What Newton really learnt during his self-isolation from the plague

See Newton's original workings on the Cambridge Digital Library: cudl.lib.cam.ac.uk/collection...
There's been much talk about how 'Newton discovered gravity' during his self-isolation during the Great Plagues of the 1660s. But what did he really achieve during his time in lockdown? We hear from the man himself.

@Gold Stacking the fact that we today mock and dismiss alchemy is only thanks to the effort of those scientists who worked on it enough to lead us to our present understanding. That's the nature of Science. Not everything that is studied turns positive results. Many, many things are disproved.
Yet, disproving them is equally important as proving another thing. Consider the many inventions and discovered scientists chanced upon, while working on something else.
Today, we know we can dismiss alchemy as as a pseudoscience only because of two things: the scientists who showed us how the atomic world behaves, and the scientists who tried everything they could possibly try and showed us that alchemy, indeed, does not yield any desired result.
I think we should appreciate that.
