Note

Cosmogony and natural philosophy, synthesizing all the speculativecurrents, from Pythagoras to Paracelsus & Kircher, in a mystic pansophic interpretation of the first chapter of Genesis, the six days of creation plus the seventh day, this in ten parts: 1. The Sabbath of rest amid the music of the spheres; 2-10. simultaneously the nine muses & the nine spheres (two supernal & seven planets).
The 1636 marginal headings seem to show some numerological intent, included are speculations on Atlantis & America; the author announces as a work in progress: Nove Atlantis Insula, vel Hieroglyphica antiquorum philosophia, which apparently never appeared.
Includes index.
