Latin 4r

Page:MS Latin 11269 4r.jpg

Tu pudibundus obhoc ensem vel forte relinques
Vel prostratus humi nullo prohibente iacebis.[1]

Expedit ut terram calcato pectore pulses.
Quidque velim de te potero tentare deinde.

English 4r

You, Shameful One, will either abandon the sword by chance because of this,
or you will lie prostrate[2] on the ground, restrained by nothing

It is expedient that you beat the ground while your chest is trampled underfoot.
I will be able to try whatever I would want [to do] next with regard to you.

  1. Enjambment bracket
  2. prostratus can mean struck down, exhausted, overthrown, or laid low. There is no indication in the text or image as to *why* the person is lying on the ground or how they got there.
