Latin 40r

Page:MS Latin 11269 40r.jpg

Propter prensuram, superb quaa, luctor et infra,
Vertice contundes terram. nec fata negabunt.

Apposui palmas faciei. sed tamen illas
Inde libens movi. quo[1] te dermergere possem
Prerensuris aliis. quas nunc ostendere tento.

Italian

Because of the hold that I have above and below you 
Your head will be broken on the ground. 

[4b-e] Per la presa che io ho desovra e ti desota
Faro che la testa in terra te sera rota

I've placed my hand on your face well like this. 
I'll make a demonstration of other holds for you. 

[4b-f] Le man al volto si to ben poste
Che de altre prese ti faro le'mostre

English 40r

 
✅ Because of this grasp, with which I wrestle above and below,
you will pound sand with the crown of your head. Nor will the fates deny it.

✅ I have placed [my] palm on [your] face.[2] But nevertheless it is pleasing [that]
I moved them afterwards. Which is why I was able to hurl
you down with other grasps; which I now attempt to show.


notes

This page has a lot of scribal oddities. For example, the first line has two places where different R glyphs are used when the p with underline would be expected, the 2-r form is used after an e in Vertice and after a u in Prensuris.

  1. ↑ Added later: "+ ut".
  2. ↑ This is unusual, in that the loser (unmarked) speaks this line. The following lines are written normally, from the point of view of the winner (crown and garter) as the first-person speaker.
