pero, nuperas meas Arnstadii Scriptas ad manus Vas rite
pervenisse. Dehinc ad lares proprios reversus inter alia reperi
epistolam Mapliabechii, qua HCI et mi hi gratias agit
pro dono elephantino, sed nullum interponens indicium a me
rogatus est, ue suum aliorumque posthac aperiat. (aterum in
opinione mea nire confirmatus sum, viso Lipsia in Gazophyla
cio Lorentiano genuino Ecephanti capite, quatuor tan
tum dentibus molaribus, ut nostrum, instruco. Praterea Vratisla
vienses amici curiosissime scrutati sunt conchas nunimas in
arena passim repertas, variasque obsernationes mecum comunica
runt, qua omnes eo tendunt, ut omnes illae conchae non marina
sed fluviatiles sint. Novum inde fundamentum mea acquirit
sententi anon marinum animal, sed elephantem Tonnae repertum
qui ondis diluvi, aqua nemve fluniatili marinagne mixtis, eo
ad vectus fuerit. Nescio, an scripserim, nomum me ipsia apud
Menzerium reperisse librum mihi oppositum, vel dissertrtionem
potius, Enstachri de S. Vbaldo. Angustiniani Itali, qua opis
nionem meam de Hymno: Se Deum laudumus, impu gnavit.
