Realdi Columbi Cremonensis
Excerpt Caudeo mirandum in modum, Pont. Max. me opus illud de re Anatomica, quod abhinc mul tos annos inchoaveram, tandem foelicißimis tuae sanctitatis teporibus absolvisse. Quis enim pius Christianis omnibus non gratuletur? quis sibi ipsi ex animo no gaudeat, se ad haec usque tempora servatum esse, cum in sedem Petri successerit sanctißimus, atque optimus senex, qui tata iam inde a puerovitae sanctitate praeditus sit, tanta optimarum artium omnium cognitione, ut huic Sanctae Sedi merito servatus fuisse videatur: qui tot integerrimorum moru exemplo, doctrina, concionibus, sobrietate, ieiuniis praesentes, absenteseque Christianae religionis amore inflamare possit: qui abusus omnes, omnes haereses profligare, atque rdicitus euellere solus queat. nullus enim unquam post hominum memoriam haereticos, pravosque homines acrius insectatus est. nemo religionem haeresibus labefactatam melius erexit: literarum studia libentius fovit. Quid, quod tu humannos affectus omnes ita domvisti, ut nemini prorsus pepercisse palam ostederis. Cum igitur adeo acriter vitia insecteris, adeo potenter virtutes evehas, bonisque artibus, et disciplinis humano generi perutilibus libes faveaus, illasque paterna charitate foveas, non dici potest quatopere gaudeam me meis, quos de Anatome conscripsi libris, te Pontifice, extremam manum imposvisse, quos humili propropensoque, ut decet, animo tibi hodie nuncupo, tuisque sanctibimis pedibus provolutus, sanctitatem tuam supplex exoro, ut illis, meisque omnibus benedicat, amplexetur, ac eos protegat. Si enim tvae sanctitati licebit unquam per maxima illa qvae sustines totius Reipub. Christianae negotia, meos hosce qualescunque libellos perlegere, eos no inutiles medicinae caeterisque artibus judicabis. Deus faxit, ut te quam divitissime incolumem vide amus: te enim Pontifice Christiana religio vel a remotibimis barbarorum nationibus, atque illius acerrimis hostibus bene audiet ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Windham Press is committed to bringing the lost cultural heritage of ages past into the 21st century through high-quality reproductions of original, classic printed works at affordable prices. This book has been carefully crafted to utilize the original images of antique books rather than error-prone OCR text. This also preserves the work of the original typesetters of these classics, unknown craftsmen who laid out the text, often by hand, of each and every page you will read. Their subtle art involving judgment and interaction with the text is in many ways superior and more human than the mechanical methods utilized today, and gave each book a unique, hand-crafted feel in its text that connected the reader organically to the art of bindery and book-making. We think these benefits are worth the occasional imperfection resulting from the age of these books at the time of scanning, and their vintage feel provides a connection to the past that goes beyond the mere words of the text.
