[sig. A1v] Nicolavs Hv̈bnervs Francophordiensis, ad Adamvm Schröterum.
Cvm tua facundæ perlegi carmina Musæ,
Quæ tibi tam facili dexteritate fluunt.
Hæc animo credas nostro tam grata fuerunt,
A mihi Peligno[e1] ceu data Vate forent.
Commendata meo, tamen hæc tua scripta, fauori,
Quod mea concelebrent nomina, nolo putes.
Sed cum præclaros inter Schrötere Poëtas,
Te meritò uideam posse tenere, locum.
Scilicet hoc propter, firmo te semper amore,
(Id tua nam uirtus cogit) Adame colam.
Teq́ue lubens omni qua possum parte iuuabo,
Ne uidear Musis, non bene uelle, tuis.

Nicolaus Hübner of Frankfurt, to Adam Schröter.
When I read your eloquent poems, the ones that flow from you with such easy skill, believe me, they were as pleasing to my mind as if they were given by the Poet of Peligno himself. However, do not think that I favor your writings, which commend my name, because of my own interest. But seeing you rightfully hold a place among the illustrious poets like Schröter, I will always cherish you with steadfast love. This is compelled by your virtue, Adam. I will gladly assist you in every way I can, so as not to seem unkind to your Muses.
