Te galea ??eeu vit[1] prensu[m] teneo | qui terga revolvis.
In t[er]ram post te cu[r]rendo pecto[r]e mitta[m].

Ut [modo] tellure[m] calcato corpo[r]e tundas
Est opus . hoc faciu[n]t [con]traria gesta . malign[us]
Tu t[ame]n illud ide[m] m[ihi] met tentare cupisti.

  1. Could this be heeume, misspelling of heaume, old french for helmet? There are certainly letters beginning above the g in galea and reaching to above the e in prensum, but we can’t make out enough to guess further. If the latter word is meant to be “heaume,” this must be hand F.
