IN EMBLEMATA AMATORIA
Othonis VænI.
Hugonis Grotij Epigramma.

Qvestus Amor nōdum sua respondere triumphis
Præmia, nec famæ quod satis acta sequi,
Mille per artificum spatiatus millia, legit
Ottonis doctas æs animare manus.
Ipse regit ferrum, vultus ipse imprimit æri ,
Et gaudet duris durior ipse puer.
At lætus monumenta Dei victricia mundus
Accipit, & plaudit cladibus ecce suis.

Ecce Cupidineas omnis jam dextra tabellas,
Et Paphios lusus jam sinus omnis habet.
Præda puellarum juvenes, juvenúmque puellæ,
Cernite quid valeant tela potentis heri.
At vos ite procul, tanto quibus ista videre
Spes erat, & pictus lædere novit Amor.
