Transcription
« Aquæductus celeberrimi, ac mirâ structurâ, ac soliditate constructi, aquæ limpidissimæ. Hos canales cùm nonnulli lustrare voluissent, præ frigiditate lumina extinguebantur ; nec ibi morari concedebatur : Nonnulli adeò sunt ampli, vt cernuus homo ipsos permeare possit, per medias testas exustum porphyrum, marmor, & cætera sunt huiusmodi. » |
