Aurum et argentum, principes materiae cultus saecularis, ea sint necesse est, unde sunt, terra scilicet, plane gloriosior, quoniam in maledictorum metallorum feralibus officinis poenali opere deplorata nomen terrae in igni reliquit atque exinde de tormentis in ornamenta, de suppliciis in delicias, de ignominiis in honores metalli refuga mutatur.
