Fidei symbolum.
The symbol of good faith
XCV.
Stet depictus Honor tyrio velatus amictu,
Eiusque iungat nuda dextram Veritas.
Sitque Amor in medio castus,[1] cui tempora circum
Rosa it, Diones pulchrior Cupidine.[2]
Constituunt haec signa fidem, reverentia Honoris
Quam fovet, alit Amor, parturitque Veritas.
Let Honour stand depicted, clothed in a garment of Tyrian purple, and let naked Truth hold his right hand. Between them, let chaste Love be represented, his brow garlanded with roses, but fairer than Cupid, Dione’s boy. These images constitute good faith, which the reverence due to Honour fosters, Love feeds, Truth brings to birth.

Ein warzeychen der Trewe.
XCV.
Die Ehr stet hye beklaydt in rot,
Die ploß Warheyt gibt ir die hannd,
Zwischen in der keuschen Lieb got,
Der falschen Venus unbekant:
Das ist ein rechtes bild und pfannd
Gewiser Trew, die Erbarkeyt
Erzeuht, und Lieb in vestem stand
Erhelt, ein tochter der warheyt.

Contre les Retrayeurs de brigandz.
APOSTROPHE.
Larrons, brigandz suycte d’armes garnie
Te faict par ville (O Pompard) compaignie.
Ainsi prodigue estre anobly tu penses
Par telz mauvais. qui suyvent pour leurs panses:
Puys qu’ainsi has prins cornes: De tes chiens
Mangé seras, comme Acteon des siens.[1]
On fainct Acteon avoir esté mué en cerf, & mangé
par ses propres chiens. Ainsi ceulx, qui pour contre-
faire les nobles, entretiennent espadaciers, & levent
les cornes d’oultrecuidance, deviennent serfz à leurs
gens, & leur bien est finalement par iceulx consommé.
1. For the story of Actaeon turned into a stag and killed by his own hounds, see Ovid, Metamorphoses 3.138ff. Similarly, the hangers-on will destroy the one who has fed them.
