LJS 382 - [Alchemical compendium]
As above, so below...
Alchemy! This manuscript is a collection of alchemical notes gathered by Georg Hayniger. It includes recipes, with several of them dedicated to potable gold (aurus potabilis) and tincture of cinnabar (tinctura de cinobrio), suggesting a focus on medical applications of alchemy. There are several references to authors such as Arnaldus de Villanova, Ramon Lull, Johannes de Rupescissa, and Albertus Magnus. It was possibly written in Vienna around 1476 CE.
