Et suspicor hodie non facile in nostra
terra quam nos adimus nova metalla generari,
sed orta esse pleraque omnia eo tempore, quo nostri

Et magis magisque confirmor comparindo oper

celeberrimi Vallismerii narratione exhibes.

Tecum sentio p. 40. cum in aquis cupro ditatis
ferrum in cuprum mutari creditur (uti apud Nensolenses
