Figliolo, commetti a Dio sempre la tua causa, & Lui disporrà bene al suo tempo.

Commenda Domino vias tuas, & spera in eum, Ipse benefaciet. *

Hisce Generoso atque doctissimo Domino Possessori, sui memoriam cum voto omnigenae Prosperitatis, commendare voluit

Joannes Georgius Gullmannus

Kempis, Following of Christ, 3.39 [5.33.]

My son, recommend your things always to God, and He will arrange them in due time.

Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. *

With this I want to recommend myself into the memory of the generous and learned owner [of this book], wishing him all kind of success
