Alchemy texts archives - The 'Herbarium' of ParacelsusBack to Alchemy texts archive.Date: Wed, 17 Jun 1998 From: Brian May Does anyone know anything about the "Herbarium" of Paracelsus which describes the occult properties of thirty-six plants, and also minerals and precious stones? Sometime ago Adam suggested some old Eglish texts to me but I could not find them here in my town. Would there be any other source? Thanks and regards, Deise From: Adam McLean Date: 17th June 1998 Paracelsus his dispensatory and chirurgery... Faithfully Englished, by. W.D. London. 1656.
