With the second which is an humidityVegetable reviving what earst was dead.
OUr second Water, or Menstruum, or
Fire, is our Elixir, which is an Elix∣ation

to rise, and to spring forth in Sprigs and

moles turned into a living quick active
Spirit, and our Compound after death be∣gins
to sprout, and to shew its true Vege∣tative
nature, it is indowed with a green
Colour, which is the sign of the growth of
all things.
