[3] The edition of 1653 extends this abbreviation to potest, which is incorrect with the plural subject. We interpret the macron as representing merely that an abbreviation has been formed from a word beginning in p and ending in t. Either potest or possunt would fit this interpretation, but possunt is grammatically correct.

1. Experientia, rerum omnium, etiam sola, sufficiens magistra, infallibiliter attestatur: cui refragari, nonne esset plus quam stultum? Hunc (ab aliis tamen praeparatum) uirtuose efficacem uidit, et Pontifex Romanus, et Caesarea Maiestas: uiderunt et Reges, orbis terrarum, non pauci; nec non Imperii Romani Electores nonnulli: uiderunt et Principes aliquot, Comites, Barones, Nobiles, et, (propter uirtutem atque doctrinam) a nobilibus proximi, Doctores: immo ex omni gente, Iudaica, Ethnica, et Christiana, etiam Turcica, statuque ac ordine, passim, multi; tam Ecclesiastici quam Politici, literati pariter atque illiterati, oculis (obstupescentes Naturae, per artem, miraculo) uiderunt, manibusque tetigerunt, suis.

[Google translate: The reason, true and certain, Sophus loyal to the leader, gravely confirms it: how to add anguish of this place is an obstacle to the other and larger, most ready, she has lost.]

3. Sapientes, tot ac tanti, auctores grauissimi, (quorum, hac de re, passim extant monumenta) uno, harmonice, ore, etiam iureiurando sanctissimo, non temere asseuerarunt: qui omnes ueridici (quia uiri docti et boni) tamdiu et sunt et habentur, donec de eis contrarium, sufficienter, fuerit probatum. At quando? Cumque artifici cuiuis in sua arte sit credendum, cur non potius, ea in re, fides erit adhibenda illis, quam ignorantibus? Omnium enim artifices, et optime et uerissime, de sui operis ratione, disserere, loqui et iudicare sciunt.

But when? And when the artist in his own art which is to be believed, why not rather, that in reality, to be used will be the faith of them, than who did not know? For all artists, and very well and verily, by reason of his work, discuss, and to judge know.]

4. Natura, Dei in huius machina Mundi, numquam otiosa ministra, multis, in operationibus suis, (ut tradiderunt Theosophi et confirmarunt experti) uiis ac modis, diu noctuque[1] nobis fideliter suadet, fidemque, de eo, facit firmam. Natura parens, de filio catholico, catholice testatur, suo.

The nature of a parent, of the Son of the Catholic, Catholic testifies his or her own.

5. Mens, humani animi scintilla altior et lucidior, diuina ac immortalis, quam Deus id generis donauerit conditione, ut ex insito sibi Naturae suae desiderio, quibuscumque possit uiribus, ad summa et optima tendat, indefinenter appetit: quem appetitus boni (est enim a Deo) stimulum, quam animi (sciunt non nisi experti) irrequietudinem, quod desiderium ardens, Lapidem Philosophorum habendi, si in rerum natura non esset, Deus Ipse, etiam iis, (de uitiosis sermo hic non est) qui prudentiores, sapientiores et religiosiores aliis sunt, aut fuere, frustra indidisset.

But nothing in vain!

6. Consensus typicus, uere admirandus, (in Natura) Lapidis huius, cum sanctissima Triunitate diuina; cum toto Vniuerso creato; nec non logÙ Dei incarnato, hoc est Maschiach promisso et misso, religionisque Christianae Sacramentis atque mysteriis tam altis et profundis, uerum esse, credere ac fateri, omnes sanae mentis, iuste compellit. Si loquor absque ueritate, erubescam. Iudicent, non nisi scientes.

If I speak the truth, without, be ashamed. To judge, knowing only.

7. Denique, (cum Creator, etiam ex creatura, teste Diuino Paulo, ad Romanos I. uelit cognosci) Deus et potuit et uoluit (uelle testatur experientia) organis suis, quibusdam, (non enim uni dat cuncta Deus) inde usque a Mundi initio, benigne largiri et adhuc uult, (quoniam in aeternum misericordia eius) ut nimirum, quaenam sit mira Creatoris sapientia, potentia infinita, benignitas immensa etc. hoc est qualis sit Deus Ipse, typo mirifico, ex creatura, non quidem, ex Mundo maiore, per se solum uel simpliciter, et partibus eius, passim, particulari cognitione, uerum quoque, ex Mundi maioris filio, (artis, hoc est physicochemiae interpretamento) in subiecto catholico, catholice, abundantius et explicatius, humano generi, coram, innotescat: indeque yhvh[2] Triunum, auctorem tanti boni ac doni, clarius discat agnoscere, admirari et uenerari solum, animo collaudare grato, profundius meditari, ipsique inseparabiliter coniungi, et reuniri.

