Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Sexti Pompeii Festi De Verborum Significatione, Vol. 1: Libri XX
SI mihi cum alio principe nunc res esset, eique Festi Poma pei libros ofierrem, mihi fortaèse verendum foret, ne ille, ditissimos antiquitatis Romana thesauros ignorans, veluì inutile manus aspemaretur. Tibi vero eos hodie couse cro, delphine serenissime, qui non solum pleno gradu in literarum studiis processisti, sed intima quoque disci plinarum penetralia reserasti, et sic etiam incredibili sem per nova discendi cupiditate teneris. Quam tuto augu rari posse videor, fare ut volens propitiusque Festum Pom peium accipias, qui si non omnem sitim tuam explere, eam certe lenire, possit, et liquidissimo salientium aqua rum ?umine temperate. Vera dico, delphine sere nissime, inter praestantissimos scriptores, qui res Roma nas literis mandarunt, nullus est qui te plura bona doceat, immo et ipse solus est qui te multa doceat, cum aliis scriptoribus intacta, tum et superioribus nostris saeculis inaudita.
