Che un dotto non dee biasimar l’altro.
A learned man should not reproach another.
Deh, perche Progne la Cicala, tanto
Crudel rapisci? Se
pennuto uccello
Sei tu con l’ali, č anchor’ella
altretanto.
Se canti sovra
un tenero arboscello,
Et ella ingombra il cielo del suo canto.
Et č grato
a chi l’ode
e questo e quello.
Dunque lascia la preda, che non dei
Uccider cosa, a cui compagna sei.

Ex bello pax.
Peace succeeding to war
EMBLEMA CLXXVIII.
Link to an image of this page [Aaa1v p738]En galea, intrepidus quam miles gesserat, & quae
Saepius hostili sparsa cruore fuit:
Parta pace apibus tenuis concessit in usum
Alveoli, atque favos, grataque mella gerit.
Arma procul iaceant: fas sit tunc sumere bellum
Quando aliter pacis non potes arte frui.[1]
See here a helmet which a fearless soldier previously wore and which was often spattered with enemy blood. After peace was won, it retired to be used as a narrow hive for bees; it holds honey-combs and nice honey. - Let weapons lie far off; let it be right to embark on war only when you cannot in any other way enjoy the art of peace.
1. Cf. Anthologia graeca, 6.236, where bees nest in what were once the beaks (projections at the prow) of war-galleys.
