1. They said brass was an example of a human
A living soul, spirit, and body

2. And they wanted to create a medicine on
This true example, everyone thought

3. And they were confused and did not know
The way, though the way was new

4. They gathered strange things from their natures
To bury or crush and destroy by hand

5. Until when they concocted their medicine
They cast their medicine upon it, and it spoiled

6. It took on no dye they hoped for, nor
Upon the fire of melting, any firmness

7. And if they had gathered strange things in
Management, the seeker would have succeeded and found

8. Or did they not see our wise ones gathered
Between strange things a ratio and birth

9. They made its lows its highs
So that the descending might climb and ascend

10. And the thick body was refreshed with the
Infusions and the temperament was restored

11. And the subtle spirit was embodied in this
Solution, it met with that and that knotted

12. Until when their females dissolved
In the sea, the embryo stood and sat

13. And time passed over it, then it brought forth
From that union, good children
