Das VI. Capitel
„Nach der erzwungenen Auslachenswuͤrdigkeit, die ſol-
„che abgeſchmackte Leute wahren Criticis aufbuͤrden wollen,
„wuͤrde dis beluſtigende von allen Kuͤnſten und natuͤrlichen
„Schoͤnheiten verlohren gehen. Sogar in Trachten und
„Sitten wuͤrden wir zu dieſen Zeiten ſo barbariſch werden,
„als wir in unſern Ergetzungen und Luſtbarkeiten ſind. Doch
„will ichs von dieſen Feinden der Critick hoffen, ſie wuͤrden
„nicht ſo unhoͤflich, oder ſo fern von aller Menſchlichkeit ſeyn,
„zu behaupten: daß das allerbarbariſchſte Leben, und viehi-
„ſche Beluſtigungen, eben ſo hoch als die artigſten und poli-
„teſten Vergnuͤgungen zu ſchaͤtzen waͤren.
„Meines theils, wenn ich zuweilen Maͤnner von bekann-
„ter Geſchicklichkeit, mit einem weibiſchen und klaͤglichen
„Thone wieder die Criticos habe eifern hoͤren, habe ich wirck-
„lich gedacht; ſie haͤttens im Sinne, den anwachſenden Geiſt
„junger Leute, die ihnen nacheifern, niederzuſchlagen; indem
„ſie dieſelben von derjenigen Unterſuchung und Pruͤfung ab-
„zuwenden ſuchen, ohne welche eine tuͤchtige Arbeit ſowohl
„als ein richtiges Urtheil nicht beſtehen kan.
