2OO The Triumphal Chariot of A ntimony. 



you may discover the rest, so that the 

 fulness of God's wonderful gifts to men 

 may be made known before the end of 

 the world. I return to my Monastery, 

 where I mean to devote myself to further 

 study, and, if possible, to elucidate the 

 secrets of vitriol, common sulphur, and 

 the magnet, their origin, preparation, 

 and virtues. 



May the God and Lord of Heaven 

 and Earth vouchsafe unto us health in 

 time here, and hereafter salvation, with 

 eternal rest to our souls, on thrones of 

 joy and gladness, world without end ! 

 Amen. 



Thus I conclude this Treatise on 

 Antimony. Pay particular attention to 

 what has been said of the red oil of 

 Antimony, which is prepared from highly 

 purified sulphur, and of the spirit which 

 is prepared from its salt ; compare these 

 operations with what I have written con- 

 cerning the Fire Stone, and then put the 

 two together. For in this way you will 

 run down the deer which you have been 

 pursuing for so long.
