The epigrams are organized into seven "decades" with an appendix of poems that the author promises are "metri rarioris." The Google Books scan is unfortunately a bit blurry, but basically readable (I wish they would offer the color scans of these later books as they are doing for the 16th- and 17th-century books!). I'll certainly be able to find some nice distichs here, such as this one:
15. Officium Iudicis
Iudex iustitiae sit sidus et integer index;
Ni faciat, vindex est gravis ipse Deus.
