cumatate nostra, incredibili veteruomnium
laudandaru artium Studio, ac sinculari pro-
pe cupiditate pacrarint, in hoc tamen ono
quod interdum mihi mirabile accidit, praeter
hodum obtorpuisse, atque à semet nescio quo-
modo decenerasse videntur, quod antiquum
talia Statum, remque ipsam post Romanum
euerjum Imperium publicam prorsus adhuc in tenebris consenescere.
at que ip sa vetustales con oosolescere permiserunt. neque ea
aut cuin(modi fuerint, indacare, aut comperta in lucem ad postero-
rum notitiam prodere studuerunt. L Toc autem maioreme afficit ad-
miratione, quod icasus post Romanas delet as opes in Ialia inci-
derunt, qui non solum magnitudine sua possent doctorum omnium
industriam, ac studia excitare, verum etiam varietate ipsa impe-
ritorum animos facile retinere, eo sque iucunda quadam frucifera
lectionis voluptate replere. Ptenim si superiorum memoriamtem
porum cocitatione complecti, ac memoria repetere voluerimus, pro-
fectoinueniemus, nec memorabiliores onquam motus interris exti
tisse, quam cum barbara nationes efferata libidine noua recionis e-
lata ftorentem sese in Fraliam intulerunt: neque insieniores Italicis
rebus calamitates ello tempore conticisse, quam cum immani ea-
rundem irruptione non pulcherrimi solum aeri, nobilissimaque oppi-
dacius direptapassim, vastata, at que incensa, sedinteera quoque.
