The anonymous treatise The Stone of the Philosophers, most likely dating from the 17th century, was included by Arthur Edward Waite - a British poet, writer, Freemason, esotericist and one of the greatest scholars of the Western Mystery Tradition - in his Collectanea Chemica, a collection of some curious Alchemical treatises which was published in London in 1893.
