Latin 5r

Page:MS Latin 11269 5r.jpg

Te galea[1] prensum teneo / qui terga revolvis.
In terram post te currendo pectore mittam.[2]

Ut modo tellurem calcato corpore tundas
Est opus . hoc faciunt contraria gesta . malignus
Tu tamen illud idem mihimet tentare cupisti.

English 5r


I maintain this capture by your helmet, since you are turning your back,
I would send [your] chest on the ground while galloping behind you.
