Latin 40r

Page:MS Latin 11269 40r.jpg

Propter prensuram, superb quaa, luctor et infra,
Vertice contundes terram. nec fata negabunt.

Apposui palmas faciei. Sed tamen illas
Inde libens movi. Quo[1] te dermergere possem
Prerensuris aliis. quas nunc ostendere tento.

Italian

Because of the hold that I have above and below you 
Your head will be broken on the ground. 

I've placed my hand on your face well like this. 
I'll make a demonstration of other holds for you. 

English 40r

 
Because of this grasp, whereby I wrestle above and below,
you will pound sand with the crown of your head. Nor will the fates deny it.

I have placed [my]palm on [your] face.
But nevertheless it is pleasing [that] I removed these [hands] hence,
For which reason I was able to plunge you away with other grasps;
Which I now attempt to point out.


notes

This page has a lot of scribal oddities. For example, the first line has two places where different R glyphs are used when the p with underline would be expected, the 2-r form is used after an e in Vertice and after a u in Prensuris.

  1. Added later: "+ ut".
