What reading level is The Triumphal Chariot of Antimony book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
First of all, it is wonderful that every extract made with spirit of wine should have purgative properties ; while an extract of glass of Antimony, first made with vinegar, and (after the purging away of the vinegar) extracted with spirit of wine, retains not a trace of its purgative properties, but cleanses the system by means of sweats and salivary excretion through the mouth, purifies the blood, cures pulmonary disease, re- lieves asthma, and the most inveterate coughs and colds ; and is a m...ost ad- mirable medicine.
Another extract of Antimony is pre- The Triumphal Chariot of Antimony. 129 pared in the following way : Pulverize crude Antimony, pour to it strong min- eral vinegar, put in vessel, close well, and expose to the gentle rays of the sun. After some time the vinegar will assume a blood-red colour. Filter the extract, and distil again in an alembic ; it will then exhibit some admirable and beauti-V ful colours.
This oil is red as blood, has a considerable sediment, and is of the greatest medicinal value, especially in the cure of leprosy.
