Latin 12v

Page:MS Latin 11269 12v.jpg

Nomine quisque vocat[1] situs / et custodia fallax.
Altera consimilis aliae / contraria [2] necnon.
Sicut et hic posite / similes sic prendimus actus.

Ferrea porta vocor terrena aequaliter ab omni /
Quae semper reparo / cesurae et cuspidis ictus.

Audax / excelsus / muliebris sum situs. alta
Et quocunque modo defendo membra furentis.

Regalis verae: situs hic sum nempe fenestrae:
Et volucrem[3] fateor clara me semper in arte.

Ferrea sum fortis / medianaque Janua dicor.
Doque graves ictus. et cuspide querito mortem.

Italian

We are called stances and guards by name,
And we are each one similar and contrary to another;
And following the way we stand and are positioned,
We will demonstrate how to make one against another.
The Full Iron Gate, I am low to the ground
So that I always restrain cuts and thrusts.
I am the Stance of the Queen, noble and proud
For making defense in every manner;
And whoever wants to contend against me
Will want to find a longer sword than mine.
I am the royal Stance of the True Window
And I am always quick with the whole art.
The Middle Iron Gate, I am strongest
For giving death with thrusts and downward blows:
And through the length of my sword, I feel that
From the narrow play I always defend myself.
