First sentence: TAKE of the filings of gold, or thin beaten gold, one ounce: put it into a small but strong glass; pour upon it two or three ounces of our best Alkahest; fit to the vessel an air-tight head, and to this apply a large recipient, carefully luted, for, when the spirit comes over, it passes with great violence, and searches everywhere for vent, being the most fiery of spirits, and very subtle withal.
