No prior complete English translation of this text has been found.
The 1673 German work 'Zwey Chymische Tractätlein' is a compilation of two treatises originally written in Latin. While the underlying Latin texts by George Starkey (Eirenaeus Philalethes) and Ferrarius have been translated into English (e.g., 'Secrets Reveal'd', 1669; 'The Mirror of Alchimy', 1597), there is no evidence of an English translation of this specific German edition. Per the instructions, translations from the original language do not preclude a first translation from a secondary language edition.
