Fallor in cursu.
Dum cursu superabat Equos Atalanta fugaces.
Quæ nec danda viro, nec redimenda fuit,
Provocat Hippomenes, jacet aurea poma per agros,
Quæ juveni virgo non sibi, victa legit.

Amor industrioso.
Far gli afflitti, e roder guanti
Con le Dame poco gioua,
Sol' con l'Or pietá si trova,
Da le Belle, o Ciechi Amanti.

Amour ingenieux.
Il falloit emporter Atalante a la course,
Cette belle lassoit le plus hardy coureur;
Mais l'Amour employant la derniére resource,
L'éblouit d'un peu d'or, et la liure au vainqueur.

de Liefde is Listig.
Wie Attalante wil Verwinnen in haar Loop
Die moet Zig Waapenen met Moed en Listig heden;
De min bediend Zig van Gulde Appels en zyn hoop
Ziet hy volvoerd, en is met zyne Prys te Vreeden.
