Latin 28v

Page:MS Latin 11269 28v.jpg

Ense meo clausi palmam. tu vertice tandem
Vulnera multa miser patieris. Quicquod at ipse
Efficio[1] / contra facio mucrone. et prevalet ista
Nexio permultum. quia plurima facta ministrat.


Obliquam in partem recta d(e?) parte subivj.
Hac igitur vitam linques cum cuspide tristem.

Italian

I have enclosed your hand with my sword,
And I will strike you a bargain with many strikes to your head; 
And I make a counter to the middle taking of the sword:
This bind I have made, which arises thus.

[23a-d] Serata t'o la mane cum mia spada
E de molte feride in la testa te faro derada
E del meçano tor de'spada faço contra
Questa ligadura o fata che asaii monta

I appear to come from the right, but I enter on the left 
To give you this thrust with pain and harm;
I make myself called Deceitful Thrust by name,
And I am so cruel as I exchange the point of the sword. 

[21b-c] Mostraii de'vegner dal drito in lo riversso intraii
Per darte questa punta cum dolore e guaii
Punta falssa per nome io me faço chiamar
Cussi son crudelle che de spada punta schambiar

English 28v

 
I confined the palm using my sword. You, the Wretched One, will, in the end,
suffer many wounds on the top of your head. And whatever I myself
bring about, I work against using the sword. And that binding prevails
greatly. Because it [the binding] serves up many actions.


From the straight side, I move under into the other side.[2]
Here accordingly you quit the sad life by means of the point.

Note that in the upper register, the text looks like a good match for Pisani-Dossi, but the Florius illustration seems to show a different moment of action, and show it from the other side of the fight.

  1. ↑ This might be a typo for efficit, which is supported by the use of 'ipse', and the fact that the next clause has the speaker working against this action
  2. ↑ Note that the Italian uses straight and curved for the right and left sides. So this is potentially a movement from the right to the left sides
