And thus I humbly take my leaue, vntill that I may present your Honour, with a matter more fitting the same.
Candide _Poliphilum_ narrantem somnia Lector auscultes, summo somnia missa polo, Non operam perdes, non hæc audisse pigebit, tam varijs mirum rebus abundat opus. Si grauis & tetricus contemnis erotica, rerum nosce precor seriem tam bene dispositam. Abnuis? ac saltem stylus & noua lingua novusq; sermo grauis, sophia, se rogat aspicias. Id quoq; sirenuis, geometrica cerne vetusta plurima milliacis disce referta notis. Hic sunt Pyramides, thermæ, ingentesq; Colossi, ac Obeliscorum forma vetusta patet. Hic diuersa basis fulget, variæque columnæ illarumq; arcus, Zophora, epistilia, Et capita atq; trabes, et cum quadrante coronæ symmetria, & quicquid tecta superba facit. Hic regum cernes exculta palatia, cultus Nympharum, fontes, egregiasque epulas. Hinc bicolor chorea est latronum, expressaque tota in Laberintheis vita hominum tenebris. Hinc lege de triplici quæ maiestate tonantis dicat, & in portis egerit ipse tribus._ Polia _qua fuerit forma, quam culta, tryumphos inde Iouis specta quatuor æthereos. Hæc præter varios affectus narrat amoris, atque opera & quantum sæuiat ille Deus._
