— 409 — the secret of how to make gold, but their efforts are in vain ; they labour fruitlessly, bent over a great alchemist's brazier. Picture XIII There is only one book that the doctor will not shew his pupil. He, himself, pores over it in the silent watches of the night. Twardowski, unseen, manages to observe him one night ; he sees how the old man , after studying his mysterious book , conjures up the Devil himself. In the midst of smoke and flames, threatening fig ures appear and surround the sage. In a few seconds all vanishes and the young man finds only the dead body of his master. Picture XIV Twardowski has inherited the laboratory and carries on his profession as doctor. We see him deeply meditating on the unfathomable secrets of nature, thus disregarding his father's advice. Picture XV He is very successful as a doctor. Neta, therefore, decides to marry him. We assist at their marriage at the church of Our Lady at Cracow. Noblemen, relations of the young doctor, mingle with the burghers of the city and University students.
