Chronologia, hoc est. : Omnium temporum et annorum ab initio mundi usque ad resurrectionem Domini nostri Iesu Christi computatio. In qua methodicè enumerantur omniu[m] populorum, regnorumq[ue] memorabiliu[m] origines ac successiones. Item omnes eorum reges, quando quisq[ue] coeperit, quam diu regnarit, quid memoria dignum gesserit, quiq[ue] eodem tempore simul diuersis locis imperarint, quis status populi Dei fuerit, ac quemadmodu[m] summum imperium ab uno populo ad alterum sit translatu[m], donec tandem omnia Romanoru[m] potentiae sunt subiecta. Et si qui uiri illustres, quae facinora egregia, ac si quid amplius memoratu dignum extitit, ea omnia breuiter suis locis referuntur. Suntq[ue] in hac computatione omnia tempora, tum ex Sacris Biblijs, cum ex optimis quibusq[ue] autorib. historicis, & astronomor[um] obseruationibus summa fide ac diligentia conciliata. Item commentariorum liber unus. /

Adiunctis obiter ijs historijs, quae in ipso chronologias opere asscribi nequiuerunt, ueruntamen ad declarationem istiusmodi locorum summè uidebantur necessariae. Auctore Iohanne Functio.
