VIRO Nobili & Amico Clarissi∣mo Interpreti Burgersdiciano Do∣ctissimo.
ARtes didicit Graecia primum.
Logicen Primas inter & Artes.
Graecia docuit Literis Clara;
Graiisque dedit, quas vicissent
Primùm Gentes, Ore rotundo,
Pugno funditùs hinc contracto,
Perdere totas.
Logicen Rerum Domini Romae
Bellis Alti coluêre Patres;
Logicen coluit Docta Juventus,
Grandior illâ, quàm de Persis,
Quos ducebat Roma Triumphis,
Atque Augustior.
Hinc Gallos & Britonas visit:
Visit, sed vix cognita Veste
Quâ delituit, Visu horridior,
Nec Romanâ, nec Graecanicâ,
Romanam ex Graecanicâ, licet
Sunt qui dicunt Logices linguam,
Factam ab utrisque.

Sic delituit tot per saec'la,
Sic latuisset saec'la per omnia,
Ignota sibi, nec nota suis;
Vestris donec fulgida Curis,
Vir de Logicis, qui sis maxime
Meritus, vitam vivit nobilem,
Cunctis, & sibi post haec cognita,
Linguâ callent, quam Anglica Regna
Et callebunt Gentes dissitae,
Ex auspiciis Principis optimi
Soli similis sibi WILLELMI PII ET INVICTI.
Salve, Ratio, Particula Aurae
Divinae! Dux Vitae, Ratio,
Salve! Coelo dilapsa breves
Animae vires renovatura!
Per te, nosmet quod novimus est;
Te quòd novimus acceptum damus
(Quotcunque Angli) Burgensdicii
Interpreti; In hoc Burgersdicio
Majori, quòd cùm verba dedit
Sola Ille, Hic Res, Logicénque docet,
Logicen, Ipsa ut voluit disci,
Clarè, brevitèr, Methodo certâ,
Sermone, Pari Rebus, Forti,
Dulci & Acuto.

Hoc Vir Nobilis est tuum, & est Tibi, ut
Totum quod inest Logicae Nostrum est:
Parvum hoc. Totum quod habet Lo∣gice,
Gaudetque Suo, Tuum Opus magnum est;
Generosum Ardens, Arduum, & omni Laude Perennius.
S. W.
