To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Discite I jiistitilam monilti et non | temnere | divos. Righteousness | learn from the | warning and | deity | never de|spise ye. Here the final i and initial e are rubbed together by the slurring of the /, so that only the e is distinctly sounded, but the i is faintly heard, like y in tyet, pronounced as one syl- lable. So in the following : 8 Aiixilia Vergilia^ia ; Tu ne I cede malls, sed 1 contra auldentior | ito* Yield not | thou to ill | fortune, but | more cour|ageou. Sly | breast it. the... a and au are pronounced together, the a being faintly heard. 8. EdhUpsis. — Final ni and the vowel before it are sup- pressed before a vowel beginning the following word. As there is nothing similar in English verse, we cannot form a clear idea how it was done. Fata Til am inveiillent, adelrltque volcatns A 'polio* Fate will | find out a | way, and | Phoebus inlvoked will as|sist you. Probably the m was dropped outright, and then the vowel before m was slurred in combination with the initial vowel following, the same as in synaloipha, EdhUpsis signifies pressing out, from the Greek iK-OXl/Su), to press out.