II. Quid est Lapis Philosophorum?

[Google translate: What is the philosophers stone?]

Lapis Philosophrum est ruah elohim Ruach Elohim, (qui incubabat aquis, Gen. 1.) Caelo mediante (yhvh solo, ex mera bonitate sua, ita uolente) conceptus, et corpus, uerum ac sub sensus cadens, factus, in utero protÙtokou (Chaeos creati) Mundi maioris, uirgineo, terra, nimirum, uacua atque inani, et aqua: natus in lucem Macrocosmou filius, aspectu (coram insipiente) uilis, deformis, et quasi in nouissimis: consubstantialis, tamen, similisque parenti, catholicus, triunus, hermaphroditos, uisibilis, tactu, auditu, olfactu, et gustu sensibilis, localis atque finitus: manifestatus, regeneratorie, a semet ipso, artis physicochemicae obstetricia manu, in corpore, suo, semel assumpto, glorificato: ad commodum siue usus, propemodum infinitos, et microcosmo et macrocosmo, in triunitate catholica, mirifice salutares.

[Google translate: Ruach Elohim, Elohim, is ruah Philosophrum stone, (who incubabat the waters, Gen.. 1.) Through the medium of Heaven (yhvh alone, out of pure goodness of their own, thus willing) concept, and the body, under the true and the sense of falling, being made, in the womb protÙtokou (Chae created) of greater world, uirgineo, the earth, of course, a deserted and empty, and the water: the son born in the light Macrocosmou in sight (before the foolish man) vile, ugly, and as in the last: one being with, nevertheless, similar parent, a Catholic who has triunus, hermaphrodites, visible, touch, hearing, smell, taste and sensible, and the local finite: manifested regeneratorie, from Himself, art physicochemicae midwife hand, in the body, his, once, taking with them, glorified: for the comfort or the use of, nearly infinite, and a microcosm and macrocosm, in the Catholic triunitate, wonderfully salutary.

III. Quare dicitur Lapis, et cur Philosophorum?

[Google translate: It is therefore said stone, and why philosophers?]

Lapis, cur proprie dicatur, quodque nomen eius, quo apud caecum uulgus nominatur. Deus Ipse, ob causas certas, in scriptis sapientiae antistitum traditas, grauiter prohibuit cuiuis reuelare. Quamobrem et cuncti philosophi citius mori uoluerunt, quam artis secretum hoc secretissimum diuulgare. Adducam tamen ipsos, philosophice loquentes: quia, inquiunt, ut lapidum est quoque generatio et regeneratio eius: ex humido, nimirum, uiscoso et glutinoso, et terreno[3] sicco. Et: quod coctione sua (quae incrassando procedit) in lapidem permanenter fixum (quique ut lapis teratur) induretur. Lapis et non lapis, uere dicunt philosophi. Responsum clarius, maneat alta mente repostum.[4] Porro: Philosophorum est, non sapientiae uerae osorum: Sapientium, non insipientium; non idiotarum; non contra conscientiam uitiosorum. Solus Theosophus fortunatus.

[Google translate: The stone, why is properly called, and that his name, which in a blind man named mob. God himself who, due to causes of sure, given in the writings of bishops of wisdom, whose gravely forbade to reveal. For this reason, philosophers and all wanted to die more quickly, than this secret of the secret art diuulgare. However, I will bring them, philosophically speaking, because, they say, such as stones is also his generation and regeneration: from the moisture, of course, uiscoso and glutinous, and of earthy out. And, that his coctione (which proceeds incrassando) permanently fixed on the stone of (as stone and who other) harden them. The stone and not a stone, truly say of the philosopher. The answer is more clear, the mind remains high FAR. Moreover, philosophers, not those that hate, true wisdom: the wise, not foolish, not an uninitiated person, not against his conscience vicious. The only fortunate THEOSOPHY.]

