Disbound.

Complete Latin poetry of Porsius (1556-1610), professor of poetry at Vienna University and a secretary to Emperor Rudolf II. Most important is the "Itere Byzantinum", describing places and people met on a diplomatic mission to the Sublime Porte in 1579. On account of its many details Porsius’ text is more a historical poem than a hodoeporicon.
