Latin 02v

¶ Regia forma decet muliebris. teque mucrone^[1]
Percutiens contra que furens transmittet ad umbras
Hic animus / faveant illi modo numina caeli.

¶ Stringens membra simul, iaculum complector^[2] acerbus
In medio. tardatus eris refringere^[3] tandem
Vulnere letali sonipes^[4] tuus ictus abibit.

With my sword, I will beat your lance, And with either the point or the edge I will strike you.	[30b-b] Cum la spada tua lança io rebatero O de punta o de taglio io te feriro
At mid-lance thus I come, well-enclosed So that you will delay in beating my lance. I trust I will strike your horse without fail; You will see my play carried out hereafter.	[31a-a] A meça lança io vegno acossi ben asserato Che a'rebater mia lança tu sera intardato De ferir el tuo cavallo sença fallo el'credo Vederaii Lo mio çogho conpire aqui dedredo

↑ Added later: "de la pointe".
↑ Added later: "remoror [!] jaculum".
↑ The translator appears to be using 'stringere-refringere' as a pair, as both words are associated with defending and attacking fortified gates, for rhetorical effect; however, English doesn't have a good oppositional pair that also conveys the meanings of the words.
↑ Added later: "eqqus". Probably meant to be “equus”, but the two q’s are fairly clear.
