Many of the most interesting manuscript stains are found in the bindings and folios of soiled, heavily-used medical and alchemical texts. Signs of this practical use may be obvious, such as burn marks from furnaces, but innocuous-looking stains (e.g. appearing to be water damage) may contain hidden information about medicinal or chemical solutions, or even heavy metal contamination, which is not evident by sight alone."

Content: 45 amulets, sigils and diagrams, beginning with talismans offering protection against, among other things, neid und haß (anger and hate), den bösen geiß (the evil spirits) and Zauberij (witchcraft), as well as one petitioning Größen Herren Freundschaft (the friendship of great men). Follow the traditional symbols for mercury, copper, gold and at the head of one of the larger talismans, the philosopher’s stone locked within the Seal of Solomon; the AGLA talisman (a notariqon, or kabbalistic acronym, of the biblical phrase ‘Ateh Gibor Le-olam Adonai,’ ‘The Lord is mighty forever.’; and finally further protections against failure in war (‘Est magna potentia in bello […]’), imprisonment (‘Valet si quis foret incarceratus et ligatus catenis ferreis […]’) and the plague (‘Remedium probabilissimu[m] contra pestem’). The final diagram represents the sigil of Ameth (or Sigillum Dei Aemeth), containing the names of God and various angels. The sigil is best known in relation to the Enochian workings of John Dee (1527-1608/9), the great British mathematician, astronomer, astrologer, occult philosopher, and advisor to Queen Elizabeth I, as he was supposedly instructed to re-create it by angels he contacted during his scrying sessions with the occultist and spirit medium Edward Kelley.
