is brought into the Mines or other Tiling Water may come among it but such Waters as above you may prove and further after your pleasure make profit by them Also on this wise you may prove all Wells or Springs of Salt after the beforementioned little proof and search and know properly how rich they be And I was willing to mention these Instructions for Section 5 salty-Proofs that those who are now concerned may know how the better to manage them Thus much loving Reader I have writ of proving all Section 6 sorts of Oars and Mettals and other necessary things fit to be known for proving and meltiug them to the good and profit of all Mine-workers and young Assayers and for such as are ignorant of these Arts and this I have done in five Books most faithfully and dilligently and also given very large Instructions by writing and Sculpturing the same and I desire for this time that every one who loves or inclines to these Sciences will be content with it and accept of my good Intentions for these are not designed for Magisterial Artists Now in these Books I have not undertaken to treat of all Oars singly upon preparing and melting them in the great Works because I could not well discharge my self therein in respect that it would be a greater Task than my present Services can admit of yet I will reserve it to a farther Opportunity and I will also respite my Labour to discover how the Gold and Silver upon the Coyn'd Works are to be ordered upon diverse certain Contents and so made to profit which would require a particular and more large Volumn considering that it is a great Work and for many years with other things pertaining to the Coyn'd-Works have been as Secrets and therefore I Section 7 will also let them be as Secrets for the present And although Goldsmiths common Assayers and Merchants do suppose when they can reckon some dressings of the Crucible they have the perfect Art yet they want the most needful and best parts namely they have not been with the Coiners neither have they any true understanding or exercise of it and therefore in these matters nothing could be done with fruit or profit Section 8 Now concerning the Generation of Oars and Metals of which the Philosophers and Naturalists have wrote and disputed very much I leave all of them to others with their Rules and Opinions of the Mine-Workers by reason that their thoughts and presumptions are not only uncertain but oft-times wide and agree not together yet I really believe That God the Almighty Creator hath reserved these Mysteries to his Almightyness and that Gold Silver and all Metals through his Everlasting Word the Son of God from whom Heaven and Earth and all things which are in them have their Creation and Being are to this day preserved and multiplied and that the knowledge of them are come to clear light and published for his Glory and the good of Mankind for which glorious Guifts every one ought with pure Zeal to praise and thank God from his Heart and imploy all his dilligence and reason so that what he may have out of the Mine-Works may be used to the praise of God and to the profit help and advantage of his Neighbors whereby God the Almighty will not only bless it but also richly Multiply the Possessors of it and cause them to injoy it to the Salvation of their Souls Now may the Lord God Creator and Preserver of all Creatures be graciously pleased to open the hidden Treasures of the rich Gold Sope also of Gold Silver and all Metallick Veins for upholding the Posterity of the Poor Sons of Adam and by blessings and long continuance preserve them for his beloved Son our Lord Jesus Christs sake and that we may use them with thanks and praise Amen FINIS Fleta Minor Spagyrick LAWS The Second Part.
