Un Lion blessé & mordu par un Chien
[f16914351]
Un Lion blessé & mordu par un Chien
Nec cæsus cedam
Tour blessé que je suis, je ne me rendrai pas
Anorche ferito non mi renderò mai
Aunque sea herido no me rendirè
Hoewel ik gewont ben, zal ik my niet opgeeven
Tho’ I am vvounded I’ll not surrender my self
Ob ich schon verwundet bin, vvil ich mich doch nicht ergeben
