Latin 10r
- ¶ Hac ego captura[1] the faciam fortasse rotatum.
Hinc tua perdetur / mea secundum te fronte tricuspis
Percutiet / modo fata velint superesse potenti.
- ¶ Ensis sive ferus iaculetur / scindere[2] sive
Praeparet alter / adhuc cupiat me cuspide solum /
Haec cautela docet / ne nunc ridendo[3] pavescam.
Italian
[28a-a] Per questa presa io faro una volta presta
Tua aça perderai la mia te ferira in la testa
- I will make a quick rotation from this catch:
You will lose your axe; mine will strike you in the head.
[13a-c] Per lançare de spada e trare taiio e punta
Per la guardia che io ho niente me monta
Vegna a'uno a'uno chi contra mi vole far
Che cum tuti io voio contrastar
E chi vole vedere coverte e ferire
Tor de spada e ligadure senza falire
Guardi ghi mie scolari como san fare
Se elli non trovan contrario non ano pare
- Whether throwing the sword or striking cuts and thrusts,
It amounts to nothing because of the guard that I hold.
Come one by one whoever wants to go against me
Because I want to contend with you all.
And whoever wants to see covers and strikes,
Taking the sword and binding without fail,
Watch what my Scholars know how to do:
If you don't find a counter, they have no equal.
English 10r
¶ Perhaps I would make a rotation using this capture.
From there, your [triple-point] is lost, afterwards, my triple-point beats you in the face.
If the fates are willing for the strong to survive.

- ↑ We are translating 'captura' as 'the taking' or 'the takings'. Other possible contexts for this word in Latin are from hunting (captura=prey, the fishing catch, the bag of animals brought in) or from economics, in which 'captura' refers to ill-gotten or immorally gained profits.
- ↑ The second letter appears to have been corrected.
- ↑ A pun for ridere/riddare?.
