Ornatissime Praesul.

Cum sim et natura verecundior, quam ut alicui litteris meis ultro soleam negotium facessere, et hucusque tumultibus plusquam panicis iactati sumus, quo minus ulla scribendi occasio contigerit, cum vero singularem Celsitudinis Tuae in me beneficentiam animo complector, eloqui, ut dignum est, vix queam, quantopere istum tuum in me animum ex amicorum litteris agnoscor, venerer atque exosculer. Ac iam pridem circumspicio, quonam pacto tantae munificentiae meam vicissim animi grati propensionem testatam efficiam. Quidquid igitur favoris, quicquid benignitatis, quicquid subsidii Tua Magnitudo in evehendo tuendoque studiorum alumno impendit, id totum in me collatum nunc esse ducam gratiasque, quoad manebit huius animae corpusculique copula, semper habituri sumus quam maximas. Quamquam autem his litterulis sciam me dignas non posse referre gratias, attamen significationem hanc gratae mentis ostendere non indignum fore arbitratus sum et haec utcumque conscripta doctissimis Celsitudinis Tuae auribus committere volui. Neque vero te poeniteat istius animi, non erit ingratus, quin aliquando magis re ipsa quam verbis declarare cupit munusque sibi gratissimum, quod ne exspectanti quidem accidit, fuisse semper commemoret. Equidem optarem mihi dari, si quicquam huiusmodi proficitur votis, vel Nestoream eloquentiam, tantisper dum tanti beneficii memorem gratumque possim exhibere animum, aut qualem AAWO, AB, D. 6, f. 39v dicendi vim veteres poetarum fabulae subnotarunt in Hermes (Mercury), messenger of the gods in Greek and Roman mythologyMercurioHermes (Mercury), messenger of the gods in Greek and Roman mythology, qui ceu magica virga divinaque cythara somnum immittit cum libet et idem adimit, quos vult ad inferos impellens ac rursus ab inferis evocans, aut qualem Ogmius (Ogimios), Celtic deity of wisdom and eloquenceOgmioOgmius (Ogimios), Celtic deity of wisdom and eloquence suo tribuebant The Gauls GalliThe Gauls , qui nimirum ms. omneis reg. omnesomneisms. omneis reg. omnes mortales catenulis a lingua infixis, quo vellet, abduceret, aut qualem certe, ne fabulis immoremur, in Amphion in Greek mythology the son of Zeus and AnthiopeAmphioneAmphion in Greek mythology the son of Zeus and Anthiope Orpheus in Greek mythology a musician, poet, and prophet, who descended to the underworld to rescue his wife EurydiceOrpheoOrpheus in Greek mythology a musician, poet, and prophet, who descended to the underworld to rescue his wife Eurydiceque, quorum alterum rigida movisse saxa, alterum quercus et ornos traxisse cythara, ut vetera poetarum figmenta annotarunt[1].
