Che si dee viver sobriamente’e non creder scioccamente.
One must lead a simple life and not be gullible.
Non esser ebbro, e altrui non porger fede
Disse Epicarmo, e ne
vivrai felice.
Ecco l’occhiuta
man; che quanto vede,
Crede esser vero, e
non quanto si dice.
Ecco il Pulegio, che gia esempio diede
(Herba
gentil) di quanto mangiar lice.
Col quale esempio Heraclito prudente
Da gran sedition tolse la gente.
