Nympha sacri regina lacus, cui grata Sabinus
et mansura pio munere templa dedit,
sic montana tuos semper colat Umbria fontes
nec tua Baianas Sassina malit aquas:
excipe sollicitos placide, mea dona, libellos;
tu fueris Musis Pegasis unda meis. -
'Nympharum templis quisquis sua carmina donat,
quid fieri libris debeat ipse monet.'
