Handbook of Restored Physics and the Secret Work of Hermetic Philosophy

...waste the labors of more gifted minds ingeniorum: refers to the natural talent or intellectual capacity of individuals. In vain will they referring back to Envy and Ignorance hurl their terrors terriculamenta: items or threats intended to cause fear; "scarecrows" or bugbears against me; I shall hold their efforts in contempt, so long as the divine power of Truth veritatis: the Latin concept of 'Veritas,' often personified as a goddess of truth and sincerity remains in my sight, under whose protection I shall walk safely.

These offerings libamina: originally liquid offerings poured to a deity, here meaning the first-fruits or initial products of his intellectual labor of my leisure, accept with the same spirit in which they are offered to you; if these should please you little, or if you hold other things to be more important, graze upon this humble gift munuſculum: a diminutive form of 'gift,' used here as a gesture of modesty of ours with a light bite, as if caressing it. It will be not unwelcome for this very reason: that it has provoked you toward better things.
