VI. This Fire is not vio∣lent or forcing, except it be too much excited or stir∣red up; it is a Fire digestive, alterative, and taken from another body than the mat∣ter; being but one only, moist also, and not na∣tural.
VII. The Third Fire, is the natural Fire of our Wa∣ter, which is also called the Fire against nature, because it is Water; and yet never∣theless, it makes a mere Spi∣rit of Gold, which common Fire is not able to do.
VIII. This Fire is Mine∣ral, equal, and participates of Sulphur; it overturns or destroys, congeals, dissolves, and calcines; it is penetra∣ting, subtil, incombustible and not burning, and is the fountain of Living Water, wherein the King and Queen bathe themselves, whose help we stand in need of, through the whole Work, through the beginning, mid∣dle and end.
