L'altra fia che questa materia è la più alta et più profonda che trattar si possa entro i termini della scientia naturale. Et si può dire che fin'hora non sia stata intesa, così diversamente et oscuramente n'han parlato coloro, che s'han proposto d'essaminarla. Hora però è talmente fatta chiara, che cotai secreti non si poteano più manifestamente palesare, così facilmente la distinse in [sic] Genoa, et così fedelmente la raccolse l'autore. Havendo egli dunque gioia sì pretiosa negletta et abbandonata, come quello ch'usa di dire che non intende mendicar laude co'l recitar opinioni altrui, ma solamente co'l far egli stesso cosa de-</text>

              <text>gna di gloria, io mosso a pietà considerando quanto beneficio ne possano prendere i studiosi delle belle lettere, l'ho raccolta et mi son messo a publicarla. Et considerando a cui così degna opera dedicare si convenisse, poiché mi son accorto, che tra tutti i principi d'Italia, non vi si truova chi di valore et di scientia a V.E. vada inanti, et vedendo quanto caramente sieno da lei accolti gli huomini grandi nelle lettere, et di gran fama; m'ha parso di consecrarla all'alto Nome vostro; sperando che l'Altezza vostra vi sia per accrescere et splendore, et ornamento, mio desiderio è far cosa che sia di piacere a V.E. la qual gratia se mi concederà Iddio ch'io possi conseguire, ne sentirò infinito contento. 

&lt;1r-28v&gt; DE SOGNI. &lt;inc&gt; Tra le cose miracolose di Natura, par che i sogni vi si possino annoverare; anzi tanta meraviglia fecero et a gli antichi et a moderni philosophi, che spesse volte han fermamente tenuto loro non esser produtti dalla Natura, ma da Dio, mandati in terra a rivellar a mortali i casi lor dovessero intravenire. Di materia dunque così ammirabile et alta et fia dilettevole il ragionare, poi che le cose maravigliose porgen diletto, et a chi le ritragge, e a chi le ascolta; et util cosa il cercarne la verità. Della quale benché molti diversamente n'habbian parlato, nondimeno per non confonder le sette di coloro che ne principii sono discordi, quel solamente che n'habbia sentito Aristotile, che tanto seppe, ho proposto di dimostrare. &lt;expl&gt; così i sogni del melanconico, che sono molti, sogliono assai volte incontrarsi con l'effetto che ne segui. Et questo humore puote tanto oltre, che fa gli huomini indovini, però che il maninconico sospinto dalla vehementia dell'humore, et guidato da certa simiglianza d'una cosa a l'altra, a guisa di coloro che feriscono di lontano puotè apprender le cose inanti che sien intervenute; ma perché ciò transcende i nostri termini, facciam qui punto al presente ragionamento. </text>
