The which doth not onely illustrate all obscure places, as well in his philosophical and medicinal as chymical writings, and explain those hard places to be understood; but also do so abundantly supply those which are defective, that the learned and the unlearned, the highest and the lowest, and more, the meanest workmen and husbandmen, may sufficiently be able to comprehend that Glauber hath in all his writings, written the pure and simple truth, and hath again brought to light the most noble art of alchymy which hath so long lain hid in darkness hitherto ; and hath discovered it for the common good of mankind."
