Obnoxia infirmitas.
Weakness is vulnerable
Pisciculos Orata [=Aurata]

Ni fugiant pavidae summa marisque petant?

Eheu intuta manens undique debilitas.
The little sardines the golden wrasse swallows in the depths of the ocean, unless in fear they flee and make for the surface of the sea. But there they provide a meal for greedy divers and other sea-birds. Alas for weakness, remaining everywhere at risk.
Das CXC [=189] .
Wolgeplagte Armut.
Die Goldbraßmen im mitten Meer
Die Fischlein Sardein engstet sehr
Wann sie nicht fliehen also gschwind
Zu öberst sie gefressen sind
Aber da werdens graubt zur Speiß
Von Breßlin und Merchen on greiß
Ach Gott wie ist die arm schwachheit
An allen orten nider gleidt.
