Ce leberrimeet omnigena doctrina
exeellentissime, Fautor Honoratissime
Humanissimis literis Tuis, et adjuncto muneri
dudum et responsum et gratias debeo, vellem simul
ras possem referre
Praeclarum instibutum
lium docendi nobilem et in spem patria natam ju-
venbutem, quae vel prosint aliquando pebus gerendis, ver certe
a facti
judicium ita acuant, ut adultiores sententias foveant
de Rrepublica non absurdas
spectatoresque eorum quae aguntur
non stupidos praestent, ego magnopere laudandum
Adjecissi literis usum rerum dum in maximo
Europae theatio Gr curiosus non ea tantum cognovisti
quae in publicum producebantur, sed et quae velo ut
in scena tenebantur
Macte igitur hac lande
quae cibi non est communis com multis, opesque collectas
iterum in communem utilitatem effunde; atque id ageod
ut non ad suditore, tantum Tuos, sed et ad omnes perve
niat tructus. Programma certe quo consilium exponis
non poterit non placere iis, qui et maturitatem simul et
modestiam in judicando animadvertent
