PORTA, John Baptista (1535 – 1615). Natural Magick. London: Thomas Young, and Samuel Speed, 1658. FIRST ENGLISH EDITION. Handsome blind-tooled calf in period style, banded spine decorated and titled gilt. Engraved half-title, fifteen words and the date rubricated on the title page. 4to. Toole Stott 576 (”engraved title, which is quite rare, contains a portrait of the author, and a representation of the four elements and of Art and nature divided into compartments.”). Some prelims and final leaves rehinged, a few tears professionally mended, usual scattered spots and browning, but overall very good; a handsome example of this important work on all types of curious and pseudo-magical experiments.
