Book 15:
6. haec augente vulgatius fama tantum aberat, ut proderet quisquam visa nocturna, ut aegre homines dormisse sese praesentibus faterentur externis, maerebantque docti quidam, quod apud Atlanteos nati non essent, ubi memorantur somnia non videri, quod unde eveniat rerum scientissimis relinquamus.

More common the rumour only was being away these with the increasing, in order that the any was projecting the nocturnal visions, in order that scarcely the men to have slept with the present outward himself were admiting, and the learned certain were bewailing, because at Atlanteuses the sons might be not, where are remembered the dreams not to be seen, which from where happens with the most knowing of the things we relinquish.


Book 17:
7... And therefore Neptune of the moist nature the power [Ennosigaeon] and Sisichthona of the poet the ancients and the theologians have called.

They happen but with the manners of the lands of the movement four.

Or indeed the heavings are, which the ground within encouraging up defeat the most huge masses, as in Asia has escaped Deluses and with Hiera and Anaph and Rhodus, Ophiusa and Pelagia more ahead ages said often, with the gold coin formerly with the rain overspread, and with Eleusina in Boeotia and at Tyrrenuses Vulcan and the more islands;

Or the earthquakes which the limit destroying and slanting the cities the buildings and the mountains smooth out;

Or the earthquakes which more grand movement sudden with the revealed [uoratrinis] devour the parts of the lands, as in sea Atlanticus to Europaeus with the circle more spacious the St. island and in Crisaeus bending with Helic and plough beam and in Ciminia to Italy passed with the part the town Saccumum towards deep Erebuses the openings with the eternal darknesses are hidden.

Between these three species the lands of the movements [mycematiae] with the noise threatening are heard with the loose the elements with the bonds besides jump even fall back with the collapsing lands.

S/he/it is indeed then necessary just as with the of a bull to resound with the lowings the noises and the earthly roars.

But hence towards began.


Book 29:
25. Primo intro vocatus post interrogatiunculas leves Pergamius, a Palladio, ut dictum est, proditus quaedam inprecationibus praescisse nefariis, sicut erat inpendio eloquentior et in verba periculosa proiectus, inter ambigentes iudices, quid prius quaeri debeat quidve posterius, dicere audacter exorsus, multa hominum milia quasi consciorum sine fine strependo fundebat, modo non ab extremo Atlante magnorum criminum arguendos poscens aliquos exhiberi.

With the first Pergamius I enter the urgent calls after the trivial inter-minor questions, from Palladius, as the saying is, projected certain with the imprecations criminal to have got to know beforehand, as with the expense more eloquent was being and into the dangerous words precipitate, between hesitating judges, which the earlier times ought to be asked or why more following, to say boldly began, the much was pouring the thousands of the men as if of the accomplices without boundary resounding, but not from the most outer Atlant of the great indictments proving asking some to be presented.

quo, ut consarcinante nimis ardua, morte multato, aliisque gregatim post illum occisis, ad ipsius Theodori causam quasi ad Olympici certaminis pulverum pervenitur.

Where, as with the stitching together exceedingly the steep places, with the death with the punished, and with the other in flocks after that with the killed, towards the cause of him/it/theirself Theodorus as if about of the Olympan contest of the dusts is reached.
