De illius peccatis plura dicet, cùm dabit
Alias novas, nisi finem maledictis facit.
Adeste aequ•• animo: date potestatem mihi,
Statariam agere ut liceat per silentium;
Ne semper servus currens, iratus senex,
Edax parasitus, sycophanta autem impudens,
Avarus leno, assiduè agendl sint seni
Clamore summo, cum labore maxumo.
Meâ causâ causam hanc justam esse animum inducite,
Ut aliqua pars laboris minuatur mihi:
Nam nunc novas qui scribunt, nil parcunt seni:
Si qua laboriosa est, ad me curritur:
Sin levis est, ad alium mox defertur gregem.
In hac est pura oratio; experimini,
In utramque partem ingenium quid possit meum.
Si nunqnam avarè pretium statur arti meae,
Et cum esse quaestum in animum induxi maxumum,
Quàm maxumè servire vestris commodis,
Exemplum statuite in me, ut adolescentuli
Vobis placere studeant potiùs quàm sibi.