Quae (Elohim, creatore ac conditore, uerbo suo, dicente ac praecipiente. Gen. 1.) res omnes, quas extare uoluit, in hoc theatro Mundano, produxerunt, esseque fecerunt: in globo sublunari, uestitae terra et aqua, hylÍ siue materia prima, communi et uniuersali, Caeli interuentu. Addo: Ruach Elohim est morphÍ siue forma rerum omnium interna, ousiÙdÍs et essentialis; Mundi anima uniuersalis: uirtus substantialis, per se subsistens, causa omni creaturae Mundi huius subsistendi: essentia (quia increatus) uere quinta: et (ut uoce dicam usitatissima) ipsissima substantificaque rerum Natura. Vnus (essentia et numero) hic Dei spiritus est; una, uniuersitatis conspicuae et corporeae huius unius, anima catholica: polupoikilos tamen, hoc est multiformis (Sap. 7.22. Ephes. 3.10.) et uariae eius radii atque scintillae, per totius ingentem materiei primae massae molem, hinc inde dispersae ac dissipatae; inque Mundi partibus, disiunctis etiam, et loco et corporis mole, nec non circumscriptione, postea separatis, disiunctim et separatim, innumerae, unius animae uniuersalis scintillae, nunc etiam inhabitantes. Vnus in multiplicitate: multiplex in unitate. Grata Deo in pluribus unitas. Et contra.

Which (Elohim, the Creator and the Creator, his word, and the order says. Gen. 1.) All things, which there willed it, the theater in this worldly, brought forth, esseque that they had done in the sphere sublunari, earth and water, clothing, or prime matter hylÍ, and the common and universal, the intervention of heaven.

One (and number of the essence) of God's Spirit is here, one, this one man's uniuersitatis visible and material, the soul of the Catholic: polupoikilos, however, that is the manifold (Wis 7.22. Eph. 3.10.) And various were his rays, and sparks, the whole matter a great a cake of the first mass, scattered and broken off, here and there; and in parts of the world, also separated, and in place of the body and in bulk, not the boundaries of separate afterwards, separately and individually, innumerable, universal sparks of one soul, even now the inhabitants. One in the complexity of the: manifold in the unit. Grateful to God in the unity of the majority of cases. And the other side.]

V. Quid est Caelum?

[Google translate: What is heaven?]

Caelum est spiritus aethereus corporalis, uel corpus aethereum spirituale, corruptioni non obnoxium, totius Mundi machinam permeans: superius, uerbo Domini, firmatum, hinc Firmamentum; inferius, massae sublunari toti incorporatum: unius eiusdemque et essentiae et substantiae Caelum unum, id quod inferius, et id quod superius. Illud physicochemia potest manifestari.

Extrema, sine medio, eoque conueniente, coniungi, copulari atque uniri non posse, est unanimis uere philosophantium uox atque consensus. Ruach Elohim, spiritus, (essentia diuinus) increatus, simplicissimus, omnis corporeae molis expers, sponte et per se mobilis, polupoikilos hoc est multiformis, aut formarum plenus, immo ipsissima rerum Forma: Et, Abyssus tenebrosa, triuna, uidelicet, Caelum, terra inanis et uacua, et aqua, Ens a Deo Ipso (cuius solius est proprium ktizein, creare) -- ex nihilo, hoc est de nullo substantiali, aut per se existente materiali principio, primum creatum, corporeum, confuse mixtum, materia ad motum, per se, inefficax: re uera, si quid, extrema sunt. Caeli igitur, medii, extremorum amborum suo modo (quia corpus spirituale, et spiritus corporalis) participis, (yhvh solius uoluntate benigna) interiectu. Ruach Elohim (descendendo demittendoque se per circumferentias partesque abditissimas omnes, et dispergendo in imum uel meditullium, scintillas radiosue fecunditatis suae) ad centrum usque penetrabat, in ens illud creatum, totum: massamque illam seu molem ingentem, rudem, (chaos) confusam atque informem, Mundi futuri seminarium, hylÍn siue materiam lutosam, uirgineam, (nondum enim neque conceperat, neque produxerat antea) forma (semet ipso) sic informauit, et anima animabat impraegnabatque purissima: permeabat, replebat, calorem infundebat, uiuificabat et fecundabat, quod erat Tohu ua Bohu, uacuum atque inane: illuminabat, quod erat tenebrosum; distinguebat, confusum; ornabat, rude ac impolitum; ordinabat indigestum et incompositum: inque eius utero, hoc est centro (cuius et totum adhuc hodie mouet, sustentat atque conseruat) intimoue (spiritu aethereo, Caelo uidelicet, ut dictum, intermediante) concipiebatur, et corpus siue corporeus factus, atque concretus est.

