Quote of the Day
“The Word Alchemy, in the Arabic language means Fire. Alchemy is a very hidden part of Natural Philosophy and the most necessary part of Physics, which is the investigation of Nature; with it an Art is made that cannnot compare to no other, because it teaches to perfect all the precious stones imperfetions, to lead the human bodies affected by the disease towards a perfect health and to transmute imperfect bodily metals into gold and silver true. All this is done with a certain universal medicinal body of which all the particular medicines have received something and this medicinal body is preparing with the work of the hands, through a hidden ingenuity and an Art that only know the Sons of Truth”
