"‘Tiriel’, [Blake's] first attempt [at poetry], was only partly successful – which is probably why, though made the subject of several of his illustrations, it remained
in manuscript. There, more than in any of his subsequent works, he drew on recognizable sources for his nomenclature. Tiriel, the chief and eponymous character, derived his name from the quality figuring in alchemical works as ‘the intelligence of mercury’ and this is no doubt a key to the part he plays in the poem’s plot, which can be viewed as an allegorical narrative about the loss of human visionary powers." - John Beer, 'William Blake: a Literary Life' (Palgrave Macmillan), p. 88.

Towards a Context for Ibn Umayl, Known to Chaucer as the Alchemist ‘Senior’ by Peter Star

"Ibn Umayl’s position in alchemy accords with Hermetic doctrines, and may have developed as a traditionalist reaction to developments in alchemy around the time of Jabir ibn Hayyan. The paper offers an overview of the influence Ibn Umayl on western literature, beginning with a quotation from The Canterbury Tales which shows knowledge of Ibn Umayl."
