Projection upon Metalls,

No Projection of the Red stone but upon Luna,

Isaac Flander.

If thou would'st make Projection upon Jupiter, melt it in a Crucibrrr rrd put to one pound of Jupiter one orrce of pure Luna, and melt them together; then cast on it thy White Tincture, and the Jupiter ani∣mation of the Stone. Clang:

If Thou put to It but Little of Ferment thou shalt have but little Tincture. Dastinus pag. 30.

When the stone is liquefied by Decoction, it must then be Coagulated, But this Coagu∣lation is made with Ferment, or with its owne body, which is the same thing.

When the Anima Candida is perfectly ri∣sen, the Artist must joyn it, the same moment, with its body: For the Anima without its body cannot be held. But such an Union must be made by mediation of the Spirit:

Page 86

because the Anima cannot have life in the body nor perseverance in it, but by the Spirit: And such an Union and Conjunction is the end of the Work. The Soul must be joyned with the First body whence it was, and with no other; which if thou dost not, thou shalt faile of thy purpose, as many Ig∣norants have done who knew not this Secret

Margarita Novella.

Spirits are fugitive, untill such Time as bodyes are joyned with them, and help them to fight against the fire: and yet those parts agree but little, unless with good Operation, and Continued labour: because the nature of the rwordr Tendent Upwards, where the Centre rr the Anima is. And who is he of those that have tryed, that was able to Conjoyne Two Things that are Diverse, whose Centers too are Divers? unless after the Conversion shall be transmuted into True Luna, less or more, according to the Spirituality of the stone? And if thou woul∣d'st Work with thy Red Stone, project it upon Luna Molten, and thou shalt finde the purest Sol.

Cast thy medicin upon thy Ferment, then it is frangible as Glasle. Take that frangible masse, and cast it upon metals first clear'd, and thou shalt have metal of proofe.

Ripleus Anglus,

This Secret thou must not be Ignorant of,

Page 87

That our Red man, and his wife do not Tinge till they are Tinged.

Evoaldus.

Would any man by the Physic Stone turn lead into Gold or Silver? Then he must first mingle with it the Substance of Lead, that both may become one Thing; In the same way he must proceed with Tin, and Copper.

Idem. pagin. 123.
