id facit exiguum clinamen principiorum<br />

nec regione loci certa nec tempore certo.<br />

Nec stipata magis fuit umquam materiai<br />

copia nec porro maioribus intervallis;<br />

nam neque adaugescit quicquam neque <strong>de</strong>perit in<strong>de</strong>.<br />

qua propter quo nunc in motu principiorum<br />

corpora sunt, in eo<strong>de</strong>m ante acta aetate fuere<br />

et post haec semper simili ratione ferentur,<br />

et quae consuerint gigni gignentur ea<strong>de</strong>m<br />

condicione et erunt et crescent vique valebunt,<br />

quantum cuique datum est per foe<strong>de</strong>ra <strong>natura</strong>i.<br />

nec <strong>rerum</strong> summam commutare ulla potest vis;<br />

nam neque quo possit genus ullum materiai<br />

effugere ex omni quicquam est , neque in omne<br />

un<strong>de</strong> coorta queat nova vis inrumpere et omnem<br />

<strong>natura</strong>m <strong>rerum</strong> mutare et vertere motus.<br />

Illud in his rebus non est mirabile, quare,<br />

omnia cum <strong>rerum</strong> primordia sint in motu,<br />

summa tamen summa vi<strong>de</strong>atur stare quiete,<br />

praeter quam siquid proprio dat corpore motus.<br />

omnis enim longe nostris ab sensibus infra<br />

primorum <strong>natura</strong> iacet; qua propter, ubi ipsa<br />

cernere iam nequeas, motus quoque surpere <strong>de</strong>bent;<br />

praesertim cum, quae possimus cernere, celent<br />

saepe tamen motus spatio diducta locorum.<br />

nam saepe in colli ton<strong>de</strong>ntes pabula laeta<br />

lanigerae reptant pecu<strong>de</strong>s, quo quamque vocantes<br />

invitant herbae gemmantes rore recenti,<br />

et satiati agni ludunt blan<strong>de</strong>que coruscant;<br />

omnia quae nobis longe confusa vi<strong>de</strong>ntur<br />

et velut in viridi candor consistere colli.<br />

praeterea magnae legiones cum loca cursu<br />
