sed istud aptius paraverit Leo Leonis aut secutus orbitas cantu in Latino, cum prior sit Attico Consentiorum qui superstes est patri, fide, voce, metris ad fluenta Pegasi cecinisse dictus omniforme canticum, quotiensque verba Graia carminaverit, tenuisse celsa iunctus astra Pindaro montemque victor isse per biverticem nullis secundus inter antra Delphica.
Indeed, the poem you ask for would more fitly be composed by Leo, or by that other poet who has followed Leos tracks in Latin song, but is his superior in Greek, Consentius, who perpetuates his fathers glory; of him, it is said that he has sung by the waters of Pegasus, with harmony of lyre and voice and metre, an ode that ranged through every form, and that, whenever he made Greek words into song, he held the starry heights in Pindars company and passed victorious over the twin-peaked mountain amid the caves of Delphi, second to none.
