 | | Mellon MS 19 ALCHEMICAL MISCELLANY, in French and Latin London, unsigned, partly dated during June and July 1480 19.1 Arnold of Villanova. |
 | | 159v, 29.] [19.19: Anonymous, Medicinal and alchemical recipes and procedures, in Latin, not identified.] SUMMARY: It has already been remarked that MS 18 bears a relationship, yet to be determined, to MS 19, and it is conceivable that both were written by a single individual, namely Franciscus de Traversagnis, despite entirely distinct hands. |
 | | Its contents combine an extended series of mystical or speculative alchemies, including a number of French translations not noted in the literature consulted, and a long series of wholly practical procedures, demonstrating that interest in one aspect of alchemy did not preclude interest in the other. |
