Excerpt from Zodiacus Vitae, Sive De Hominis Vita: Libri XII Articulosque premens, monibusque infesta chi 025 ragra: Hinc lippi stillant oculi, resolutaque Buccho Membra tremunt, dentesque cadunt: olet halitus Hinc stomachus languens, atque intestata venit mors. Saeva quidem plures leto gula tradit acerbo, 630 Quam gladius. Quid, quod census cito deperit: et mox Mergitur in ventrem fundus, domus, atque su pellex: Et modo qui fuerat dives, fit pauper, egensque. Ut vivas, comede, at non vivas propter edendum. Lam dixi, quae sit mulier: nunc accipe, quis sit 635 llle puer, qui stat iuxta hanc, et vertice nutat, Nec vigilare valet, puer hic est filius eius, Quem Labor ex ipsa. Genuit: Somnusque vocatur. Nutriit hunc Lethe, multoque papavere pavit: Germanus Mortis, sed non aeternus, ut illa. 540 Hic hominum pellit curas, et fesso diurno Membra labore levat, revocatque in corpora vires: Quo sine non potis est quisquam producere vitam. Infert multa tamem damna, et caligine quadam Obducit mentem, morbosque inducit, et ipsum 645 Enervat corpus, quoties sine lege modoque Sumitur, et nimium torpentes occupat artus. Parcus erit, si parca gula est: nam venter inanis Excubat, aut minima contentus nocte quiescit: Et levins dormit, melioraque somnia gignit. 650 Est tamen afilictis magnum solamen et omni Optandum voto interdum praecordia quando Angit amor, vel morbus atrox, vel casus acerbus: 'i'unc melior gemmis, tunc fulvo est gratior auro Ut mors, sic somnus miseros felicibus aequat.
