Latin 21r

Page:MS Latin 11269 21r.jpg

Nam palma tutam signo sic defero dagam.
Cum manibus tollam cunctis gestantibus ipsam.

Cum cunctos superem qui possunt bellica mecum
Pro manibus fractis ornatus porto lacertis.

Brachia conclaudas cunctis bellantibus orbe
Taliter ut dextram nequeant praetendere tutam /
Nunc letus claves manibus sic congero binas.

Queris cur pedibus pessundo gloria tales
Cur luctando viros dico prosternere cuntos
Palma quidem nostra praetenditur sistere dextra.

Italian

After taking away your dagger, to signify my victory
I hold it in my raised hand in this manner.

Because I triumph over those who fight with me,
I carry torn-off broken arms as a decoration.

Locking the arms of all opponents
In such a way that none can safely extend their right hand,
To show my success I carry a pair of keys in my hand.

You ask how I force others to the ground under my feet with such prowess, 
I tell you that because I grapple each man and throw him down;
The victory palm is appropriately held in my right hand.
