Heluetiæ laudes

Peroratio cum admo

nitione.

In Laudatiſſmũ Heluetiorũ fœdus

Hoc onus immenſum, volui tamen illa referre. Fœta armis regio, fœcundoq; inclyta partu, Et ſemper creſcens populus, patienſq;ʒ laborum, Formicæ velut æginæ, quas creſcere in auras Keacus aſpexit, releuamen plebis ademptæ, Myrmidonaſqʒ vocat, nec noĩa origine fraudat, Gens nimiũ potum exhorrens, gens dedita ſacris Relligione viret, tota eſt affabilis, alto Amne ſitim leuat,& victu contenta minuto eſt. Fidum iter oſtendit plebs officioſa, per Alpes Tuta via eſt, atq; a laqueis defenſa latroni, Nullæ hic inſidiæ raptorum, nulla tyrannos Arx fouet,& nullam timet hic mercator eremũ. O nimiũ felix patria, o digniſſima laude, Si, quod maiores duro peperere labore, Imperium ſerues, libramq; ſequare bilancem Virginis Aſtrææ, timeat ſua dona Cupido,

Imperium pia ſimplicitas regat,& bona vittus.
