calcination which is made by the force of Fire and the natural calcination; that the first
destroys the body and consumes the greatest part of its radical humidity; but the second
does not only preserve the humidity of the body in calcining it, but still considerably
augments it. Experience will give you knowledge in the Practice of this great truth, for
you will in effect find that this philosophical calcination, which sublimes and distills the
Stone in calcining it, much augments its humidity; the reason is that the igneous spirit of
the natural fire is corporified in the substances which are analogous to it. Our stone is an
Astral Fire which sympathizes with the Natural Fire, and which, as a true Salamander
receives it nativity, is nourished and grows in the Elementary Fire, which is geometrically
proportioned to it.
