IT follows in the Vision, that at length the Toad (over-charged with the broth) did burst asunder; This broth is the same which the fair Medea did prepare, and pour upon the two Serpents which did keep the Golden Aples, which grew in
the hidden Garden of the Virgins Hespe∣rides.
For the Vinegre of the Philosophers being circulated upon the Body, doth en∣gender a substance like unto bloudy Broth, and makes Colours of the Rain∣bow, to appear in the ascension and de∣scension upon your Lyon, until the Eagles have at length devoured the Lyon, and all together being killed with the Cari∣on of the Carcasses become a venemous Toad, creeping on the Earth, and a Crow swimming in the midst of the dead Sea.
The Juice of Grapes then, which is our Mercury, drawn from the Chameleon or Air of our Physical Magnesia, and Chalybs Magical, being circulated upon our true Terra Lemnia; after it is grossly mixed with it by Incorporation, and set to our fire to digest, doth still enter in and upon our Body, and searcheth the profoundity of it; and makes the occult to become ma∣nifest by continual ascension and descen∣sion: till all together become a Broth; which is a mean substance of dissevered qualities, between the Water and the
Body, till at length the Body burst asunder and be reduced into a Powder, like to the Atoms of the Sun, black of the blackest and of a viscous matter.
