AINSWORTH, WILLIAM H., AURIOL OR THE ELIXIR OF LIFE.
USA Wildside Press 2002 First Edition Reprint Private Press Trade Paperback Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall Fine 200pp. AURIOL: The Elixir of Life. Flashes of light passed before Auriol's eyes, and strange noises smote his ears. The furnace breathed forth flames and mephitic vapors; the spiral worm of the alembic became red hot, and seemed filled with molten lead; the skeletons grinned and gibbered; the monstrous sea-fish belched forth fire and smoke; the bald decapitated head opened its eyes, and fixed them, with a stony glare, on the young man; while the dead alchemist shook his hand menacingly at him. A weird and spine-tingling classic from the author of The Lancashire Witches.
