EWALDT, Benjamin (1674-1719). Diatriba de Pulvere Sympathetico. 1702. Pamphlet, 8vo. Rewrapped in modern paper. Final page has section torn away, repaired with Japanese paper. Fascinating dissertation on “sympathetic dust,” also known as the powder of sympathy, which was used to heal wounds by applying it to the weapons which had caused them.
