31IO: ALFONSI BORELLI

PRÆFATIO AD LECTOREM.

ACCIPE tandem, ſtudioſe Lector, in ſolemni hac pompa
nuptiarum Sereniſsimi Principis Etruriæ Regio ſplendore
à Sereniſsimo Magno Duce parata tamdiu deploratos,
& expetitos libros poſtremos Conicorum Apollonĳ Per-
gæi, vtque ſine mora mens tua epulis hiſce lautiſsimis
ſaturari poſsit, non te demorari diutine patiar in limine, recenſendo ſci-
licet nomen Apollonĳ, patriam, ætatem, & opera ab eo conſcripta, ne-
que inſuper doctrinæ conicæ ortum, & progreſſum à primis incunabulis
ad virilem vſque, & vegetam ætatem, ad quàm Apollonius eam
euexit, propter quod facimus magnus Geometra cognominatus eſt; hæc
enim trita iam ſunt, & vulgaria: breuiter tantummodo percurram,

lumen eruditum. Codici inſcripſerat Raimundus, ſiue quis alius: Otto libri
de Conici d'Apollonio del Patriarca. Summa lætitia libellum exoſcu-
latus, licet Arabici idiomatis ſim prorſus ignarus, non potui me conti-
nere, quin ſaltem contrectarem, atque reuoluerem paginas illas; cumque
præter figuras mihi ſatis notas quatuor priorum Apollonĳ librorum vidiſ-
ſem alias conicas figuras, in quibus ab vno puncto in eis collocato edu-
ctæ erant plurimæ rectæ lineæ ad coniſectionem, illico in mentem venere
illa Eutocĳ verba in expoſitione epiſtolæ Apollonĳ ad Eudemum: Quin-
tus, inquit, liber de Minimis, & Maximis magna ex parte agit;
quemadmodum enim in elementis didicimus, ſi ab aliquo pun-
cto in circulum lineæ ducantur, earum quidem, quæ ad conca-
uam ipſius circumferentiam pertinent, maximam eſſe, quæ per
centrum tranſit, earum vero, quæ ad conuexam, minimam eſſe,
quæ inter dictum punctum, & diametrum interijcitur, ita &
