Argumentum: Propterea quod quoties Latine loquentes convenio rogor imprimis quo pacto litterarum Latinarum notitiam acceperim ego qui terram remotissimam, Malawiam, patriam voco, narrabo de hisce studiis apud academiam illius Kamuzu Banda, Malawiae primi praesidis, ubi ego sum educatus. Porro quo pacto idem praeses per totam Malawiam divulgare haec studia conatus sit ac de eorundem studiorum statu praesente disseram.
