fendit fere putrefactam
densanque abietem ad huc
integram; ea Transverso jacen-
tem cum radicitus suis, conis.
que non nellis ruxta reper-
tis. Nec dubium est vallem
arboribus consitam, cum non-
dum frequentia hominum
eacisa in his oris nemora
essent, illuvie aquarum per
intervalla redeunte, diversi
generis stratis oppletam;
cum et marga illic colles
abundent, et sibrae radicum
ac solia, manifesta spolia
sint astantium syvarum
Nunc locus ita editus est,
ut ingens ex imbritus in.
undatio, quae sese velut ru-
ptis nubibus quadriennio
ante effuderat, magno in de
pressioribus damna dato, ad
putei locum non pertigerit.
Nec memoratu indignum est,
in illo tractu nunc abietes
desiderari, tantum natura
loci mutaoit. Conchae non
ex bivalvium genere sunt
sed turbinatarum: nec du-
bitare sas est, veras esse, vi-
vo olim animali habitatas.
