Dialogvs festivvs, in qvo medicaster quidam à Philosopho de mala medendi ratione, coram Prætore postulatur, multiplicibusq́ue erroribus conuincitur. Licet Medicaster sese pro uiribus purget, obiectaq́ue utcunque refellat, nihilominus ipse per Prætorem ex suffragijs omnium tribuum reus mortis pornunciatur: quem si legeris non poteris non fauere auctori, qui pestem tam sæuam tamq́ue perniciosam è medio sustulert.

A festive dialogue in which a certain quack is accused by a philosopher of using bad medical practices, in the presence of a magistrate, and is convicted of numerous errors. Although the quack defends himself to the best of his ability and refutes some of the accusations, nevertheless he is pronounced guilty of death by the magistrate, with the votes of all the tribes. If you read this, you cannot help but support the author who has removed such a cruel and pernicious plague from our midst.
