Prima omnium cura
sit ut colas deum et ames, muliebrem sexum honores,
et eo modo gloria tua augebitur:
eo discas,
quae te deceant,
in bello et ubique virtute et robore virium utere,






ita ut fortitudo tua omnibus
probetur.

Brief statement of the character of the longer sword

1. First, you should undertake in all things that you worship and love God,
2. you should honor the feminine sex,
3. and your fame will be increased by this means:
4. therefore, you should learn
5. those things, which would be appropriate for you,
6. use the force and strength of oaks everywhere and in (beautiful) war,
7. such that your fortitude is thus approved by all.
