Sebastiani Wirdig ... Nova medicina spirituum : curiosa scientia et doctrina, unanimiter hucusque neglecta, et a nemine merito exculta, medicis tamen et physicis utilissima ...

To the infamous frauds of malignant Dis The god of the underworld; here implying malicious or deceptive forces.,
These things you discuss in your learned pages,
You who blow away or scatter whatever errors,
Vapors, or clouds exist, with a single Spirit.
Behold! The nature of things conspires for you
With so many votes, whose most august
Senate, I think, applauds your beginnings,
The one which, under the auspices of its King,
Erects a glorious tribunal of wisdom among the English.
Unless I am mistaken, Hygeia The goddess of health. herself now yields to you,
And stands entirely by your laws.
To whom, while you render the Spirits, and these to themselves,
You will hold every Spirit as a tribute,
And these Spirits will join themselves to yours,
So that you may always drink in the whole, the vivid,
The agile, the perennial, and, not remiss in strength,
May you be able to breathe forth among so many Spirits.

Daniel Georgius Morhofius
