by that time the stone is congealed round, And another says: When you shall find whiteness atop in the
glass, be assured that in that whiteness, redness is hidden: and this you must extract: but concoct it while
it becomes all red: for between true whiteness and true redness, there is a certain ash-color: of which it is
said, After whiteness, you cannot err, for increasing the fire, you shall come to an ash-color: of which
another says: Do not set light by the ashes, for God shall give it to you molten: and then at the last the

CHAPTER VII.
How to make projection of the medicine upon any imperfect body.
I have largely accomplished my promise of that great mastery, for making the most excellent Elixir, red
and white. For conclusion, we are to treat of the manner of projection, which is the accomplishment of
the work, the desired and expected joy. The red Elixir turns into a citrine color infinitely, and changes all
metals into pure gold. And the white Elixir does infinitely whiten, and brings every metal to perfect
whiteness. But we know that one metal is farther off from perfection then another, and one more near
then another. And although every metal may by Elixir be reduced to perfection, nevertheless the nearest
are more easily, speedily, and perfectly reduced, then those which are far distant, And when we meet
with a metal that is near to perfection, we are thereby excused from many that are far off. And as for the
metals which of them be near, and which far off, which of them I say be nearest to perfection, if you are
wise and discrete, you shall find to be plainly and truly set out in my Chapters. And without doubt, he
that is so quick sighted in this my Mirror, that by his own industry he can find out the true matter, he
does full well know upon what body the medicine is to be projected to bring it to perfection. For the
forerunners of this Art, who have found it out by their philosophy, do point out with their finger the
direct and plain way, when they say: Nature, contains nature: Nature overcomes nature: and Nature
meeting with her nature, exceedingly rejoices, and is changed into other natures, And in another place,
Every like rejoices in his like: for likeness is said to be the cause of friendship, whereof many
Philosophers have left a notable secret, Know you that the sour does quickly enter into his body, which
may by no means be joined to another body, And in another place, The soul does quickly enter into his
own body, which if you go about to join with another body, you shall loose your labor: for the nearness
itself is more clear. And because corporeal things in this regiment are made incorporeal, and contrariwise
things incorporeal corporeal, and in the shutting up of the work, the whole body is made a spiritual fixed
thing: and because also that spiritual Elixir evidently, whether white or red, is so greatly prepared and
decocted beyond his nature, it is no marvel that it cannot be mixed with a body, on which it is projected,
being only melted. It is also a hard matter to Project it on a thousand thousand and more, and
incontinently to penetrate and transmute them. I will therefore now deliver unto you a great and hidden
secret. one part is to be mixed with a thousand of the next body, and let: all this be surely put into a fit
vessel, and set it in a furnace of fixation, first with a lent fire, and afterwards increasing the fire for three
days, till they be inseparably joined together, and this is a work of three days: then again and finally
every part hereof by itself, must be projected upon another thousand parts of any near body: and this is a
work of one day, Or one hour, or a moment, for which our wonderful God is eternally to be praised.
Here ends the Mirror of Alchemy, composed by the most learned Philosopher, Roger Bacon.
