TextTRIPLUMTribum que non abhorruit indecenter ascendere furibunda non metuit Fortuna cito vertere dum duci prefate tribus in sempiternum speculum parare palam omnibus non pepercit patibulum. populus ergo ventirus si trans metam ascenderit quidem si forsitan casurus cum tanta tribus ruerit sciat eciam quis fructus delabi sit in profundam: "Post zephyros plus ledit hyems post gaudia luctus; unde nichil melius quam nil habuisse secundum". MOTETUS Quoniam secta latronum spelunca vispilionum vulpes que Gallos roderat tempore quo regnaverat leo cecatus subito suo ruere merito in morta privata bonis concinat Gallus Nasonis dicta que dolum acuunt: "omnia sunt hominum tenui pendencia filo et subito casu que valuere ruunt". TENOR Merito hec patimur. TranslationTRIPLUMIn a flash, raging Fortune fearlessly toppled the tribe which did not shrink from seizing power in a disgraceful way; she did not spare its leader the gibbet. that she might reduce him publicly as an eternal example for all men. If any people in the future should go beyond the limit. in which case they may well fall since such a tribe has just fallen. they should know what fruits falling to the depths will be: after the gentle West Wind the stormy tempest bears more affliction; so also of sorrow after joy; from which it follows that nothing is better than to have nothing favourable. MOTETUS Since the band of thieves. the den of grave-robbers. and the fox who gnawed away at the roosters while the blind lion reigned all have suddenly fallen by their own faults and encountered death deprived of their possessions. may the rooster now sing the words of Ovid which cuttingly mock their deceit: all man's fortunes are held suspended by a thread and when suddenly it breaks. those who were strong fall. TENOR Justly we suffer this. Text revision and translation © Alexander Blachly |
