Side 46 - Summosque pedes attinge, manusque : " Non frigent." Visa est si forte pecunia; sive Candida vicini subrisit molle puella ; 110 Cor tibi rite salit ? positum est algente catino Durum olus; et populi cribro decussa farina : Tentemus fauces.
Side 14 - et qui caeruleum dirimebat Nerea delphin; ,,sic costam longo subduximus Apennino. 95 ,,Arma virum, nonne hoc spumosum et cortice pingui, „ut ramale vetus, praegrandi subere coctum?" Quidnam igitur tenerum , et laxa cervice legendum? Torva Mimalloneis implerunt cornua bombis, et raptum vitulo caput ablatura superbo Bassaris, et lyncem Maenas flexura corymbis 100 Euion ingeminat: reparabilis assonat Echo.

Side 72 - Sambucam citius caloni aptaveris alto. Stat contra ratio et secretam gannit in aurem, Ne liceat facere id, quod quis vitiabit agendo.
Side 48 - Cor tibi rite salit? Positum est algente catino Durum olus, et populi cribro decussa farina : Tentemus fauces ; tenero latet ulcus in ore Putre, quod haud deceat plebeia radere beta.
Side 10 - Quisquis es, O, modo quem ex adverso dicere feci, Non ego cum scribo, si forte quid aptius exit, 45 Quando haec rara avis est, si quid tamen aptius exit, Laudari metuam, neque enim mihi cornea fibra est ; Sed recti finemque extremumque esse recuso EUGE tuum et BELLE.
Side 78 - Indulge Genio, carpamus dulcia, nostrum est Quod vivis : cinis et Manes et fabula fies ; [Vive memor leti, fugit hora, hoc quod loquor inde est.] " En quid agis ? duplici in diversum scinderis hamo, Hunccine an hunc sequeris.
