Che sempre le disaventure sono apparecchiate.

Mishaps are always in readiness.


Tre fianciulle giuocavano a la sorte
Di chi di lor toccasse a uscir di vita.
E quella, a cui peggior venne la sorte
L’una e l’altre compagna havea schernita:
Quando l’aversa irreparabil sorte
Fe che’da un trave al capo fu ferita,
Che d’alto cade, e fe morendo chiaro,
Che ria sventura suol fallir di raro.
