Latin 4r

Page:MS Latin 11269 4r.jpg

Tu pudibundus obhoc ensem vel forte relinques
Vel prostratus humi nullo prohibente iacebis.

Expedit ut terram calcato pectore pulses.
Quidque velim de te potero tentare deinde.

English 4r

You [are] appropriately shameful, therefore, you wil either abandon the sword by chance,
or you, prostrate[1], will lie down on the ground, restrained by nothing

Bottom verse line 1
Bottom verse line 2

[1] prostratus can mean struck down, exhausted, overthrown, or laid low. There is no indication in the text of image as to *why* the person is lying on the ground or how they got there.
