Has vir illustris ad Te curare litteras, hatque pagellus offerre
pertegendas, non una causa suit. Tum Amplistim Feetmanni
singulare profundiors ture seruditionis testimonium te vide-
licet omnium optime, hac de quaectione judicaturum, faturumque
Centorem ut eartum rerum culentistimum, ita et aequissimum
sum lluctria tua scripta, et in comparabilis foetus sodicis
Juris gentium diplomallici, cujut ad lectorem pnemista pnefa-
tio certiorem me reddidit Te haud quaquam cums plebe
Philasophorum Hobhesium judicare brutum, sed se qualis reven
ra ett: aculistimum. Sisto itaque pagellus has illustri tuo
judicio, non ut materia suadet, eas exasciatat quidem
sed ut ab homine juvene et forensibus negotiio occupatistimo
profectat, cui tamen, si bonis avibus otium concedvatur
tntius, et a strepitu fori magis remotum, curae cordique
temper foret, id Audiorum gemis excolere, et juris private
principia, ad veram falidamque poria nature normum rem
vocare; equidem oppido multa sunt, quae satis sejine
Sitiadstacunt, nec ultra, quam papinianus dircit, in
