page 178 note * “Enumerandae sunt mensurae quibus mathematici, maxime geometrae, utuntur. Mathematica enim, ne confusio oriretur ob diversitatem mensuraram in varus regionibus (quaelibet namque regio proprias habet propemodum mensuras), utiliter excogitarunt quasdem mensuras, quae certae ac ratae apud omnes nationes haberentur.”—Comm. in Sacrdboscum.
