     When the 🜔 of Wisdom or Lapis philosophorum has passed its 7 Imbibitions and is thorougly^[sic] fixed, take thereof One part and three parts of pure ☉ and let them melt together in a good 🝥, with a Lid luted on, and Keep it in fusion during 3 or 4 days in the 🜂, and the added ☉ will become brittle and glassy and become the metallic tinging Medicine.
