Albert original: "Albus"; likely referring to Albertus Magnus (c. 1200–1280), a scholar often cited in alchemical texts says these things. The altar-gift itself is a bluish-gray original: "glaucum"; a pale green or gray-blue color often associated with the early stages of mineral transformation throughout

And know that the flower of the sun the 'Flower of the Sun' refers to gold or the solar principle reached during the chemical work

spirit. And observe in the lower part of Book 3 what is said by Theophilus
in his first book, On the Way of Fire, where he says to clarify and to coagulate Theophilus Presbyter was a 12th-century author known for his manual on medieval arts, including metalwork
and he says the same see... published in the same book it seems for the spirit toward
fire; hence he says it is to be found through substance and temperament, and in this same thing
it is said. Polinus at the end of his [work] reverently [mentions] the flux. Flux refers to a substance used to promote melting or fusion And note, it cannot
be said to happen indirectly unless it converts the whole into water and sulfur, and [it is] converted

B[lessed] Augustine In alchemical literature, "Augustine" often refers to pseudo-Augustinian texts that were given spiritual-chemical interpretations [concerning] whitening original: "dealbatio"; the Albedo stage, signifying the purification of the matter

as the spirit; that the substance, by substantiating, which in many of these places only these things.
We say that the spirit does not move, through number 3, because it corrupts the thing itself, wrapped

the philosopher's division in the washing of bodies. It is proper that one whitens
and the other reddens, not at the same time then... By returning to a better home,
let the king be crowned, and see this at the end of yellowish-brown of reddening. The "reddening" (Rubedo) is the final stage of the Great Work. The "crowning of the king" is a common metaphor for the perfection of the Philosopher's Stone or the creation of gold.
