Natürliches Zauber-Buch oder neuer Spiel-Platz der Kunste by Simon Witgeest, 1707
 
'Natürliches Zauber-Buch oder neuer Spiel-Platz der Kunste' by Simon Witgeest is a German version of the author's earlier book 'Het natuurlyk tover-boek', which was published in Dutch.

The earliest version of 'Natürliches Zauber-Buch' that I can find was published in 1707. Earlier versions may exist.

A full copy of the 1707 edition can be accessed here.
