Such a penetrative sulphureous spirit may be made also of Minerals and Metals, which in vertue goeth beyond the spirit of vitriol, that of common salt, and that of allome, _viz._ after the following manner. _The preparation of the volatile spirits of Metals._ Dissolve either Iron or Copper, or Lead or Tin with the acid spirit of vitriol, or of common salt: abstract or draw off the phlegm; then drive the acid spirit again from the Metal, and it will carry along a volatile spirit, which by rectifying must be separated from the corrosive spirit. And such Metallical spirits are more effectual than those that are made of the salts. _The preparation of the volatile spirit of Minerals._ Take of Antimony made into fine pouder, or of golden Marcasite, or of some other sulphureous Mineral, which you please, two parts, mix therewith one part of good purified Salt nitre, and cast in of that mixture a small quantity, and then another, and so forth after the manner above described; and there will come over a spirit which is not inferiour to the former in efficacy and vertue; but it must also be well rectified. _Another way._ Cement what laminated or granulated Metal you please, (except gold) with half as much in weight of common sulphur, closed up in a strong melting pot or crucible, such as doth not let the sulphur go through, for the space of half an hour, until that the sulphur hath penetrated and broken the plates of Metal: Then beat them into powder, mix them with the like quantity in weight of common salt, and so distil it after the way above mentioned, and you will get a volatile spirit of great vertue: and every such spirit is to be used for such special part or member of the Body, as the Metal is proper for, out of which the spirit is made. So silver for the brain; Tinn for the lungs, Lead for the spleen, and so forth. _The spirit of Zinck._ Of Zinck there is distilled both a volatile and also an acid spirit, good for the heart; whether it be made by the help of the spirit of vitriol, or of salt, or of allome: or else by the means of Sulphur; for Zinck is of the nature of gold. _The volatile spirit of the Dross of Regulus Martis._ The black scoria of the _Regulus Martis_, being first faln asunder in the air, yields likewise a very strong sulphureous volatile spirit, not much unlike in vertue unto the former. The like Sulphureous volatile spirits may be made also of other minerals, which for brevities sake we omit, as also in regard, that they are almost the same in vertue. _How to make a white acid, and a red volatile spirit out of salt nitre._
