Pour une belle trop tost morte
en jeunesse.[1]
Apostrophe.
Mort, oses tu tant amour decevoir,
Qu’il traict tes dardz pensans les siens avoir.
C’est une deploration de quelque belle
fille jeune, atteincte de Mort: l’ors qu’el-
le debvoit estre
attaincte d’Amour, Par
l’erreur que dessus.
Notes:
1. The iconography of the emblems ‘De morte et amore’ and ‘In formosam fato praereptam’ (previous emblem) is confused in many editions.
