AD REGEM 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, ARGUMENTO sumto ex lib. 3 de Republ.

Cùm Deus humanos artus & non imitandae
Solerti ingenio conderet artis opus:
Temperies varii cuique & mistura metalli
Addita; nec moles omnibus vna fuit.
Imperio dignis argentum incoxit & aurum,
Materia haec animi nobilioris erat.
Vulgo durities aeris, ferrique remista est:
Indicium ignavae mentis & illa fuit.
Haec si vera Sophôn or acula, primigenamque
Temperiem produnt pectora quaeque suam,
Nec ramenta aeris, ferri aut vestigia, in ortu
Quisquam primaevo dixerit ulla tuo:
Multa sed argenti solidi, rutilantis & auri
Pondera, materiae mista subesse tuae
Arguit invictae mentis constantia, puri
Et radians animi Lumen, & Aura tui,
Et quascunque alias nitidi virtutibus auri
Congeneres dotes nobile pectus habet:
Vsque adeo Herois generosi pectora gestas
Alta, tot imperiis digna, quot orbis habet.

JACOBUS GLEGIUS Deidonanus:
