About The Door of One’s Heart Ostium Cordis Proprii

Textus Libri: Ostium Cordis Proprii est monile ex auro 18 quilatorum, adamantibus et smalto confectum. Bulla e duabus laminis ianuarum instar formatis constat. Cum pars posterior ad dextram movetur, duae ianuae circumvolvuntur et simul cor efficiunt. Nova structura fulcri intus in bulla motum permittit, et fibula subtilis ianuas ad angulum nonaginta graduum affigit. Monile duabus formis gestari potest, quarum quaeque proprium adspectum et significationem habet. Consilium lineis simplicibus utitur ad notionem aperiendi ostium cordis exprimendam.
