text and translation

The new edition is either unpublished or unavailable. The following is taken from an old edition (Skj where relevant):

ambo igitur contraria sunt ideo que similiter in genere contrariorum concluduntur atque secundum genus in quantum contraria sunt similia esse dinoscuntur et quoniam non omnis dictio translata a propria significatione ad non propriam similitudinem tropus est si neque decoris neque necessitatis causa ipsa translatio fiat ut si hominem neque corpore durum neque ingenio stolidum lapidem dicas signanter in ipsa tropi definitione subnexum est ornatus necessitatis ue causa siquidem in omni tropo haec consideranda sunt primo dictio translata secundo similitudo non propria tertio quoque ornatus siue necessitas siue utrumque.
