Not illustrated. 1868 edition. Excerpt: ...delicta tegit. Compendiose rem gestam stilo commendare libet, ut doceam quandoque bestias majoris esse fidei et amoris certioris quam sit nobilis creatura, cum dignitatis naturalis immemor efficitur. Erat igitur miles et generosus sanguine et in re militari exercitatus et strenuissimus. Solus vero iter emensus, ut consuetudinis erat, audivit leonem in recessu quodam non multum a strata regia pro rugitu edentem gemitum, et doloris acerbitatem lacrimabiliter protestantem. Serpens enim quantitatis horrendse sinuosis caudae vol u minibus collum leonis cinxerat, pectore vero et pedibus arbori proceras firmiter adhaesit, adeo ut leo vinctus staret juxta dictae arboris stipitem.

Quocunque pergebat miles, sequcbatur eum assecla fidelis. Tanta familiaritas, tam affectuosus amor, terae tam superbae de natura, sed jam mansuetissimae,2 singulos rem attendentes non solum in admirationem sed in stuporem adduxit.
