Forza della natura.
The power of Nature.
Pan mezzo capra, & huomo, a noi dimostra
La virtute, e’l
poter de la Natura
In sino a l’ombilico
ha faccia nostra,
Ch’è; del miglior di noi fine e misura.
Il resto è capra, che dinota e
mostra
Che le spetie mantien la costei cura
D’huomini, e d’animali; o
perche al sommo
Sta la ragion, che sol distingue l’huomo.

Contre les babillards & goulus.
LXXXIII.
Qui veut peindre un criard, laid, friand & gourmand,
A voix grosse & maussade au gosier large & grand,
Au bec nasé, ou fluste en
plusieurs lieux trouëe,
Qu’il peigne le butor à la voix enrouëe.

Commentaires.
Le Butor, qui s’appelle onocrotale & truo, a le
nez en guise de trompette, le gosier merveilleuse-
ment evasé, & la voix tant bramarde, qu’il semble
que ce soit un asne qui raille. Ainsi quelques uns, par
leur maussade glatissment, & par leur importun babil,
meslent le ciel avec la terre, combien que leur langage ne soit
autre chose, qu’un son privé de sens & de raison. Ceux
cy
sont tellement addonnés à la gouillardise, qu’ils n’ont rien
que la langue & le cul: & toutesfois le menu peuple
en fait grand cas.
