Latin 5v

Page:MS Latin 11269 5v.jpg

Crure simul stafile levans / te vertet ad imum
Hec mea dextra potens. nec erit quae molliat artus.[1]

Aspice quam forti teneo tua[2] colla lacerto /
Qui modo per terram frustra conatis[3] inermem[4]
Spargere[5] tentabas. sed te contraria vincunt .

English 5v


Lifting by the leg and also by the stirrup[6], this, my strong right [hand],
will turn you to the farthest [the ground], nor will there be anything which would enfeeble [my] limb [arm].




Observe how I hold your neck with my strong upper arm


  1. To the right of the verse are a bracket, a +, and some erased words. The binding did not open wide enough to reveal these with ultraviolet photography.
  2. Added later: "pro tui".
  3. This can also be read "conatus"
  4. Added later: "scilicet".
  5. This separation between the initial letter and remainder of the first word of the line is inconsistent with the rest of the text.
  6. stafile is probably a form of staffa, listed in DMLBS meaning "stirrup" and borrowed from German
