Che si deve perseverar nelle imprese malagevoli.
One must persevere in difficult undertakings.
A chi la preme, l’honorata
palma
Fa di se un’arco; e ne solleva
poi,
E con impeto al ciel leva la salma.
Fanciullo ascendi, e stringi i
rami suoi:
Che di che frutti t’emperai
le mani,
Ch’ornan
le mense, e
rari son fra noi.
Non fian, si soffri, i tuoi sudori vani.

Pour celluy qui ne scet flater.
Veulx tu savoir, Pourquoy c’est que Thessaille
D’ung duc, ą aultre, ainsi souvent tressaille?
(C’est qu’a flater elle n’ha point apprins ce,
Lequel vice est en toute court de Prince,
Mais comme ung noble, & bon cheval, met bas
Son chevaucheur qui regir ne scet pas)[1]
Point toutesfois cruel ne soit le maistre,
Ung mors plus dur pour vengence doibt estre.
Les rebellions populaires viennent par
mauvaise administration des Princes.
1. See Plato, Politicus 261d for the image of the ruler as supervisor of a stud of horses.
