Latin 26r

Page:MS Latin 11269 26r.jpg

Tam celer hoc actu faciem tibi nempe rescindam.
Discipulus docet hoc cruce ducens ensis amictum
Per terram. Sed mucro tuus vel flexus abibit
Vel fractus numquam poteris operarier[1] illum.

Percutiam nulloque tuum prohibente tenebo
Pignore mucronem / tam turpiter ipse gubernas
Jura tenedo meum. quo nunc traiectus obibis.

Italian

From the crossing at the ground which the Scholar makes 
I come to cut your face because of my swiftness;
And your sword will end up bent or broken
And it will no more be able to work or bargain.

Because of your hilt which I hold in my hand,
I will strike you and your sword will be my prize. 

English 26r

 
Nevertheless, I, the Swift One, would truly cut out your face using this act.[2]
The student teaches this: leading to the act of cloaking the sword in the ground from the location of the cross[3].
But your tip will either go away bent
or be broken. You can never again use that [sword].

I would hit your tip and hindered by none I will
hold the surety / you conduct yourself so disgracefully
you must swear an oath by holding[4] mine [my sword] / by which you will now die transfixed.

  1. Added later: "pro operarj".
  2. celer can either be an adjective or a verb, leading to two possible readings. celer as an adjective is more common and appears elsewhere in this text. celer as a verb links to the act of cloaking, amictum, in the next line. Here is our alternate reading of the first line: Nevertheless I would be shielded [and] truly cut out your face using this act.
  3. cruce is locative case, which the translation reflects
  4. Using DuCange's parts of speech for teneo (TENERE, Tenens, Tenedo, Tenementum), we assume that tenedo is the gerundive form. "-edo" is not a verb form included in typical Latin grammar.
