Quinta Essentia - The Stone As a Key Lyrics

Governed by the force of hidden purpose we have found
As simple as this choice has been, the meaning has been profound
Apply yourself to know the secret fire of the wise
As it has been said, the stone, that which work the wonders of the art

As one door opens, so shall many
By separation, the resplendent stone is formed as the symbol of the stone is used as a key
Conversion of the elements raising the subtle above the pure (Over the think and terrestrial)
The mercury is the body, the which is beneath

Salt and sulfur, spirit and soul
In vessel united yet still there is more
Distillation of the water of life to make wine from the vine of the wise

Diverse effects of the elixirs brew. Hermetic triumph of a higher plane
Fermented level of toxicity to enable touch of the inner being

The choice to use the sacred keys of the Earth
The artist philosopher's alchemical work transforms the fallacy of man into great strengths
Within yourself and the earth you will find the hidden stone
Unaware are the masses. The secret stays unknown
