For imperfect Metals, are
changed neither into Gold, nor into
Silver, without this Stone of Philosophers.
Paracelsus, in his Manual of the
Medicinal Stone of philosophers.
Our Stone is a Celestial, and
more than perfect Medicine, because
it cleanseth all the impurities
of Metals, &c.
HENRY KHUNRADUS
In his Amphitheatre of Eternal Sapience.
I travelled long, invited others,
who knew somewhat by experience,
and could with very firm
judgement conjecture; and this not
alwayes in vain. Among which,
I call God to witness, by his wonderful
ordination, I, from one,
received the Green Catholick
Lyon, and the Blood of the Lyon,
viz. Gold, not the Vulgar, but of
Philosophers, with my Eyes I saw
the same, with my hands, I handled
it, and with my Nostrils, smelt
the odour thereof. O how wonderful
is God in his Works! They,
I say, gave those Gifts prepared,
which I in most desperate Cases,
used with admirable success to the
benefit of my needy Neighbour.
And (by Instinct of Jehovah's
mercy) they sincerely revealed to
me, the wayes of preparing, &c.
The same.
This wonderful Method, the
wonderful God gave me. In this
way, in which I walked, God
alone, I say, immediately, and mediately;
yet subdelegately, Nature,
Fire, and Art, of my Master,
as well living as mute, corporally,
and spiritually good, sleeping
and waking, gave the same to
me, &c,
The same.
