AVTHOR IPSE AD librum suum.

IN SITA naturae nostrae sitis illa iuuandi Ignauum vitae desidis odit iter. Parca cibi, saturata fame, deuota labori, Prodiga nocturni luminis vrget opus. Quod, simul ac lucis patiens fore viderit, edit, Inde licet multo plena timore gemat. Poenitet emissam per mille pericula prolem, Quae poterat patriae tuta latere domi. Iudicium{que} timens alieni pallida iuris Omine spem laedit deteriore suam. Sed sine sole nequit viui, prodire necesse est, Cura{que} quod peperit publica, iura vocant. Fortunae credenda salus, quam prouida virtus, Quam patris aeterni dextera magna regit. Sic sua Neptuno committit vela furenti Spem solam in medijs docta phaselus aquis.

Nam{que} rei nouitas nulli tentata priorum Hac ipsa, qua tu progrediere, via, Vtri{que} errores multos, lapsus{que} minatur, Quos cum resciero, num superesse sinam? Cui tam chara mei lectoris amica voluntas, Vt deleta illi displicitura velim.
