Video istic cruces non unius
quidem generis sed aliter ab aliis fabricatas : capite
quidam conversos in terram suspendere, alii per
obscena stipitem egerunt, alii brachia patibulo ex-
plicuerunt ; video fidiculas, video verbera, et membris
singulis articulis 1 singula nocuerunt 2 machinamenta.
At video et mortem. Sunt istic hostes cruenti, cives
superbi; sed video istic et mortem. Non est molestum
[p. 70]
servire, ubi, si dominii pertaesum est, licet uno gradu
ad libertatem transire. Caram te, vita, beneficio
mortis habeo !
