Side 56 - Natura fieret laudabile carmen an arte Quaesitum est : ego nee Studium sine divite vena Nee rude quid possit video ingenium ; alterius sic 410 Altera poscit opem res et conjurat amice.
Side 76 - That which is now a horse, even with a thought The rack dislimns, and makes it indistinct As water is in water.
Side 31 - Inceptis gravibus plerumque et magna professis purpureus, late qui splendeat, unus et alter 15 assuitur pannus, cum lucus et ara Dianae et properantis aquae per amoenos ambitus agros, aut flumen Rhenum aut pluvius describitur arcus. sed nunc non erat his locus. et fortasse cupressum scis simulare.

Side 295 - Dicitur Afrani toga convenisse Menandro ; Plautus ad exemplar Siculi properare Epicharmi ; Vincere Caecilius gravitate, Terentius arte. Hos ediscit, et hos arto stipata theatro Spectat Roma potens ; habet hos numeratque poetas Ad nostrum tempus, Livi scriptoris ab aevo.
