La imagine di Ocno. Di coloro, che donano alle meretrice, quello che dovrebbono rivolger nelle cose utili.

Ocnus’s Image. Regarding those who give to whores, what they should spend on useful things.


Tesse la fune di continuo; e un hora
Non perde mai la industriosa mano:
Ma quanto tesse, tanto ne divora
L’Asina, che non è molto lontano.
Cosi la donna ingozza, e fura, e toglie,
Quanto in molt’anni l’huomo insieme accoglie.
4. che: orig. ehe

In garrulum & gulosum.

Against a noisy and gluttonous fellow

Voce boat torva, praelargo est gutture, rostrum
Instar habet nasi multiforisque tubae.
Deformem rabulam, addictum ventrique gulaeque
Signabit, volucer cum truo pictus erit.

It screams with a harsh cry, it has an enormous throat, a beak like a spout or a many-holed trumpet. The pelican bird, when painted, will indicate an ugly ranter, enslaved to lust and belly.
