Transcription
« Quæ à marmore igitur dicitur pyla, prima nobis dicetur etiam si obliterata sit, & nouis vrbis munimentis substrata. […] [43] portam, quæ à Marmore dictam diximus, non visemus, quia non extat, sed fundamentis ipsius insidet agger, seu vrbis nouæ munimentum, & insignitur in ultima Tabula. » |
