...and by such examples of most abundant prolixity, you have made me addicted and devoted to You; venerating God, that you may have Fortune, happy in all things, as the eternal domestic of such a visible Etruscan Empire, and that you may see the Medicean glory, illustrated by the most lofty praises with the suffrage of God Himself, flourishing and blossoming more and more daily. This I pray.
At Leiden in the Netherlands, on the 18th of November, 1692.
To Your Most Serene Highness
Your most devoted client
JACOBUS GRONOVIUS.
