XML: Passage Full Text

scribimus et scriptos absumimus igne libellos:

exitus est studii parva favilla mei.

nec possum et cupio non nullos ducere versus :

ponitur idcirco noster in igne labor,

nec nisi pars casu flammis erepta dolove

ad vos ingenii pervenit ulla mei.

sic utinam, quae nil metuentem tale magistrum

perdidit, in cineres Ars mea versa foret!
