Latin 23v

Page:MS Latin 11269 23v.jpg

[1] Non labor est ullus mihi te sternendo cadentem.
Surgere nec poteris sine grandi vulnere liberj.


Me tego luctantem sicut cruce nempe lacertis.
Omnibus atque modis possum colludere primis.

Italian

It is no trouble for me to make you fall, 
But rising will be a great struggle for you.

And I cover with my arms crossed
And I can do all the plays that have gone before, 
And none of those of the backhand will miss
Since I can do them all one by one.

English 23v

 
It is not any work for me having scattered you, the Fallen One
You are not able to rise up free of great wounds

I cover myself when wrestling in the same way as in a cross, with the arms, of course.[2]
And I can play with all of the previous methods.

  1. Interestingly, this page appears to be dirty and damaged; the recto looks like it’s warped from water damage. The next several pages also show warping; the art quality has also declined substantially.
  2. The initial of this line is ambiguous and can be read as M or N. We have interpreted it as an M. If it were an N, the line would begin "I do not cover," but we believe this is not compatible with the rest of the verse.
