Afpicies parvas agitari , occurrere parces,

Nunc illis, nunc his disjungi, & abire relidlis.

Proinde queas quafdam latitantes nofcerc vires,
Qure brevibus fpatiis compellant parvula nexus
Corpora inire fuos, & certa in vincula ducant.
Jamque has ut poflis melius deprendere vires,
Mecum , age, rebus inhis , qurefiant plurima, nolcc , ioj
Quam varia omniparens agitet natura, flruatque .
Eli1quoddam falium genus, intradolia cruftas
Quod ducit, circumque cadis latera omnia veftit
Accrefcens , longo Bacchum fi tempore claudant:
Dc vini exoritur natura, glebaque circum
ne
Fit lapidofa velut, quo vinum parjete itagnat.
Ergo fales prunis ficcati , atque aeris auris
Expofiti poit, incipient humefeere primo,
