Summary
HENRICO Regi uitium nocebat
hoc, uti partis redimiculorum
manderet. tandem uorat illa quae se
complicant nodis stomacho malignis.
xhaud mora: illustres medici uocantur
qui rata mercede, Sed huius, aiunt,
nulla fit morbi medicina: morti
Henricus iam iam dabitur. parentes
ad torum stabant subitae dolore
sortis afflicti
et felis, ut rem depinxit hic uir, cuius in ea parte uoltus quam super stragulum eleuatam uideas aspectus eius est qui quid fiat non omnino intellegat sed ualde condolescat.
non uni Quinctio nostro haec ars famae fuit – nonne innotuit Ernestus ille pastor, et Iohannes depictor Aliciae (quae Quid sine tabulis, inquit, ualet liber?), et, si cui libellus occurrit Anicula uecta rotis inscriptus, Ericaeus ille Passerinus? – sed huic primo cognomen Liberorum Laureatus datus est. primas tabulas adulescentulus edidit, hortante ea quae Latinam docebat; iam libros CCL amplius ornauit et suos et alienos, quorum notissimus Roaldus ille Hyperboreus: is olim, uiso quod hic pinxerat, uerba in aptiora mutauit. num quem fugit immanis ille sed comis gigas? nuper rogatus hic uir sene ipso in delineando esset usus, risu negauit (nam non quem imitetur ante oculos uelle: magis referre ut id exprimat quod mentis acie percipiatur); sed risu haud dissimili senes saepe facit ut ridere uideantur.
