Latin 05r
¶ Ut modo tellurem calcato corpore tundas
Est opus . hoc faciunt contraria gesta . malignus
Tu tamen illud idem mihimet tentare cupisti.
English 05r
¶ I maintain this grasp on your helmet, since you are turning your back,
I would send [your] chest on the ground while galloping behind you.
¶ If you were to beat the ground with a trampled corpse in this way,
The countering gestures are effective for this. The work is spiteful.[3]
Nevertheless, you want to attempt the same at myself.
- ↑ Added later: “??eeu vit”. Could this be “heeume”, misspelling of “heaume”, old french for “helmet”? There are certainly letters beginning above the g in “galea” and reaching to above the e in “prensum”, but we can’t make out enough to guess further. If the latter word is meant to be “heaume”, this must be hand F.

- ↑ The countering gestures are grammatically surrounded by spite.
