repristination
Noun

repristination

  1. Restoration to an original state; renewal of purity.
    • That trick is, the artificer melts up wax
      With honey, so to speak; he mingles gold
      With gold's alloy, and, duly tempering both,
      Effects a manageable mass, then works:
      But his work ended, once the thing a ring,
      Oh, there's repristination!
