"Who hasn't wanted an extensive, two-volume dictionary of alchemical terms and concepts? Charles Rainsford did! Rainsford was an 18th century British army officer, fellow of the Royal Society, and alchemist, who collected books about his interests. His collection included this translation of a Frence mytho-Hermetic dictionary, now UPenn Ms. Codex 1686."
