Hl.

Acclamations of friends regarding the Six Books on the Magnet by WILLIAM GILBERT, M.D., augmented and illustrated by Mr. WOLFGANG LOCHMANN.

An ornate woodcut initial 'C' features a classical or biblical scene with a figure in a landscape with trees and distant buildings.

You labor diligently to fly through the mouths of men,
And do not believe that the matter can lack success:
Now you call back again Gilbert, buried in darkness and death,
Whose power you strive to make shine again with your torch:
Your will, Wolfgang, pleases me; oh, if only you would continue!
For posterity will carry your name on its lips.

In honor of Mr. WILLIAM GILBERT and WOLFGANG LOCHMAN.

An ornate woodcut initial 'H' contains a figure in a landscape.

Many bitterly marvel at the powers of the Herculean referring to the lodestone, sometimes called the Herculean stone glowing stone, always looking to the pole original: "cardine" with a certain orientation, with open jaws; these are gifts of nature obvious to all: But if the unknowing crowd could turn over these signed powers with genius, it would fill all things with wonder, as these gifts are only revealed to the skilled. But because the present Author has published everything, let him who aspires to conquer through his own genius draw from this source.
