* The Lives of Alchemystical Philosophers ; with a critical catalogue of 

 books in occult chemistry and a selection of the most celebrated 

 treatises on the theory and practice of the Hermetic Art. London, 

 1815. pp. 386, 8vo. 



Contains superficial biographies of 45 so-called adepts, a list of 750 alchemi- 

 cal books, and selections from the most incredible treatises on the 

 hermetic art. Bibliographically it is very inexact, giving one-line titles 

 only. The work is quite scarce and commands a price disproportionate 

 to its value for students who read other languages than the English. 

 Published anonymously. For a revised edition of a portion, see 

 Waite, A. E.
