Latin 24r
¶ Subque meo levo[1] dexter tuus ecce lacerto
Clauditur. inclusum mala te quam plura morantur.
- ¶ Me licet impressum teneas / retinendo lacertum
Inferiore tum clave pressura nocebit.
Italian
Your right arm is enclosed under my left; |
[6b-a] Lo tuo braço drito soto el'mio mancho e serato |
Because you have enclosed my arm this way, |
[6b-b] Perche tu m'abii cusi asserato mio braço |
English 24r
¶ Behold! your right side is enclosed under my left
shoulder. How many calamities linger over you, the Imprisoned One.
¶ If you cannot hold[2] that compression[3],
It will then injure the shoulder of the Retained One using the lower key.
- ↑ Maybe "laevo".
- ↑ The initial of this line is ambiguous and could be M or N. We have read it as N, but if it were M, the line might begin "Although you would hold me".
- ↑ Impressum often means something that has been marked or decorated using pressure, such as a printed page or tooled leather. On this page, the writer seems to be creating parallel imagery or puns about pressure and confinement, but has mixed up their relative position compared to the Italian.
