Latin 01v

Page:MS Latin 11269 01v.jpg

Omnia nata oculis ego linx cernendo sub axe
Vinco mensurans quicquid tentare placeb[ ]

Prudentia

Sum celer in cursu subitosque[1] revolv[ ][2] in orbes
Nec me currentem superabunt fulmia[3] tigrim.

Celeritas

Quadrupedum sum fortis apex, audacia
Non/nam mea quis/uoque polo subsunt. nunc cordus(?) leonem || vincit
[ ] que'cumque ergo vocitamus ad arma

Audacia


Quatuor ecce sumus animalia moribus ampla
Quae monuit nam potens Potuit [...] in armis
Esse cupit clarus necnon probitate refulgens

Accipiat documenta sibi(?) / quae cernit o(?)esse
Pectoribus nuncius affixe indicitus. Inde
Ille erit armorum pr(?) doctus inter amicos.

[below doctus: …et (hand M?)]

And I always set things in order like a compass and ruler.

That even the bolt from the sky couldn't overtake me.

For I invite everyone to battle.

Pero de bataia faço a'zaschaduno invito

Chi vole armiçar de noii faça conparatione

English 1v

I, Lynx, defeat all things born under the heavens by means of [my] discerning eyes,
to try measuring everything will be satisfying

  1. ↑ 'subitos' is problematic, meaning plural masculine things that appear or attack unexpectedly. 'subito' is an adverb meaning 'suddenly', which appears several other times in the text. 'subitos' only appears here.
  2. ↑ The final letters are obliterated; the likeliest candidates are "am" or "or"
  3. ↑ This word does not appear in any dictionary. It must be a misspelling of some word related to lightning such as fulmen or a conjugation of fulminare.
  4. ↑ The bottom of the page, including the elephant verse, has been cut off.
