Septem libri antiquissimarum inscriptionum.
Hic liber sive libri sunt compositio et copulatio omnium antiquarum inscriptionum
in praecipuis mundi partibus, praecipue in Europae, Asiae et Aegypti variis locis et
urbibus, quarum numero quingente et quatuordecim sunt, cum suis ornamentis cir-
cumcirca, sicuti in ipsis marmoreis lapidibus et tabulis extant. Sunt quoque de litera
ad literam decopiatae, quantum fieri potuit; multaeque inter has sunt graecae. Et sunt
earum numero quiquies mille septingentae et octodecim, quae etiam in dictionario
locis convenientibus annotatae et ascriptae sunt. Iam expositurus et indicaturus sum
quod earum in quolibet tomo vel libro inveniantur, secundum ordinem positae sicuti
in marmoribus ipsis visuntur, una quidem linea maior, altera quantum commodissi-
mae fieri potuit.
Prima ergo pars in se habet inscriptiones 563
Secunda pars habet 826
Tertia 307
Quarta 1480
Quinta 456
Sexta 2086
Summa omnium facit 5718
Septima pars, sive ultimus tomus, complectitur in se omnes urbis Romae inscriptiones
de variis antiquitatibus, statuis, sepulchris et tabulis historicis, et aliis rebus descriptas.
In his etiam sunt inscriptiones quae tamen in prioribus sex partibus non nominatae
sunt.

Alius liber de omnis generis etnicis et antiquis numismatibus aureis, argenteis et aere-
is, quae passim in universo mundo inveniuntur, et ego magnis impensis et cura acqui-
sivi, quae latine in xi voluminibus descripta sunt. Et hac numismata partim ipsemet et
apud me habeo, sicuti fabrefacta et excusa sunt; partim ipsemet manu mea delineavi
ex ipsis numismatibus veris passim estantibus apud antiquitatum studiosos et viros
primarios. Suntque eorum quae descripta sunt novies mille; et inter haec multa pereg-
rina, utpote latina, graeca, hetrusca, arabica et aphricana variis characteribus et literis
insignita, prius apud nos non visa et conspecta.

Liber latino idiomate summa cum diligentia de novo et integro compositus et con-
