Laborius Flório, who haue so much wrought

To honour hir in bringing Italy

To speake hir language, and to giue hir note

Of all the treasure that rich tongue containes:

In gathering vp this vniuersall store,

And furniture of words for euery arte,

And skill of man: So that there seem's no more

Beyond this search, that knowledge can impart.

Which being a worke that would take vp the powers
