Latin 33r

Page:MS Latin 11269 33r.jpg

Taliter ipse[1] tuam convolvam turbine dagam /
Quod tibi sive vetes[2] capiam / tu sive repugnes.


Si prope[3] nunc cubitum dagam tibi tollere tento,
Illa te subito privatum nempe videbis.

Italian

I will make your dagger do a turn, 
So that it will quickly be taken from you. 

If I lift your dagger behind your elbow, 
You will feel that it will be quickly taken from you. 

English 33r

 
In this way, I myself will carry your dagger away with a whirling motion,
Because I seize that thing of yours, whether you prevent or YOU fight back


If I now attempt to lift your forearm near the dagger,
You will certainly see those things in their sudden ascension[4] for the purpose of depriving you

  1. Added later: "scilicet ego".
  2. This looks like it may have originally said “veter” but was corrected to “vetes” (e.g. from first person present passive to second active present).
  3. See Capelli 285; this can be read as either prope (near) or proprie (specifically).
  4. Subito has two meanings that both seem relevant here ("suddenly, immediately" and "going under, going upward"), and there's no way to tell if only one is intended, so we have used both.
