La lumière sortant par soi-mesme des ténèbres ou veritable théorie de la pierre des philosophes, écrite en vers italiens, avec un commentaire ...
A 1693 French alchemical treatise by Otto Tachenius, published in Paris by Laurent d'Houry, explaining the philosopher's stone in verse with a commentary; its small woodcut ornaments and emblems are set among the printed text. The pictures are crude black-on-cream woodcut flowers, a grotesque face within foliage and scrolls, a potted bouquet, and an alchemical sign of a crescent over a disc on a stem, offering a designer hand-cut botanical borders, ornamental vignettes, and occult symbol motifs.
