Colores in tenebris videre
poretento
sine objecto colorato
Hoc ita docuit Joseptius Bonacursis
apud Molanum in dissi mathema
tica Miscelli rintelius edita 1669
In Camera obscura omnes rimae probe
obturentur una chartacea fenestra
excepta soli obversa ab eoque fortiter
illustrata: quodsi unaginem in clarta
illa depictam fixis oculis aliquan
tisper fueris intuitus, hanc quoque
fenestiam claude, aliamque chartam
caudidam oculis tuis oppone, in
qua initio non sine stupore vrdebis
auroram quandam consurgentem,
mox orbem iridis aemulum demque
senestram inversam et in hap
fenestos figuras paulo aute
in chartacea ferestra conspicuras
lovec consumtis in oculo spirilibus
sensim omnia evanescaut
videtur lumen objectorum
perinde imbibi ab oculi nostri
fundo, ut a phosphoro bononieusi
lucist
qui radis solaribus expositus et
in locum obscurum delatus conceptam
lucem diu velut vivqus, quidam
carbo diffundit; ut similiter
in oculo nostrus mirum deindes non
sit At Molanus putat pupillam
in lonebrisdilatari, et imaginem
per eam in chartam oppositam
radiare. Citat Schotti Magiam
b. 1. lib. 2. Egu putos imaginem illam
esse nnon in Thareu, sed in oculos
nec ab alio ostante posse
videri
