In nobilissimi, & magni Astrologi Encomium.
INtima sanguinei scrutatur pectora TauriAgmine plebeo cinctus spect ante sacerdos,Imperium{que} suum est quoties argenteus altiSolis avis tendit Romana insignia bello.Augur cede viro, cede ô Geometria magnoAstrologo, claroque Jovi summeque peritoAd sua multiplices deducere sydera morbos.Non Aesculapius talem cognoverit artem,Nedum Virgilius magnus, non Thessala TempeTalem frugifera conspexit vertice doctum.Ex tripode haud quaquam sacro Grynaeus ApolloVerius ad sortem humanam dedit ore loquelas.Astra regunt morbos, morbi sacrantur avitisPlanetis, veluti summis piacula sanctis.Aurea mundanis celebratur regula velis.Quis super atra silex jamjam casura cadentiqueImminet assimilis, veniunt hic Circis ad antrum,Contenti rediere omnes.
H. Pratt. Generosus.
