John Dastin's Alchemical Dream (audiobook) - Theatrum Chemicum Britannicum
"Not yet full sleeping, nor yet full waking, but between twain, lying in a trance..."
— Dastin's Dream —
This is a short six-page poem in Theatrum Chemicum Britannicum.
I spent about 2 weeks thinking about Dastin's Dream, reading and recording it a few times to get it the way I like, after uploading Chaucer's Chanon's Yeoman's Tale.
Dastin's vision brings a view to sacrifice of the precious, highest, for the corrupt and lower.
The dream strikes me similarity as the book of Revelation in The Bible; even the authors bear the same name. Elias Ashmole writes of this work of Dastin, being a relatively current (as of 1650s) English translation, in agreement with the Vision of Dastin, from Latin. Ashmole also writes he did not know when Dastin lived, but was long ago, before John Pitts and John Bale.
In the 2020s, a user of Wikipedia can find that John Dastin was born around 1293, and lived until around 1386; and so was contemporary of Geoffrey Chaucer; Dastin is known for several writings, including several that apparently were misattributed to others. In web searches, John Dastin can be found by looking up several different names. John (Johan, Johannis, Ioannis); also Dastine, Dastyn, Daustin, Dastinus, Astin, Astinus; Joannes Dacius, Johannes Anglicus. You get the idea.

"There is nothing which were more expedient,
Then to choose one out amongst us all,
Without spot all clear of his intent,
For you to dye by his own assent,
To save the people from their Damnation."
