I hereby dutifully offer this work and this second part of the Theatrum Machinarum to your High and Learned Lordships, with the most diligent request that you allow this publication publication—which has happened first and foremost for the benefit of the common good, and then for me to satisfy the will of my good friend, the autoris author—to be pleasing to you, and that you take this opusculum small work under your protection and be my gracious masters, in which I may further demonstrate pleasant services to you within my limited means, to which I am always willing, prepared, and diligent.
