XXVI.
TOy, qui te bats à gents forclos d’espoir,
Trop entreprendz perilleuse bataille:
Car lors qu’ilz sont en instant desespoir,
Leur corps, & vie estiment moins que paille.
Tout bon vainqueur, aux vaincuz chemin baille
Pour s’en fuyr, sans les vouloir presser.
Garde toy doncq’de trop les oppresser:
Car s’il advient, qu’à les meurtrir t’esbates,
Tu les verras contre toy, r’adresser,
Les yeulx bendez, comme les Andabates.[1]
Notes:
1. Andabates: gladiators.
