[391] munere sic niveo l. s. c. d. mutat fabulam: nam non Pan, sed Endymion amasse dicitur Lunam. qui spretus pavit pe- cora candidissima et sic eam in suos inlexit amplexus: cuius rei mystici volunt quandam secretam esse rationem. si credere dignum est tantum de Luna sacrilegium. et aliter: (fefellit) id est cepit et fefellit. et bene 'si credere dignum est', quia dicturus erat impie in deam. fabula sic est: Pan cum Lunae amore flagraret, ut illi formosus videretur, niveis velleribus se circumdedit atque ita eam ad rem veneriam illexit. huius opinionis auctor est Nicander: nec poterat esse nisi Graecus.
