ARTEPHIUS. Liber secretus, nec non Saturni trismegisti, sive fratris Heliae de Assisio Libellus. Frankfurt: Iennisius, 1685.
12° (145 x 77mm). Woodcut illustrations, ornamental initials, headpieces. (Light soiling.) 19th-century marbled boards (quite rubbed along extremities). Provenance: library stamp on title.
SCARCE, second edition. Duveen describes Liber secretus as ‘a very rare work… It is probably the second edition. The second work by Helias the Franciscan is illustrated with 12 rather crude woodcuts showing the various stages of making the Philosopher's Stone within the Hermetic Vase. Very little seems to be known about this latter work’. According to Ferguson, the first edition of this work was printed in Amsterdam in 1678. According to RBH and ABPC only one copy has sold at auction, in 1998. Duveen, p.29 (lacking title); Ferguson I, p.51; VD17 23:277037N.
