IStum tuum 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 tractatum non oscitanter percurri. De o siquaeras quid sentiam Eum & doctrina & facetijs refertum esse existim. Nec arbitror in eo quidquam contineri, quod possit bonorum aures offendere. Si quis sit quìsecus à me sentiet, ego illum habebo aut pro impostore, aut pro impostorum fautore. Quamobrem sim ego tibi Au∣or eum publicandi. Nam hinc, & inibis apud om∣nes bonos gratiam, & perennem nominis famam tibi∣met comparabis. Neque est quod vereare, ne forte ex ejus evulgatione labes medicinae aspergatur. Hone∣stae ejus praxi nullum hinc potert detrimentum ac∣cedere; non magis quàm civitati illi dedecus in qua mercirices aut vapulant, aut exulant. Ex musaeolo meo ipsis Idibus Martijs anniab exhibito in carne Messia supra millesimum sexcentesimum tricesimi sexti.

Tui si quis alius Studiosus, Alexander Read, M. D. atque ex numero soctorum Collegij Medici Londinensis.
