Cosconi, qui longa putas epigrammata nostra,
utilis unguendis axibus esse potes.
Hac tu credideris longum ratione colosson
et puerum Bruti dixeris esse breuem.
Disce quod ignoras: Marsi doctique Pedonis
saepe duplex unum pagina tractat opus.
Non sunt longa quibus nihil est quod demere possis,
sed tu, Cosconi, disticha longa facis.
