Latin 6r

Page:MS Latin 11269 6r.jpg

Si me rolandus[1] peditem pulicanus[2] et asper
Fraxinea[3] peterent hasta spectando morarer /[4]
Dextraque vel iaculum teneat vel turbida clavam[5].
Atque repercussis feriam furibundior[6] hastis./
Quamprimum hoc actu retraham capita alta prementum.[7]


Nunc secat ista tuum caput amplo vulnere mestum[8]
Lancea. meque movet tum:idi cautela magistri.[9]

Italian (Novati)

Even if Rolando and Pulicano were to make me an invitation with lances,
I would await them in this match with spear or with staff;
I will beat their lances and I will strike their heads
As I depart from this guard.

I cut you in the head with my spear
From the guard of the Master which is so quick.

English 6r


If Roland and the rude Pulicanus were to attack me, a footman,
with spears made of ash, I would have delayed and observed [them],
and if he holds [it] like a javelin on the right side or an unruly club,
by causing the spears to rebound, I would strike more furiously
at the lofty heads. As soon as possible, I would pull back [withdraw], overwhelming them with this action.

The lance now cuts your gloomy head with great wounds.
