The
rudimentary
laboratory-in
addition
to
a
profusion
of
pots
,
funnels
,
retorts
,
filters
,
and
sieves
-
was
made
up
of
a
primitive
water
pipe
,
a
glass
beaker
with
a
long
,
thin
neck
,
a
reproduction
of
the
philosopher
's
egg
,
and
a
still
the
gypsies
themselves
had
built
in
accordance
with
modern
descriptions
of
the
three-armed
alembic
of
Mary
the
Jew
.
Along
with
those
items
,
Melqufades
left
samples
of
the
seven
metals
that
corresponded
to
the
seven
planets
,
the
formulas
of
Moses
and
Zosimus
for
doubling
the
quantity
of
gold
,
and
a
set
of
notes
and
sketches
concerning
the
processes
of
the
Great
Teaching
that
would
permit
those
who
could
interpret
them
to
undertake
the
manufacture
of
the
philosopher
's
stone
.
Seduced
by
the
simplicity
of
the
formulas
to
double
the
quantity
of
gold
,
Jose
Arcadio
Buendfa
paid
court
to
Orsula
for
several
weeks
so
that
she
would
let
him
dig
up
her
colonial
coins
and
increase
them
by
as
many
times
as
it
was
possible
to
subdivide
mercury
.
Orsula
gave
in
,
as
always
,
to
her
husband
's
unyielding
obstinacy
.
Then
Jose
Arcadio
Buendfa
threw
three
doubloons
into
a
pan
and
fused
them
with
copper
filings
,
orpiment
,
brimstone
,
and
lead
.
He
put
it
all
to
boil
in
a
pot
of
castor
oil
until
he
got
a
thick
and
pestilential
syrup
which
was
more
like
common
caramel
than
valuable
gold
.
In
risky
and
desperate
processes
of
distillation
,
melted
with
the
seven
planetary
metals
,
mixed
with
hermetic
mercury
and
vitriol
of
Cyprus
,
and
put
back
to
cook
in
hog
fat
for
lack
of
any
radish
oil
,
Orsula
's
precious
inheritance
was
reduced
to
a
large
piece
of
burnt
hog
cracklings
that
was
firmly
stuck
to
the
bottom
of
the
pot
.
When
the
gypsies
came
back
,
Orsula
had
turned
the
whole
population
of
the
village
against
them
.
12
But
curiosity
was
greater
than
fear
,
for
that
time
the
gypsies
went
about
the
town
making
a
deafening
noise
with
all
manner
of
musical
instruments
while
a
hawkeran
nounced
the
exhibition
of
the
most
fabulous
discovery
of
the
Naciancenes
.
So
that
everyone
went
to
the
tent
and
by
paying
one
cent
they
saw
a
youthful
Mel-qufades
,
recovered
,
unwrinkled
,
with
a
new
and
flashing
set
of
teeth
.
Those
who
remembered
his
gums
that
had
been
destroyed
by
scurvy
,
his
flaccid
cheeks
,
and
his
withered
lips
trembled
with
fear
at
the
final
proof
of
the
gypsy
's
supernatural
power
.
The
fear
turned
into
panic
when
Melqufades
took
out
his
teeth
,
intact
,
encased
in
their
gums
,
and
showed
them
to
the
audience
for
an
instant-a
fleeting
instant
in
which
he
went
back
to
being
the
same
decrepit
man
of
years
past-and
put
them
back
again
and
smiled
once
more
with
the
full
control
of
his
restored
youth
.
Even
Jose
Arcadio
Buen-dfa
himself
considered
that
Melqufades
'
knowledge
had
reached
unbearable
extremes
,
but
he
felt
a
healthy
excitement
when
the
gypsy
explained
to
him
atone
the
workings
of
his
false
teeth
.
It
seemed
so
simple
and
so
prodigious
at
the
same
time
that
overnight
he
lost
all
interest
in
his
experiments
in
alchemy
.
He
underwent
a
new
crisis
of
bad
humor
.
He
did
not
go
back
to
eating
regularly
,
and
he
would
spend
the
day
walking
through
the
house
.
"
Incredible
things
are
happening
in
the
world
,
"
he
said
to
Orsula
.
"
Right
there
across
the
river
there
are
all
kinds
of
magical
instruments
while
we
keep
on
living
like
donkeys
.
"
Those
who
had
known
him
since
the
foundation
of
Macondo
were
startled
at
how
much
he
had
changed
under
Melqufades
'
influence
.
13
At
first
Jose
Arcadio
Buendfa
had
been
a
kind
of
youthful
patriarch
who
would
give
instructions
for
plant-ing
and
advice
for
the
raising
of
children
and
animals
,
and
who
collaborated
with
everyone
,
even
in
the
physical
work
,
for
the
welfare
of
the
community
.

Since
his
house
from
the
very
first
had
been
the
best
in
the
village
,
the
others
had
been
built
in
its
image
and
likeness
.
It
had
a
small
,
well-lighted
living
roost
,
a
dining
room
in
the
shape
of
a
terrace
with
gaily
colored
flowers
,
two
bedrooms
,
a
courtyard
with
a
gigantic
chestnut
tree
,
a
well
kept
garden
,
and
a
corral
where
goats
,
pigs
,
and
hens
lived
in
peaceful
communion
.
The
only
animals
that
were
prohibited
,
not
just
in
his
house
but
in
the
entire
settlement
,
were
fighting
cocks
.