[Google translate: The last point, without an intermediary, and so a suitable, united, joined, and can not be united, is truly of one mind with a philosophical voice, and consent was given. Ruach Elohim, the spirit (divine essence) uncreated, the most simple, devoid of all corporeal mass of their own accord and of itself the thing moved, that is polupoikilos of the manifold, or full of forms, and even very form of things: And, deep dark, triuna, namely, heaven, the earth empty and deserted, and the water, being from God Him (who solely own ktizein to create) - out of nothing, that is because of no substantial, or existing material per se the beginning, the first creature, corporeal, mixed confusedly, to the movement of the matter, per se, ineffective: true thing, if anything, the last are the. Of heaven, then, middle, of the extremes of both in their own way (for a spiritual body, the body and the spirit of) participant, (yhvh alone will kindly) interval. Ruach Elohim (descending parts of the circumference of abditissimas demittendoque itself through all, and scatter in the bottom or meditullium, sparks radiosue fruitfulness of his own) to the center until penetrabat, in being created it, the whole: it massamque or mass of huge and rude, (chaos), and the formless confused, world to come, the seminary, or hylÍn muddy matter, uirgineam, (For as yet he had conceived nor, nor prolonged before) the form of (himself), so informauit, and the soul pure animabat impraegnabatque: permeabat, filled, heat poured out, and uiuificabat fecundabat, which was Tohu ua Bohu, vain and empty: illuminated, which was full of darkness; discriminating, confused; distinction, crude, and rudely; undigested and unadorned ordained: and in her womb, that is the center (and the whole of which moves To this day, sustains, and preserves) intimoue (spirit ethereal, namely heaven, as stated above, intermediante) conceived, and the body or had become corporeal, and is concrete.

[Google translate: How and where was born the son of macrocosmou into the light, etc.?

E semine et sanguine parentis formatus, et ex utero eius, in lucem, naturaliter exclusus: in terra catholica sancta, quam etiamnum feliciter inhabitat, in Saturnio regno: et quamuis mundo ludibrium immundo, in conspectu tamen sapientis pretiosissimus. Catholicus: corpus enim habet catholicon, de hylÍ, puta, primordiali, in statu adhuc uniuersali; non ut (Deo sic ordinante) rerum ceterarum, globi sublunaris, corporum materia, in statu speciali aut particulari, a scintillis Animae Mundi specialium aut particularum propietatum, specificata et (ut ita dicam) particularisata. Vniuersalis quoque conditionis est eius spiritus; uniuersalis et anima, quae scintilla animae mundi catholicae catholica, hoc est uniuersalis naturae proprietatis et operationis. Catholicismus hic solus locum habet: particularimus est soloecismus. Catholicon, non nisi ex catholico. Valeant igitur et discendant procul hinc materiae specialis siue particularis naturae omnes. Addo: Hanc unicam solamque ob causam, per et ex se, potens et solus sufficiens (regeneratus post passionem suam) in fructus entis primi, creati, catholici, speciales aut particulares, tamquam in consanguineos suos, (hinc disce, cur Lapis uegetabilis, animalis, et mineralis.) uires exercere mirificas, catholice, suas, numero simul, omnes. Triunus: Vnus, in composito hoc est in toto: et, quod extra uel citra hunc, non sit alius, in uirtute mirifica, huic similis. Triunus: in substantia, essentia et hypostasi aut subsistentia: tribus distinctis et natura diuersis. Vnde Lapis noster diuinus, caelestis, terrenus. Et, quod ex sale, mercurio et sulphure in Lapidem sit compositus triunum. De ceteris in definitione, uerba praesupponunt mentem.

Catholic: the body, because he has Catholicon, the hylÍ of, for example, primordial, universal in the state still not that (God, so issues) of other things, sublunaris globe, bodies matter, in the state of special or particular, sparks from the soul of the world, or of special particles propietatum, specified and (so to speak) particularisata. Universal condition is also his spirit, and the universal soul, which the Catholic spark of the soul of the Catholic world, that is the universal nature of property and of operation. This is the only place Catholicismus has particular solecism. Catholicon, only by the Catholic. Away, then, and all of a particular nature or a special matter discendant far from here. Addo: solamque for this single cause, by and of itself, sufficient and only able to (after his passion has been regenerated) in the primary kind of being the fruit of, created, Catholics, special, or particular, as it were in his blood relatives, (hence learn, why uegetabilis stone, animal, and mineral.) exercise a wondrous strength, Catholic, their number at the same time, all. Triunus: One, that is, in the whole in the composite, and which was without this or on this side, there is no other, in the power with a wonderful, like this.

