 | | Mellon MS 1 APOLLONIUS (Tyanensis?) Ars notoria, sive Flores aurei France (or North Italy?), about 1225 Parchment codex in Latin, 259 x 165, ff. |
 | | [remainder blank.] [Apollonius, Ars notoria, sive Flores aurei, TK 485, 489, 490.] SUMMARY: Occasional errors by the scribe, corrected by himself, suggest that he copied an earlier manuscript of this text, which he had some difficulty in reading. |
 | | Thus, while it does not describe any alchemical procedure, the work of Apollonius may have had a profound influence on the creation of the principal early works of speculative alchemy, which are of later date. |
