First Translation

No prior complete English translation of this text has been found.

Extensive searches across multiple scholarly and library catalogs (including LOC, UNESCO Index Translationum, and general search engines) yielded no evidence of an English translation for the 1782 German alchemical work 'Hermes Trismegists wahrer alter Naturweg' (often associated with the pseudonym I.C.H. or Jolyfief). Given the specialized and obscure nature of this 18th-century hermetic text, it is highly probable that no English translation exists.
