Che dalle cose faticose s’acquista perpetuo nome.
From difficult undertakings, one can achieve everlasting renown.
Lascia i figli nel nido, ov’egli
pende,
L’uccel; ne teme
di futuri lutti.
Ecco il Serpe gli vede, e al ramo ascende
De l’arbor, dove
sono, e mangia tutti.
Cosi, quant’è; difficultà maggiore,
Tanto più
acquista industria eterno honore.
Title. s’acquista
perpetuo: orig. s’acquista.
perpetuo
