TextLa fiera testa che d'uman si cibapennis auratis volitum perquirit: sovr'ogni Italian questa preliba. Alba sub ventre palla decoratur perchT del mondo signorie richiede. velut eius aspectu demonstratur. Cist fier cimiers et la flamma che m'art soffrir m'estoit que son fier leopart. TranslationThe fierce head feeding on a human beingtries hard to fly with golden feathers: it excels over every Italian. It has an ornamental white ball under its belly because it seeks dominion over the world. as is shown by its appearance. I have to suffer this fierce helmet and the flame which burns me, because I am a proud leopard. Text revision and translation © Giovanni Carsaniga |
