It is said at the end of Book 2 that wine is thus composed from water so that it might be near to both whiteness albedothe second major stage of the alchemical process, representing purification and silver and redness rubedothe final stage of the work, representing perfection and gold when Rosinus original: "Rosinus"; the Latinized name for Zosimos of Panopolis, a 3rd-century Egyptian alchemist says in his Two Principles that it does not sit, it is missing elsewhere, and it should redden in time and by practice.
Theophilus says: "Until the flower is made to be crushed?" He responds: "It seems that it is through the liquefier." Theophilus is likely referring to a filter or a specific type of furnace worker who manages the melting of the substance
And let him dry out the white water. But because he says it is through the spirit, let him call the moisture white, because it does not first redden the moisture. Likewise, the things having been liquefied are to be named the Mastery original: "magisterium"; the completed alchemical process or the Stone itself when the proper whiteness succeeds, as he says, and otherwise? concerning smoke?.
Aristotle: to flow to the earth of the earth. Now however he divides the saying. marculu?
In minerals and portals?, namely through water. Aristotle [mentions] ethalie original: "ethalie," likely a corruption of the Greek 'aethalia,' referring to soot or volatile sublimates—that is, water without them—and if the error reaches the rule, cal? laughs and they moisten the spirit. The Philosopher In medieval texts, "The Philosopher" usually refers specifically to Aristotle in this place and [to] Bonellus Bonellus is a frequent figure in the Turba Philosophorum, an early alchemical assembly text says that whatever is neighboring, at the end of the spirits and the red [substances].
Just like the orchidium, and because he says it ought not be in the middle until it is seen of the spirits in the earth. And then the earth makes it red, and in a short time the Whiteness [appears].
Note The Appearance original: "Apparitio" occurs when the true, redder color succeeds; and of these 21 greater, namely they say there, it is said that in the appearance, the color arises and reddens. And conversely, the Philosopher in his Discovery says that under the leader all colors appeared which can be expressed at the end, just as in wine all colors are found.
So says Diomedes, that it does not exit the place from the mouth; among us he says it is done. He says. Bapa likely a corruption of a name like Bubaphon, a character from the Turba Philosophorum says: The bosom [or curve] makes a bath, not of the bath the 'bath' or balneum refers to the bain-marie, a method of gentle heating, because there nevertheless the prudent men ought [to see] two colors and the heart? of the wine, which is by faith. He says the same here in the 22nd distinction. But on the leaf:
Anaxagoras calls that a bath of those stretching out [...] just like wine, which is generated just as by a wife—namely, it is generated at the same time.
Plato says: "Then divide the water into two parts." The flower which he says through his poison original: "venenum"; in alchemy, 'poison' often refers to a transformative or corrosive chemical agent rather than a literal toxin which he divides into two parts because it alone makes the appearance of color. He liquefies two frozen things. They say. Linon likely Linus, a legendary poet often cited in alchemical lists of authorities says it is direct and that you should seek how in time, sometimes ruling the heart, the flower is what is said through the heart.
