stibium

Keren-Happuk, the name given by Job to one of his daughters, means "horn of stibium."

We use cements when, without stibium, we part silver or copper or both so ingeniously and admirably from gold.

There are besides this, certain other cements which part gold from silver, composed of sulphur, stibium and other ingredients.

The sixth method consists in heating together a bes of the copper and one-sixth of a libra each of sulphur, salt, and stibium.

Some of the alabasti would contain kohl or stibium, some salves and ointments, others perhaps perfumed washes for the complexion.
