Excerpt from De Anonymi Peri Hypsous Sublimi Genere Dicendi
Iain negari quidem non potest qui sublimes de sublimi tate sententias proferat eundem sublimi oratione eas expri mere necesse non esse; tamen, antequam probatum sit rem aliter se habere, non est quod de talis auctoris artificioso genere dicendi dubitemus, immo in eam sententiam facile in ducimur ut putemus auctorem talis libelli ipsum sublimes sententias verbis sublimibus cxpressisse atque ipso libello exemplum sublimitatis prodidisse. Quae cum ita sint, non alienum videtur quaerere num ignotus ille scriptor libelli qui est de sublimitate praecepta quae de sublimi genere dicendi dedit ipso libro secutus sit.
