me liceras el. Abbatis Fardellae humanitatis plenissimas 15
Jan. anni curr. Scriptas Calend. Febr. accepisce, in quibus.
A. Tua de meis studin tertimonium tantae apud Acad. Ref
fuesse autoritatis dicit, ut, simulatque in mei favorem id
depositum fuiss et, ananimi suffragio omnes mathe
matica cathodra medignum judicarint honertisque
conditionibus invitare decreverint, idque etium negotu
et. Fardella datum erat, ut quantum annuum stixen
dium accipere cupiam ex me quaereret. Sed cum petere
quicquam recuisasem, hocqus negorium Dn. Fardella
commisisiem, ut, quid sibi hac in re faitu convenientissimu
videretur, ageret; eodem tamen tenore ac in prioribus
mecum loquitur in altimio sui ad me literis  Martii
utque stipendium petam urget, Lam etsi in sua excitola
dicat, Profesoribus Patavinio recens stationi cuidam
apud eos admotis determinatum aliquod ab initiosi
peadium dari, quod yssi condotla italice vocant, quodque
postea proratione diligentia et publici applausus tingu.
lin sex annis augetur idque ricondolta audit; addidit
Cl. hic Vir 600 florenos venetos adminimum in mima
condotta me accenturum, quod quingentorum fere im-
perialium summam conticere ajunt. Huc usque vocarionus
Italica negotium processit; quicquid autem prosperi hac
in re mihi eveniet, Tuu Ampl. id omne, post Deum, ac-
ceptum referam. Dn. Fardella enim, ut Tibi, Vir Consut.

id praestitisset scivissem, dum Ampl. Tua nocificavit placent tantam curam promovendu meni vocationi adhibet,
quantique duam Excell. faciat exprimere satis non possum
cuique ut cultum suum deferrem me in ultimis suis rogavit,
cui deesse nolui officio.
Novum propensi sui inme animi mihi suppeditat indicium
Ampl. Tua dum in Aula Cass ellana Amicis suis me com
mendaturum promiltit, vacante apud Marburgens et Proses. mut.
quam reliquit Dn. Papinus Principir sui fusu perpeluo Cassel
in Aula mansurus. Amicus qui dam Marburgi Profes: omnes tam
Suor Collegas in suum pertraxit sententium ut, postquam audiverut
a Dua Ampl. me plurimum amari, jam in procinitu ehent suum
Principem rogandi, quo vacanti cathedrae praeficerer, ego, quae com
mendatio non caritura fuisset optaro suuesru; at Patavinum
negorium rem mihi integram non relinquit.
Gaudeo quod Dn. Reynaltus Praibyter Oratori, quem Pariius apud
el. Malebranckium vidi, in algebra sua quam evulgandam parat;
Sua Arithmetica dyadica mentionem sit futurus, hancqus ob rem
tanto avidius eum librum expecto. Aliquot jam retro annis jam

meminirti Te urum esse Ad. Erudit 1700 Menc. Majo, ubi occa
sione quorundam theorematum Mogora anorum ex generali-
aequatione aut potius terie radicem extrahere docuisti; at litenter
fatcor, me non sacir bene bunc percepisse quem in finem novum
illud designationis genus adhiberet, nunc vero ex explicatione quam
Ampl. Jua impertiri mihi voluit, et pro quo gratias ago Rumillimas
usum illum non nihil darius perspicio, credoque clarissimam mihi assul
suram esse lucem ex is qua adhuc circa hoc argumentum se commu-
nicarurum promitlit.
Nondum examinare licuit, qua nam prodi

et portea sumarum tertic vel quarta pars caperetur.
