Inconsistent quantities and incomplete clauses

Meaning

The supplied edition preserves numerical inconsistencies in reserved portions and incomplete syntax rather than silently repairing them. Part II: matter and the work · unit 14 ends a comparison without its object; the following passages do not consistently describe the portions held back. Nature’s Demonstration to the Erring Alchemist · unit 20 contains an unfinished parenthetical clause. These are limits of the supplied reading, not invitations to produce a more precise recipe.

Other character-level questions also remain qualified. The body prints warflüssigen, while note n39 calls the related form a period spelling for wax-like flow; that historical spelling claim has not been independently established in this lexicon. The later explicit wax comparison supports the local sense, not the spelling rule. Eiβ in the ice comparison contains a beta character in the supplied text. It is preserved without claiming that a new facsimile collation has settled the original type or without assigning it chemical significance.
