Latin 2r

Page:MS Latin 11269 02r.jpg

Nunc hastile gero sub aprino dente coruscans.
Utque [??] variare queam / penetrabo medullas.[1][2]


En venio retinens muliebrj pectore telum.
Nec vereor terram genibus contingere lentis.
Et feriam variata tamen tua lancea praedet.

Italian

I carry my lance in the Boar's Tusk: 
To deviate yours, I'll make mine enter.

[29a-b] Io porto mia lança a'dent de çenchiar
Per svariar la tua la mia io faro intrar

Because I have a short lance, I come in the Position of the Noblewoman: 
I hold myself certain to beat and to wound. 

[29b-b] Per curta lança che io ho in posta de dona vegno
Per rebater e ferir certo io me tegno

English 2r

Now I carry the spear moving quickly underneath in the manner of the boar's tusk.
And in order that I be able to cause [yours][3] to diverge, I will penetrate the marrows.

Lo, I come, holding back my javelin at the womanly breast.
I don't fear touching the ground due to my flexible knees.
And I would strike, having marked [you] black and blue, nevertheless, your lance will lose [the fight]

  1. ↑ The second line has been over-written to darken worn-away letters. If there were annotations, they have not survived.
  2. ↑ This pair of verses has a bracket at the end, which has been posited as indicating enjambment of the lines by Mondschein. As there is clearly a period at the end of the first line, this cannot be the case here.
  3. ↑ The illegible letters could conceivably form tuam, which would support this reading.
