Latin 4r
- ¶ 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[1] 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] 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.
