The Tomb of Semiramis

While the author of "Tomb of Semiramis" is not explicitly known, it was printed in 1684 by William Cooper. A short work, it provides equal parts theory and practice with regards to alchemy and, unlike many works, specifically cites other alchemists and philosophers within its content to prove its veracity. This manuscript follows some aspects of "A Work of Saturn" by Hollandus verbatim in its treatment of the use of the philosopher's stone. An easily dissolved medicine taken in wine.
