In all which the chymical doctrines are illustrated upon a new hypothesis or spagirick course, composed agreeable to practical philosophy, and the best authority of art, for mysteries treated of by Cartes, Starkey, Sylvius, Glauber, Helmont, Paracelsus, and others, are explicated and exemplarified, ... and so fitted in order for the publick service. In which is contained, a philosophical description of the astrum lunare microcosmicum, or phospheros.
