Che l’huomo dee indrizzarsi, dove è chiamato da Iddio.
Man must go where he is called by God.
La, dove molte vie diversa strada
Porgono a
l’huom, sopra un sassoso colle
Posta è la Imagin di Mercurio. Bada
Tu,
ch’erri
per terreno asciutto o molle;
Ch’ei
demonstra la dritta, onde si vada
Per sicuro camin, ch’al
giogo estolle.
Tutti errano qua giu per questa
valle,
Se la destra di Dio non mostra il calle.
