A Threefold Alchemical Journey Through the Book of Lambspring

A clue to this is given in the title page illustration which shows a threefold furnace,  and this is hinted at further by the fact that Emblems 1-5, and 6-10 have short epigrams  placed under each emblem, while the sequence 11-15 does not have this feature. Once we look at the emblems in this way distinct patterns can be seen. The first layer of five emblems deal with the different facets of polarities in our inner world.
