English 01v
¶ I, the Lynx, defeat all things born under the heavens by means of [my] discerning eyes,
to try measuring everything will be satisfying
Prudence
¶ I am swift in the course and I would turn in sudden circles,[8]
and lightning bolts[9] don't surpass me, the Running Tiger.
Swiftness
¶ I, Audacity, am the strong peak of quadrupeds
due to my nature. They are likewise under the pole star. now it conquers
and overcomes the lion of the heart. Therefore we call everyone to arms
Audacity
- ↑ The final letters are obliterated; the likeliest candidates are "am" or "or"; we felt the reading with "am" resulted in a better translation overall.
- ↑ 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.
- ↑ This was previously read as "Nam"
- ↑ This abbreviation can also be read "nec."
- ↑ This punctuation mark is not used elsewhere in the text, and its meaning is not known. It could be a tie-mark indicating a word written in the margin and labeled with this punctuation should be inserted here.
- ↑ These words are not visible in standard photography; this reading is based on ultraviolet imaging.
- ↑ The bottom of the page, including the elephant verse, has been cut off.
- ↑ This reading assumes 'revolvam'. The alternate reading with 'revolvor' would be: I am swift in the course and I am turned in the rising and setting spheres. Interestingly, each of the three extant animal verses here includes a prepositional phrase with no parallel in the Italian which can be read as a reference to "the heavens", but in the Tiger's verse we preferred the reading that matched the rest of the Italian better.
- ↑ We're reading fulmia as a shortened form or misspelling of fulmina.
