water may
burn without flame,
fire may
wet the hands,
a toad may
grow fat on milk,
gold was
sewn into the earth,
a seed
is needed if you want wheat,
fire loves
to burn, but gold
does not love to make gold,
as coral
grows beneath the waters and
hardens
in the air, so does the stone, which
is laid upon the earth, and
exalted upon the mountains
and dwells in the air, and feeds in
the river,
it is a white smoke which is water,
and a red lion's fetid water
from these
two waters is one water made
which won't wet the hands
nor cover the head, neither will it
bear up the body, it will not slake
the thirst, but has itself a great thirst
for gold
____________________________
the red lion and the black dog
these two
in the sepulcher
do bite
one another
cruelly, and by
their poison tooth
and furious intent
they never leave each other,
if the cold doesn't hinder,
until both of them
by their venom slaver
and severe hurts
are of one gore over all
the parts of their bodies,
and at length finishing one another
are stewed in their proper venom
here they lose their putrefaction,
their first nature, to take both
semblance and center
of living and permanent water
