The book is divided into 32 chapters, each of which deals with a different aspect of alchemy, such as the preparation of materials, the purification of the soul, the transmutation of metals, and the attainment of spiritual enlightenment. The book also contains several illustrations and diagrams that explain the alchemical processes and symbols.
