Ni çera tras oydo.
Ottava rhima.
Aun este mal despues de tantos males
Para rehazer la chaça, nos restava?
Que la langosta nuestros sementales
Campos nos destruyesse hasta una
hava.[1]
No fueron tan copiosos los reales
De Atylas ni de Xerxes,[2] qual bolava
La langosta del Euro acarreada. [M]
Nuestra esperança en voto
està trocada.
[Marginalia - link to text]D’el Solano viento.

EMBLEMA CXC [=189] .
Obnoxia infirmitas.
Weakness is vulnerable
Pisciculos Orata [=Aurata]
rapit medio aequore sardas,
Ni fugiant pavidae summa marisque petant?
Link to an image of this page [R4v f119v]Ast ibi sunt mergis fulicisque voracibus esca
Eheu intuta manens undique debilitas.
The little sardines the golden wrasse swallows in the depths of the ocean, unless in fear they flee and make for the surface of the sea. But there they provide a meal for greedy divers and other sea-birds. Alas for weakness, remaining everywhere at risk.
Das CXC [=189] .
Wolgeplagte Armut.
Die Goldbraßmen im mitten Meer
Die Fischlein Sardein engstet sehr
Wann sie nicht fliehen also gschwind
Zu öberst sie gefressen sind
Aber da werdens graubt zur Speiß
Von Breßlin und Merchen on greiß
Ach Gott wie ist die arm schwachheit
An allen orten nider gleidt.
