_o putrify_v die_v and_o lose_v its_o external_a form_n but_o nothing_o thereof_o be_v dissipate_v yea_o in_o its_o time_n it_o increase_v into_o a_o multiplicity_n of_o fruit_n and_o there_o be_v indeed_o make_v a_o corruption_n only_o of_o the_o form_n and_o not_o any_o dissipation_n of_o the_o matter_n but_o if_o the_o other_o grain_n be_v cast_v into_o the_o fire_n than_o both_o matter_n and_o form_n be_v corrupt_v and_o the_o whole_a be_v dissipate_v and_o that_o corruption_n be_v unprofitable_a for_o generation_n wherefore_o water_n dissolve_v not_o body_n but_o those_o only_o of_o its_o own_o kind_n and_o by_o which_o it_o may_v be_v condense_v nor_o can_v body_n be_v at_o all_o nourish_v to_o generation_n but_o by_o their_o like_a which_o can_v preserve_v the_o species_n destroy_v by_o that_o transmute_v body_n through_o the_o artifice_n of_o the_o work_n though_o vegetable_n be_v nourish_v by_o thing_n of_o different_a kind_n yet_o before_o they_o nourish_v they_o they_o be_v assimilate_v the_o dissolution_n of_o they_o be_v first_o make_v according_a to_o the_o proportion_n of_o the_o thing_n which_o suck_v and_o draw_v they_o to_o they_o it_o must_v be_v note_v therefore_o that_o the_o solution_n of_o metal_n may_v be_v make_v by_o different_a way_n one_o which_o fool_n know_v as_o be_v abovesaid_a with_o foreign_a thing_n which_o abide_v not_o with_o the_o dissolve_a metal_n which_o be_v rather_o to_o be_v call_v a_o corrosive_a destruction_n and_o defilement_n of_o the_o compound_v the_o second_o solution_n be_v make_v by_o the_o power_n and_o force_v of_o fire_n which_o be_v no_o true_a solution_n but_o a_o melt_a rather_o of_o the_o colligate_v elementary_a part_n for_o the_o outward_a heat_n of_o the_o fire_n in_o dissolve_v the_o compound_v find_v out_o its_o intrinsical_a natural_a or_o native_a fire_n within_o which_o internal_a and_o proportional_a fire_n dwell_v in_o the_o air_n therefore_o it_o dissolve_v the_o air_n itself_o but_o that_o dissolve_a air_n reside_v and_o dwell_v in_o the_o water_n and_o the_o water_n in_o the_o earth_n and_o the_o water_n itself_o dissolve_v the_o earth_n so_o that_o it_o melt_v both_o the_o active_a and_o passive_a but_o this_o melt_a be_v no_o true_a solution_n yea_o it_o be_v a_o dissipation_n because_o the_o element_n there_o be_v homogeneous_a to_o one_o another_o and_o proportionable_o fix_v by_o digestion_n be_v mix_v and_o one_o of_o they_o educe_v out_o of_o the_o power_n of_o another_o general_o and_o therefore_o this_o fall_v out_o even_o in_o pure_a body_n in_o which_o the_o elemental_a nature_n be_v fix_v wherefore_o in_o they_o the_o flame_n of_o fire_n cause_v melt_v and_o dissolve_v that_o whole_a body_n to_o fluidity_n and_o not_o to_o a_o separation_n because_o fire_n can_v flow_v unless_o the_o air_n consubstantial_a to_o it_o flow_v neither_o do_v the_o a●_n flow_v unless_o the_o water_n be_v dissolve_v nor_o do_v the_o water_n flow_v unless_o the_o earth_n flow_v and_o contrariwise_o as_o the_o earth_n be_v dissolve_v by_o the_o water_n so_o on_o the_o contrary_a side_n the_o water_n retain_v the_o air_n and_o congeal_v it_o and_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n ascend_v upward_o the_o air_n retain_v the_o fire_n in_o congelation_n because_o the_o more_o fix_v and_o fix_v element_n cause_n fixation_n by_o act_v together_o on_o one_o another_o as_o earth_n and_o water_n and_o in_o a_o contrary_a manner_n fire_n and_o air_n act_n together_o each_o on_o other_o unto_o solution_n but_o this_o solution_n be_v call_v a_o melt_a of_o the_o compound_v and_o not_o proper_o a_o solution_n of_o it_o because_o the_o part_n separable_a from_o one_o another_o in_o the_o generation_n of_o the_o compound_v be_v not_o dissolve_v as_o be_v do_v in_o the_o three_o and_o true_o philosophic_a solution_n when_o the_o compound_v be_v dissolve_v in_o the_o manner_n aforesaid_a and_o yet_o the_o part_n abide_v unseparate_v though_o separable_a so_o that_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o most_o digest_v element_n may_v be_v extract_v from_o thing_n to_o be_v dissolve_v by_o the_o dissolver_n that_o be_v quicksilver_n and_o the_o grosser_n part_n in_o such_o a_o dissolution_n acquire_v some_o latitude_n of_o subtlety_n because_o the_o body_n be_v turn_v into_o spirit_n and_o contrariwise_o the_o spirit_n into_o body_n fix_v thing_n be_v turn_v into_o volatiles_fw-la and_o volatiles_fw-la to_o fix_a for_o this_o

which_o can_v be_v do_v by_o no_o other_o thing_n than_o quicksilver_n only_o with_o a_o prudent_a proportion_n so_o as_o a_o good_a artificer_n know_v from_o within_o the_o nature_n and_o

of_o sulphur_n yet_o so_o that_o nothing_o o●_n the_o sulphur_n which_o generate_v the_o gold_n do_v remain_v in_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o gold_n as_o in_o a_o humane_a embryo_n when_o it_o be_v

the_o philosopher_n water_n of_o life_n the_o blood_n of_o man_n his_o red_a flesh_n his_o body_n and_o bones_n know_v therefore_o that_o there_o be_v many_o sort_n of_o milk_n viz._n virgin_n milk_n

much_o difference_n also_o there_o be_v between_o elixir_n and_o the_o medicine_n as_o between_o masculine_a and_o feminine_a seed_n and_o also_o a_o infant_n which_o be_v generate_v of_o those_o in_o
