Domino Edvardo Littleton, Sigilli Custodi.

Honoratissime Domine,

QVod fortunas vestras infimi homines eminus gratulamur, peccamus de industria, ut scias communem laetitiam inde perceptam, vel ad Reipublicae talos dscen∣disse, Caput ubi lauro circundatur, trium∣phant & pede. Obtinet idem membrorum foedus, ut quicquid tibi accedit decoris, illud ut nostrum gaudeamus: nec nostrum modo cum caeteris, habemus quod soli & cira ri∣vales gloriemur. Cum enim pro humanitate quâ polles maximâ, Collegium nostrum no ita pridem inviseres (parce dicto cui vestra Comitas fecit sidem) adoptasse tibi Mare videbaris; sed privatam superbiam 〈◊〉〈◊〉 pellat publica, & Gratulatio nostra ad 〈◊〉〈◊〉 Chorum est annectenda.

Macte igitur, Heros ter maxime, triplici omine, ut Militans Ec∣clesia te agnoscat Scutum, nutans Academia Scipionem, Laborans Britannia Statorem Jovem.

Honori vestro quam maximè deditissimi Magister & Socii Coll. D. I.
