Bronze fue una yegua de carreras pura sangre británica y yegua de cría que ganó las clásicas Oaks Stakes en el hipódromo de Epsom Downs en 1806. La victoria clásica de Bronze la dejó invicta en tres salidas, pero su posterior carrera de carreras fue poco destacada: en dieciocho carreras más registró solo tres victorias, dos de las cuales fueron en pistas relativamente menores. Después de ser retirada a la cría en 1809 demostró ser una yegua de cría altamente exitosa e influyente, cuyos descendientes directos han ganado muchas carreras importantes hasta el día de hoy.

“Few would defend a small view of Alchemy as "Mother of Chemistry", and confuse its true goal with those external metal arts.

“Although no great stress can be laid on numbers so obtained, they serve to indicate that Davy had not yet obtained the pure metal.”
“The salt of the was merely a means of union between the mercury and the sulphur, just as the vital spirit in man unites soul and body. It was doubtless devised to impart a triple form to the idea, in conformity with the method of the theological schoolmen.”