15
Orsula
's
capacity
for
work
was
the
same
as
that
of
her
husband
.
Active
,
small
,
severe
,
that
woman
of
un-breakable
nerves
who
at
no
moment
in
her
life
had
been
heard
to
sing
seemed
to
be
everywhere
,
from
dawn
until
quite
late
at
night
,
always
pursued
by
the
soft
whispering
of
her
stiff
,
starched
petticoats
.
Thanks
to
her
the
floors
of
tamped
earth
,
the
unwhitewashed
mud
walls
,
the
rustic
,
wooden
furniture
they
had
built
them-selves
were
always
dean
,
and
the
old
chests
where
they
kept
their
clothes
exhaled
the
warm
smell
of
basil
.
Jose
Arcadio
Buendfa
,
who
was
the
most
enterprising
man
ever
to
be
seen
in
the
village
,
had
set
up
the
placement
of
the
houses
in
such
a
way
that
from
all
of
them
one
could
reach
the
river
and
draw
water
with
the
same
effort
,
and
he
had
lined
up
the
streets
with
such
good
sense
that
no
house
got
more
sun
than
another
during
the
hot
time
of
day
.
Within
a
few
years
Macondo
was
a
village
that
was
more
orderly
and
hard
working
than
any
known
until
then
by
its
three
hundred
inhabitants
.
It
was
a
truly
happy
village
where
no
one
was
over
thirty
years
of
age
and
where
no
one
had
died
.
16
Since
the
time
of
its
founding
,
Jose
Arcadio
Buendfa
had
built
traps
and
cages
.
In
a
short
time
he
filled
not
only
his
own
house
but
all
of
those
in
the
village
with
troupials
,
canaries
,
bee
eaters
,
and
redbreasts
.
17
The
concert
of
so
many
different
birds
became
so
disturbing
that
Orsula
would
plug
her
ears
with
beeswax
so
as
not
to
lose
her
sense
of
reality
.
The
first
time
that
Melqufades
'
tribe
arrived
,
selling
glass
balls
for
headaches
,
everyone
was
surprised
that
they
had
been
able
to
find
that
village
lost
in
the
drowsiness
of
the
swamp
,
and
the
gypsies
confessed
that
they
had
found
their
way
by
the
song
of
the
birds
.

That
spirit
of
social
initiative
disappearedin
a
short
time
,
pulled
away
by
the
fever
of
the
magnets
,
the
astronomical
calculations
,
the
dreams
of
transmutation
,
and
the
urge
to
discover
the
wonders
of
the
world
.
From
a
clean
and
active
man
,
Jose
Arcadio
Buendfa
changed
into
a
man
lazy
in
appearance
,
careless
in
his
dress
,
with
a
wild
beard
that
Orsula
managed
to
trim
with
great
effort
and
a
kitchen
knife
.
There
were
many
who
considered
him
the
victim
of
some
strange
spell
.
But
even
those
most
convinced
of
his
madness
left
work
and
family
to
follow
him
when
he
brought
out
his
tools
to
clear
the
land
and
asked
the
assembled
group
to
open
a
way
that
would
put
Macondo
in
contact
with
the
great
inventions
.
19
Jose
Arcadio
Buendfa
was
completely
ignorant
of
the
geography
of
the
region
.
He
knew
that
to
the
east
there
lay
an
impenetrable
mountain
chain
and
that
on
the
other
side
of
the
mountains
there
was
the
ardent
city
of
Riohacha
,
where
in
times
past-according
to
what
he
had
been
told
by
the
first
Aureliano
Buendfa
,
his
grandfather-Sir
Francis
Drake
had
gone
crocodile
hunting
with
cannons
and
that
he
repaired
hem
and
stuffed
them
with
straw
to
bring
to
Queen
Elizabeth
.
In
his
youth
,
Jose
Arcadio
Buendfa
and
his
men
,
with
wives
and
children
,
animals
and
all
kinds
of
domestic
implements
,
had
crossed
the
mountains
in
search
of
an
outlet
to
the
sea
,
and
after
twenty-six
months
they
gave
up
the
expedition
and
founded
Macondo
,
so
they
would
not
have
to
go
back
.
20
It
was
,
therefore
,
a
route
that
did
not
interest
him
,
for
it
could
lead
only
to
the
past
.
To
the
south
lay
the
swamps
,
covered
with
an
eternal
vegetable
scum
and
the
whole
vast
universe
of
the
great
swamp
,
which
,
according
to
what
the
gypsies
said
,
had
no
limits
.
The
great
swamp
in
the
west
mingled
with
a
boundless
extension
of
water
where
there
were
soft-skinned
ceta-ceans
that
had
the
head
and
torso
of
a
woman
,
causing
the
ruination
of
sailors
with
the
charm
of
their
extraordinary
breasts
.
The
gypsies
sailed
along
that
route
for
six
months
before
they
reached
the
strip
of
land
over
which
the
mules
that
carried
the
mail
passed
.
According
to
Jose
ArcadioBuendfa
's
calculations
,
the
only
possibility
of
contact
with
civilization
lay
along
the
northern
route
.
So
he
handed
out
clearing
tools
and
hunting
weapons
to
the
same
men
who
had
been
with
him
during
the
founding
of
Macondo
.
He
threw
his
directional
instruments
and
his
maps
into
a
knapsack
,
and
he
undertook
the
reckless
adventure
.
