Unheard-of Curiosities/Ⅱ

Chapters : That the Persians are unjustly blamed, concerning the Curiosities of their Magicke, Sculpture, and Astrology. That for want of understanding Aristotle aright, men have condemned the power of Figures, and concluded very many things, both against this Philosopher, and against all sound Philosophy. The power of Artificiall Images is proved, by that of those that are found Naturally imprinted on Stones, and Plants, commonly called Gamahe, or Camaieu, and Signatures That, according to the opinion of the Eastern men, Figures, and Images may be so prepared, under certaine Constellations, as that they shal have the power, Naturally, and without the aide of any Demon, or Divel, to drive away noisome beasts, allay Winds, Thunder, and Tempests, and to cure diverse kinds of Diseases. That the Objections which are made against Talismanical Figures, make not any thing at all against their Power.
