Che le buone deliberationi si debbono mettere in opera ą tempo.
Good decisions should be put into action on time.
Ch’esser
dobbiamo in ogni impresa nostra
Presti ad
oprar, e nel discorrer lenti,
Il pesce avolto a la saetta il mostra,
Che suol
nave fermar ne i maggior venti
Questi n’accrescan
la prudenza nostra
O
voi, che sete a riguardar intenti.
Tardo l’un
l’altra
veloce e leve;
Effetti, che patir l’huomo
non deve.

IN DEPREHENSUM.
Caught.
Emblema. 21.
Iam dudum quacunque fugis, te persequor: at[1] nunc
Cassibus in nostris denique captus ades.
Amplius haud poteris vires illudere nostras:
Ficulno anguillam strinximus in folio.[2]
For a long time now I have been pursuing you wherever you flee; but now you are here, at long last caught in our net. You will no longer be able to violate our power - we have gripped the eel tight in a fig-leaf.
