ertam quandam et determinatam inter ige R.s et verba

causas subeste cur posset, cur cate certae voces certis rebus sint assignatae
ex institutorem fluxisse, non potest dici nisi de linguis quibusdam artifi
cialibus, quatem  Golius Linensem esse suspicatus est, et qualem
algarnus, Wwiltinsius aliique confinxere. et primigeniam qua quidam ortam

tunc cum nomina animalibus imposuisse se traditur. Sed eam
tatem linquam vel non exta vel valle difigure
omnino inter cicisse, vel in ruderibus tantum nonnullis
superesse oportet, ubi artificium deprehendere difficile est.
abent tamen ainquae oiginem quandam naturalem ex sonorum
consensu cum affectibus, quos rerum spectacula in mente excitabant.
et hoc non tantum et hancoriginem non tantum in lingua orig primigenra
locum habuisse putem, sed et in linguis posterius partim ex primigema
partim ex nova hominum vsu per per orbem dispersorum utu enatis.
Et sane saepe onomotopoeia manifeste imitatur naturam ut cum
