Latin 05r
- ¶ Te galea[1] prensum teneo / qui terga revolvis.
In terram post te currendo pectore mittam.
¶ Ut meo[2] tellurem calcato corpore tundas
Est opus . hoc faciunt contraria gesta . malignus
Tu tamen illud idem mihimet tentare cupisti.
Italian
Rrunning up behind you, I've grabbed you in such a way |
[33a-c] Acossi come io t'o preso corandoti dredo |
You wanted to yet throw me from my horse, |
[33a-d] Da cavallo me vulisti pur butare |
English 05r
¶ I maintain this grasp on your helmet, since you are turning your back,
I would send you to the ground and afterwards your chest will have been run [over].
¶ In this way, you would pound the earth with your trampled body,
The countering gestures are effective for this, [as] the work is spiteful.[3]
Nevertheless, YOU have desired to attempt the same with me of all people.[4]