[Google translate: How regeneratorie manifested, etc.?]

In regimine triuno. Tu, fili doctrinae, figuram praesentem accurate contemplare, et quodnam sit in opere physicochemico catholico hoc, regimen primum, quodque secundum, philosophice intelleges: de tertio audi. In hoc fit lapidis, cum Mundo maiore, in partibus illius, inseparabilis unio: quae est et dicitur fermentatio. Mysterium harmonicum nota: Quod in cabala est hominis ad monadis simplicitatem reducti, cum Deo unio; id in physicochemia est lapidis plus quam perfecti, cum Macrocosmo, in partibus eius, et quae ex eo sunt, fermentatio. Et, sicuti homo unitus Deo, ratione Dei fit qua Deus humanus aut homo diuinus hoc est qua deificatur; quare et potest quae uult; uult autem quae Deus Ipse: ita et Lapis Philosophorum Mundo maiore, in partibus illius, fermentatus, ratione fermenti transformat se in quodcumque uoluerit, operaturque pro naturis omnium diuersis diuersimode omnia, in omnia, et coaequat se omnibus, cunctis, singulis ac uniuersis. Nonne omnia nomen eius?

Thou, O son of doctrine, the figure carefully contemplate the present, and what is in the work of the Catholic physicochemico this, the governance of the first, and that the second, philosophically understand: hear from the third. This is done in stone, with the greater world, in the parts of that, inseparable union: which is the fermentatio and it is said. The mystery of the harmonious note: That in the cabala is the simplicity of the monad to the man to retreat, the union with God, that in more than a stone's physicochemia perfect, with the macrocosm, in the parts thereof, and which are from the fact, fermentatio. And, as a man united to God, which God becomes the human aspect of God or in man, which deify that is divine, and therefore can right what he wishes and; He will, however, which is God himself, so do the world a major philosophers stone, in the parts of that, fermentation, leaven transforms himself by reason of in whatever he wishes, of all the different natures diuersimode operaturque for all things, in all things, and up to a standard oneself to all men, all, to every one and all.

Operatur secundum corpus, spiritum et animam, in corpus spiritum et animam, Mundi utriusque catholice omnia. Et hoc, proiectionis usu; quae nil aliud, quam Lapidis, Mundo utrique, artificialis applicatio. Vsus eius quoque triunus, quia diuinus, Micro et Macrocosmicus: physice, physicomedice, etc. ut supra. Vide figuram quartam.

[Google translate: He works, according to the body, spirit and soul, into the body of the spirit and the soul, both of the world all things Catholic. And this, the use of the projection, which are nothing else than stone, the world of both parties, the application of the work of art. Whately, he also triunus, because divine, and Micro Macrocosmicus: physically, physicomedice, etc.. as above. See the figure of the fourth.]

X. Potestne Lapis Philosophorum multiplicari?

[Google translate: Can He not be multiplied philosophers stone?]

Tradunt sapientes, quod sic. In qualitate et in quantitate: Estque nil quam operis physicochemici, catholici, cum Lapide glorificato ante fermentationem, in Azoth iterum soluto, per regimen secundum, reiteratio; Quoque saepius reiteratur, eo citius et perfectius, opus absoluitur: idque sic in infinitum.

2. Quemadmodum bonorum mundanorum pars decima solet impendi Deo, in causis piis; nouem uero usui mundano: ita, in contrario, Theosophum decet, decimam dumtaxat Lapidis huius partem, usibus impendere munandis, nouem uero reliquas soli Deo, in proximo, egeno. Quod eleemosynarii Dei, in hospitali hoc magno, est proprium. Sigillum naturae et artis, simplicitas.

[Google translate: As part of the tenth of worldly goods is usually expended to God, in cases pious; nine worldly use, but I will now, in the opposite, THEOSOPHY fitting, only the tenth part of this stone, to expend munandis uses, and nine, however, the rest to God alone, in the next, the needy. That eleemosynarii of God, in this great hospital, is a property. Seal of nature and art, the simplicity.]

Dixi.
