per Mathesin vel Mechanicam, et experimenta per Muroscopia
et Chymiam adjuvantur, spes est Physicam paulatim crescere
et tandem crepundiis relictis ad adolescentiam proficere poste.
Auctaque hodie non parum per observationes Anatomia, Physio
logia, et Pharmacentica; spes est Pathologiam quoque (quae for
tarse maxime hactenus neglecta fait) insignes progrenus
facturam, si major in observando diligentia adhibeatur, et
baratores Reipublucae Medicorum pradentium ac bene animato,

pyriis similes; quales nobis multas exhibet Chymia.
3) Cum Animadversio in diversis audis, alcalibus, oleis multa
