A86029 A description of new philosophical furnaces, or A new art of distilling, divided into five parts. Whereunto is added a description of the tincture of gold, or the true aurum potabile; also, the first part of the mineral work. Set forth and published for the sakes of them that are studious of the truth. / By John Rudolph Glauber. Set forth in English, by J.F. D.M.; Furni novi philosophici. English. Glauber, Johann Rudolf, 1604-1670.; French, John, 1616-1657. 1651 (1651) Wing G846; Thomason E649_3; ESTC R202215 318,170 477

these_o my_o write_n be_v neither_o dream_n nor_o trifle_n but_o true_a natural_a secret_n for_o nature_n be_v rich_a and_o the_o earth_n be_v full_a of_o hide_a treasure_n that_o which_o be_v

as_o if_o god_n have_v by_o his_o divine_a providence_n reserve_v something_o for_o our_o good_a for_o we_o his_o disobedient_a child_n in_o europe_n and_o especial_o in_o germany_n be_v chastise_v

who_o without_o doubt_n see_v our_o filial_a obedience_n will_v provide_v for_o we_o with_o his_o divine_a blessing_n both_o temporal_a and_o eternal_a and_o true_o it_o seem_v as_o if_o upon_o this_o

viz._n of_o the_o dross_n gold_n and_o silver_n be_v produce_v but_o i_o answer_v that_o all_o imperfect_a metal_n contain_v in_o they_o something_o of_o what_o be_v perfect_a which_o by_o the_o trial_n of_o cupel_n can_v be_v draw_v forth_o unless_o they_o be_v destroy_v and_o convert_v into_o dross_n of_o which_o thing_n elsewhere_o for_o imperfect_a metal_n contain_v much_o incombustible_a

fire_n of_o the_o first_o liquefaction_n be_v by_o combustion_n turn_v into_o dross_n have_v sustain_v a_o great_a violence_n of_o the_o fire_n then_o that_o which_o be_v melt_v the_o first_o time_n wherefore_o being_n more_o purify_v be_v make_v more_o near_o to_o gold_n and_o silver_n than_o that_o metal_n from_o which_o it_o be_v separate_v he_o therefore_o that_o know_v how_o to_o melt_v that_o dross_n in_o which_o oftentimes_o there_o be_v much_o leave_v especial_o the_o dross_n of_o tin_n and_o that_o with_o a_o fit_a addition_n shall_v without_o doubt_n find_v better_a metal_n than_o those_o which_o be_v melt_v by_o the_o digger_n of_o the_o mineral_n the_o first_o time_n now_o i_o do_v not_o say_v that_o there_o be_v so_o great_a a_o power_n in_o common_a fire_n to_o puririfie_v and_o perfect_v base_a metal_n fire_n indeed_o have_v a_o great_a power_n to_o purify_v and_o maturate_a metal_n but_o it_o be_v too_o violent_a for_o those_o that_o be_v volatile_a without_o doubt_n there_o be_v also_o other_o thing_n that_o can_v help_v the_o fire_n which_o be_v know_v we_o may_v easy_o be_v able_a to_o do_v great_a thing_n and_o because_o it_o have_v be_v

it_o be_v not_o needful_a to_o destroy_v those_o metal_n for_o profit_n sake_n see_v there_o be_v find_v in_o great_a quantity_n metal_n destroy_v and_o bring_v to_o dross_n already_o out_o of_o which_o thou_o may_v draw_v forth_o gold_n and_o silver_n for_o to_o maintain_v thou_o but_o especial_o some_o certain_a dross_n of_o tin_n be_v commend_v that_o come_v out_o of_o a_o certain_a i_o thereof_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o abundance_n of_o gold_n as_o i_o can_v witness_v by_o my_o one_o experience_n and_o that_o indeed_o not_o without_o cause_n and_o although_o all_o tin_n be_v of_o

be_v mix_v with_o the_o tin_n in_o the_o infusion_n which_o oftentimes_o refiner_n know_v but_o of_o the_o manner_n of_o separation_n they_o be_v ignorant_a for_o oftentimes_o there_o be_v find_v

be_v your_o advice_n worth_a if_o it_o can_v be_v 〈◊〉_d without_o loss_n for_o all_o that_o which_o be_v separate_v by_o lead_n after_o the_o common_a way_n can_v have_v so_o much_o in_o it_o
