"Meditationis est perecratari occulti 



ta ; contemplations est admirari 

 perspicua . . . . Admiratio general qusestionem, qusestio investigationem 

 nyestigatio inventionem."— Hugo de S Victor* 



- — u Cur spirent venti, cur terra dehiscat, 

 Cur mare fcurgescat, pelago cur fcantua amaror, 

 Cur caput ob.scura Phoebus ferrugine condat, 

 Quid toties diros cogat flagrare cometas, 

 Quid pariat nubea, venianl cur fulmina ccelo, 

 Quu raicet ig-ne Iris, Buperoa quis condat orb'es 

 Turn rario mom."
