Latin 21v

Page:MS Latin 11269 21v.jpg

Primus ego dagae cautus[1] vocor ipse magister.
Cumque manu leva pretento tollere dagam.



Circum nempe tuum dagam convolvo lacertum.
Nec perdens illam miserum te pectore tundam.

Italian

I am the First Master of the Dagger, full of guile,
And with my left hand I will wind the dagger around your arm, 
And truth to tell I can make many other plays,
And my students will do them cunningly.

If I make a turn around your arm with my dagger,
I will strike you in the chest, and it will not be taken from me.

English 21v

 
I am called the first master of the dagger.
You lift with your hand and extended [arm] to steal the dagger.
