tu vedes mihi se voles et in loci que voles, ego sum diversus-
scribo versum, 
entro spaci Mnemosiae,-
rosae
sunt in verbi, dolori et desideri,
et verae
sunt gratitudinae
da cordi a medici Hospitali Sanctae Mariae,-
sapenti viae
Misericordiae et Vitae,

Gratiae multi mundi
et multae stellae,
pulcher est laboris pro genti
en Urbi de Venti.
