To the Reverend Father, Doctor Michael Wagner, Professor of Sacred Literature at the University of Ingolstadt, Canon of Freising, and my esteemed master, Greetings. | |||
It is customary for those who are honored with the highest distinction in philosophy to offer some poems to their teachers, in order to express their gratitude and benefit themselves. Therefore, as I am honored alongside others, and feel the same affection towards my teachers, I wish to follow this tradition. If I fail to do so without a valid reason, I may be deemed ungrateful. However, I believe that the promoters will understand my reasons and not judge me too harshly. | |||
As in every art, the study of poetry requires both the guidance and practice of a skilled teacher, as well as a natural talent that is suitable for this art. Therefore, since I have not practiced writing poems extensively, I have always focused on studying philosophy, which I believe is my natural inclination. Therefore, instead of writing a poem, I decided to deliver a speech on the subject of philosophical studies. My aim is to inspire young minds and encourage them to pursue the noble teachings of philosophy, while avoiding the pitfalls of idle luxury. | As in every art, the study of poetry requires both the guidance and practice of a skilled teacher, as well as a natural talent that is suitable for this art.

Since those who are conferred the highest honor in Philosophy here are accustomed to offering some poems to their teachers, through which they express their gratitude and profess it, it is required of me, as I have been affected by the same honor as the others, to do the same. Indeed, if I do not comply or provide a certain and sufficient reason for my omission, I may be considered ungrateful. However, I believe that my promoters will not be displeased if I do not do this, given the reason. It is required that, in every art, and especially in the pursuit of poetry, a person comes to understand the art not only through their teacher's instruction and practice but also through the guidance of nature, which is suited for learning this art. Therefore, since I have not practiced writing poems very much, but rather have always considered this effort to be best spent on the study of Philosophy, to which I believe I am naturally more inclined, I have chosen to compose a speech on the study of Philosophy and thereby uplift the languishing spirits of the youth so that they may shun idle luxury and follow the most excellent precepts of Philosophy. If only I could encompass these ideas in a brief speech and present them in the same way that I hold them in my mind. For those things that are expressed or even written for the sake of the youth, either in speech or in writing, do not allow for a detailed method of instruction. Since the minds of the young themselves still need nourishment and can be led more by persuasion than by demonstration. | |||
Therefore, I kindly ask you to accept this speech, venerable Father, as a sort of pledge from me, by which I am bound to you; this has been completed by me within twelve or thirteen hours, without the aid of any books. I did not want this speech to be published and printed so that something originating from me might come into the hands of people and gain me a name (for I am not ignorant of the fact that this writing is too insignificant for anything of this kind to be achieved through it), but so that I could more quickly share it with certain friends who asked for it. However, I did not want to let it go out without a patron, but rather dedicate and consecrate it to someone who has been very good to me. Among these people, venerable Father, you hold not the last place, but you come to my mind immediately among the first and foremost; therefore, I wanted to dedicate this to you. So please accept it again, and I ask you repeatedly. For what will be more diligently completed by me in the future will also be consecrated to you. Farewell, given at Ingolstadt on the 14th day before the Kalends of February in the year 1561. | |||

To the Reverend Father, Doctor Michael Wagner, Professor of Sacred Literature at the University of Ingolstadt, Canon of Freising, and my esteemed master, Greetings.
