Latin 14v
¶ In medio nunc ense tenens ego callidus ensem
Ceu cruce / percutiam laevum tibi nempe lacertum
Sit nimis hoc tempus breve quaque uis tanta probando
¶ Te ferio velut ille prior tulit[1] ante magister.
Qui cruce mucronem retinet /[2] quo fallere possit.
Italian
|
By crossing at mid-sword, I will strike your left arm; |
[19b-c] Per incrosar a'meça spada el braço stancho te feriro |
|
From the Master who crosses at mid-sword, |
[19b-d] Per lo magistro che incrosa a'meça spada |
English 14v
¶ I cleverly holding the sword now in the middle of the sword
as in a cross, I will certainly thrust through your left shoulder
However exceedingly short this time might be, everything having been tested with such strength.
¶ I strike a bargain with you just as that earlier master told before.
Whoever retains the sword with the cross is therefore able to deceive.[3]
