Hic, qui libellis praegrauem gerit laeuam,
notariorum quem premit chorus leuis,
qui codicillis hinc et inde prolatis
epistolisque commodat grauem uoltum
similis Catoni Tullioque Brutoque,
exprimere, Rufe, fidiculae licet cogant,
haue Latinum, chaire non potest Graecum.
Si fingere istud me putas, salutemus.
