titulus a Graecis auctoribus defunctorum honori dicatus, non ambitiosus, sed religiosus: quem commendo lectori meo, sive is filius est seu pater sive utrumque.
It is a title consecrated by Greek writers to the honour of the departed, and is expressive not of vanity but of devotion. And this poem I commend to my reader, be he son, or father, or both.
