The Wandering Jew Visits Agrippa in Florence
In autumn evening Florence, Cornelius Agrippa entertains a mysterious visitor who seeks a magical mirror to conjure the image of his dead daughter Miriam. The mirror shows a distant scene where the man recognizes Miriam and pleads for one word from her, then collapses in shock as the vision fades. The stranger reveals himself as the Wandering Jew, vanishing after a tense exchange.

Remarkable ossified man and steam power notes
A detailed tale describes a man whose joints have turned to bone over twenty years, leaving him immobile yet able to speak clearly. It mentions blindness from age twenty six, nail loss, nails growing as hornlike projections, and perpetual cheerful demeanor. The piece also discusses steam's expansive power and a broad moral about blaming others for one’s own faults.
