________________ -119 Make pieces of both abhināgā (a kind of lead ?) and ubhināgā (a kind, of lead ?), give mercury below them and borax above (them). Carpața says : Put on (golden) bangles. Tāke orpiment ţā 1, golden pyrites tā į, sulphide or mercury țā. į realgar tā }, mercury țā 1, copper tā } and, silver māsā tā and melt them by putting them together on fire. Make their kaņțakavedhipatra (thorn-piercing, leaf), rub the medicine with the juice of Solanum nigrum. (Kākamācirasena). The whole thing is to be cooked in an iron vessel (bow for 3 praharas and smeared (on the metal leaf as mentioned above). On its drying up, melt it in a closed crucible. It is to be heated for a prahara. It is heard that there becomes gold, the support of the travellers.” Kill lead in Hāļavilāsaņini (a kind of vanaspati) and Anurata Nāli(ri) (a kind of Vanaspati gondhabhādali which is a medicine for dysentry), fix mercury by killing lead; Carpața saysr (it) becomes gold.3 Keep brass cooked in these two Hātavilāsaņini and Anavaranārı (a kind of Vanaspati). Blackness of that brass is removed. Misery and poverty all go away* (because of producing gold). Lead is killed with three roastings (Puțas) like vermilion. One sixteenth part of it pierces into silver and silver gets converted into gold. Kill mineral calamine in salt, rule over the four corners (of the world). Nātha says "do not think (doubt) in mind. Misery of poverty will completely go away." Take many knotted (ghanaganthi) Ayapomia Reniformis and manyfruited (bahuphali-Cantichorus) whose living is in the well and pond (or at the bottom of the well). If only mercury is mixed with them, poverty will be destroyed (removed). Ayapomia Reniforms and C. antichorus-both of them grow at the bottom of pond. Mercury is killed by the first puța (roasting) with their juice; there becomes gold by the second roasting.S 1. SRSS.. Ch. 1. 15 2. SRSS., Ch. 1. 16 3. SRSS., Ch. 1. 17 4. SRSS., Ch. 1. 18 5.
