In coloro, che lodano le cose, che non meritano laude.
On those who praise things that do not deserve praise.
Con poca essendo e male armata gente
Ruppe Antiocho
pił torme, c’havea
inanti:
Non gią perche foss’ei
troppo possente,
Ma
per aiuto sol de gli Helephanti.
Onde fatto un Thropheo, subitamente
A
un Pittor, che teneva i primi vanti,
Fe dipinger la bestia: e disse, quanto
Fu il vincer buon, me ne vergogno tanto.
