Che si dee rimover l’Ignoranza.
Ignorance must be done away with.
Che Mostro è questo? Sphinge perche serba.
Faccia di donna,
e le sue membra veste
Piume d’augello, e di Leone ha i piede?
Dinota l’ignoranza, che procede
Da tre cagioni; o da intellecto
lieve,
O da vaghezza d’i
piacer mondani,
O da Superbia, che virtu
corrompe.
Ma l’huom, che sa perch’egli
è nato, a questa
S’oppone; e
vincitor felice vive.
