Muta Palatini quod Bibliotheca recessit,
Illa fere innumeris clara Voluminibus,
Illaque Niliacae poterat quae vincere palmas,
Et Vaticanae obsistere luminibus;
Quodque Heidelberga Romam captiva migravit;
Jactura haec equidem vix reparabilis est,
Mutam at vocalis quod Bibliotheca secuta est,
Illa tot aureolis foeta Voluminibus.
Quae poterat Romae praecepta, & condere Atheni••,
Flexanimoque artes quaslibet ore loqui;
Nempe quod è terris magnus Gruterus abivit;
Jactura omnino haec irreparabilis est.
