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, è anchor’ella
altretanto.
Se canti sovra
un tenero arboscello,
Et ella ingombra il cielo del suo canto.
Et è grato
a chi l’ode
e questo e quello.
Dunque lascia la preda, che non dei
Uccider cosa, a cui compagna sei.

Parem delinquentis, & suasoris
culpam esse.
The one who urges wrongdoing is as guilty as the one who does the wrong
Praeconem lituo perflantem classica, victrix
Captivum in tetro carcere turba tenet.
Queis ille excusat: quòd nec sit strenuus armis,
Ullius aut saevo laeserit ense latus.
Huic illi: Quin ipse magis timidissime peccas,
Qui clangore alios aeris in arma cies.[1]
The victorious troop holds captive in a foul dungeon a herald, who sounds military commands on his trumpet. To them he makes his excuses - he is no strong fighting man and has wounded no one’s side with a cruel sword. They reply: You abject coward, you are in fact more guilty, for you with the sound of your trumpet stir up others to fight.
1. This is a version of Aesop, Fables 325.
