Ac ne minoris quidem famae opifices per tot iam saecula videmus laborem suum destituisse, qui Protogenen Apellenque cum Parrhasio mirati sunt, nec pulchritudine Iovis Olympii Minervaeque Phidiacae sequentis aetatis attonitos piguit experiri Bryaxin, Lysippum, Praxitelen, Polyclitum, quid efficere aut quousque progredi possent. Sed in omni genere scientiae et summis admiratio veneratioque et inferioribus merita laus contigit.

Accedit huc, quod illi, quem nos perfectum esse volumus agricolam, si quidem artis consummatae non sit, nec [*]in universa rerum natura sagacitatem Democriti vel Pythagorae fuerit consecutus, et in motibus astrorum ventorumque Metonis providentiam vel Eudoxi et in pecoris cultu doctrinam Chironis ac [*] [*]

v.1.p.26
Melampodis, et in agrorum solique molitione Triptolemi aut Aristaei prudentiam, multum tamen profecerit si usu Tremelios Sasernasque et Stolones nostros aequaverit.

Potest enim nec subtilissima nec rursus, quod aiunt, pingui Minerva res agrestis administrari. Nam illud procul vero est, quod plerique crediderunt, facillimam esse nec ullius acuminis rusticationem. De cuius universitate nihil attinet plura nunc disserere, quoniam1 quidem cunctae partes eius destinatis aliquot voluminibus explicandae sunt, quas ordine suo tunc demum persequar, cum praefatus fuero quae reor ad universam disciplinam maxime pertinere.

Qui studium agricolationi dederit, antiquissima sciat haec sibi advocanda: prudentiam rei, facultatem impendendi, voluntatem agendi. Nam is demum cultissimum rus habebit, ut ait Tremelius, qui et colere sciet et poterit et volet. Neque enim scire aut velle cuiquam satis fuerit sine sumptibus, quos exigunt opera;

nec rursus faciendi aut impendendi [*]

v.1.p.28
voluntas profuerit sine arte, quia caput est in omni negotio nosse quid agendum sit, maximeque in agri cultura, in qua voluntas facultasque citra scientiam saepe magnam dominis adferunt iacturam, cum imprudenter facta opera frustrantur impensas.
