Titles invoked when the author declines to repeat accounts of gold’s arcana and their powers. These references are evidence of how the present text frames its own omissions, not additional books supplied within this edition. They also do not by themselves settle historical authorship. The deferred subjects include extraction of the gold tincture and fuller accounts of vitriol and sulphur’s virtues.
