sacratis manibus cupiat sua qualiacunque folia explicare Carpent illum e vestris manibus alii quo∣que, & delibabunt. Si enim vestro olfactui saga∣cissimo non ingratus fuerit; si vestrae gratiae calo∣rem fenserit; non dubito, quin Piis omnibus bo∣num publicae aedificationis odorem captantibus, gratus & jucundus sit futurus.
Hoc mihi solamen est, quòd viri praestantissimi, & Honore & Doctrinâ proecellentes, non tam mu∣neris oblati dignitatem, quam gratum offerentis animum perpendere soleant. Si hunc librum ac∣cipere, & diligenter perlegere dignemini, honesta∣bor & gratia meis laboribus optima referetur. De Materia & Methodo hujus Historiae, modum an sa∣tis servarim, Vos pro vestris acerrimis Judiciis ae∣stimabitis. Illam siquando fortè inspexeritis, & in ea aliquid observabitis, de quo me admonendum putabitis, illud rogo significetis: & quicquid ege∣ritis, meam non modò voluntatem, sed etiam sen∣tentiam cum vestrâ conjungam: hoc etiam Bene∣ficium, & quidem summum accipiam, quo nimirum & melior & doctior evadam. Deus Amplitudi∣nem vestram, in Ecclesiae suae, nostraeque patriae utilitatem, quam diutissimè servet incolumem.
Vestrae Reverentiae Observantissimus. G. G.
