This Relation amazed the Emperess very much; for though in the world she came from, she had heard great reports of the Philosophers-stone, yet had she not heard of any that had ever found it out; which made her believe that it was but a Chymera; she called also to mind, that there had been in the same world a man who had a little Stone which cured all kinds of Diseases outward and inward, according as it was applied; and that a famous Chymist had found out a certain liquor called Alkahest, which by the vertue of its own fire, consumed all diseases; but she had never heard of a Medicine that could renew old Age, and render it beautiful, vigorous and strong: Nor would she have so easily believed it, had it been a medicine prepared by Art; for she knew that Art, being Natures Changeling; was not able to produce such a powerful effect, but being that the Gum did grow naturally, she did not so much scruple at it; for she knew that Natures Works are so various and wonderful, that no particular Creature is able to trace her ways.
