Strana 14 - ... ait Pedio. Pedius quid? crimina rasis 85 librat in antithetis, doctas posuisse figuras laudatur: 'bellum hoc.' hoc bellum? an, Romule, ceves? men moveat?
Strana 8 - Ten' cirratorum centum dictata fuisse Pro nihilo pendas V Ecce inter pocula quaerunt 30 Romulidae saturi, quid dia poemata narrent. Hic aliquis, cui circum humeros hyacinthina laena est, Rancidulum quiddam balba de nare locutus, Phyllidas, Hypsipylas, vatum et plorabile si quid, Eliquat, et tenero supplantat verba palato.
Strana 14 - Arma virum", nonne hoc spumosum et cortice pingui ut ramale vetus vegrandi subere coctum?' quidnam igitur tenerum et laxa cervice legendum? 'torva Mimalloneis inplerunt cornua bombis, et raptum vitulo caput ablatura superbo Bassaris et lyncem Maenas flexura corymbis euhion ingeminat, reparabilis adsonat echo.
Strana 28 - An quia non fibris ovium Ergennaque jubente Triste jaces lucis evitandumque bidental, Idcirco stolidam praebet tibi vellere barbam Jupiter ? aut quidnam est, qua tu mercede Deorum Emeris auriculas?

Strana 66 - Consentire dies, et ab uno sidere duci. Nostra vel aequali suspendit tempora Libra Parca tenax veri, seu nata fidelibus hora Dividit in Geminos concordia fata duorum, Saturnumque gravem nostro Jove frangimus unaL 50 Nescio quod certe est, quod me tibi temperat, astrum.
Strana xx - Imus praecipites, quam si sibi dicat, et intus Palleat infelix quod proxima nesciat uxor? Saepe oculos, memini, tangebam parvus olivo, Grandia si nollem morituri verba Catonis Discere, non sano multum laudanda magistro, Quae pater adductis sudans audiret amicis. Jure etenim id summum, quid dexter senio ferret Scire, erat in voto ; damnosa canicula quantum Raderet ; angustae collo non fallier oreae ; 50 Neu quis callidior buxum torquere flagello.
Strana 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.
Strana xix - Alas ! the flower was just expanded in full blossom to the morning sun, when the day overcast, and this promised pride of the garden perished by the relentless storm.
