auscultes, summo somnia missa polo,?Non operam perdes, non h?c audisse pigebit,
tam varijs mirum rebus abundat opus.?Si grauis & tetricus contemnis erotica, rerum
nosce precor seriem tam bene dispositam.?Abnuis? ac saltem stylus & noua lingua novusq;
sermo grauis, sophia, se rogat aspicias.?Id quoq; sirenuis, geometrica cerne vetusta
plurima milliacis disce referta notis.?Hic sunt Pyramides, therm?, ingentesq; Colossi,

symmetria, & quicquid tecta superba facit.?Hic regum cernes exculta palatia, cultus
Nympharum, fontes, egregiasque epulas.?Hinc bicolor chorea est latronum, expressaque tota
in Laberintheis vita hominum tenebris.?Hinc lege de triplici qu? maiestate tonantis
