Pearce the Black Monke Upon the Elixir - (audiobook) - Theatrum Chemicum Britannicum
"Our Gold and Sylver ben no common plate"
— Pearce the Black Monke Upon The Elixer —
Also known (popularly, originally) as Terra Terrae Philosophicae, this short poem was attributed to Sir George Ripley. But did he actually write it, or someone else... the attribution to Ripley was questioned by Elias Ashmole, who found it written in a much older manuscript, attributed to one Pearce (the Black Monk).
An alchemical poem weaving between three positions;
1 - physical material experiments,
2 - criticizing alchemy and showing it as NOT what covetous men see (the conversion of non-metals, or even other metals into GOLD),
3 - another voice, "Listen to my Daughter Megg".
