liquorem ardentem ex saccaro
saturni resurgere, dum salibus
a plumbo absorptis vis coer
cendi spiritus, retinendique
retunditur; quam spiritum
vini veterem interire, et no-
vum velut miraculo de me
tallico corpore nasci.
L. Cum ergo plerumque
res magis larvas sumant,
quam naturam deponant;
minus mirum est, tam mul
la laboratoriis et sodinis com-
munia prodire. Nostro insti
tuto suffecerit aliqua in spe-
cimen attulitse. Cinnabarin
nativam hydraragri venae
praebent; nec id in Idria tan-
tum compertum prope Aoria
Ticum mare, sed et in nostris
oris iuala Walchenredam, ut
produnt Annales, et nunc quo
que reliquiae leguntur, quales
et a Bructere à se afferri sunt
qui ractant. Nemo autem
ignorat, ainnabarin etiam
ea sulphure et hydrargyro
per artem parari, ut de arti-
moniali illa nil dicam; nam
et antimonio verum sulphur
non deest etiam arte elicien
dum; magno indicio, quod nos
Productiones Laboratoriis et
fodinis communes. )
