Che le vergine si debbono con molta diligenza custodire.
Virgins must be watched over carefully.
De la vergine Palla qui si vede
La vera effigie; e le si mostra a
lato
Il buon Drago fedele, à cui si diede
La custodia del tempio à lei
sagrato.
Questo porge à chi mira esempio e fede,
Che mal si serba il
virginale stato,
Se guardato non ven: che sempre amore
Cerca a quel
per piu vie di tor l’honore.
