Periculosum est incidere in Amorem sui
C’est une chose périlleuse de tombet dans l’amour de soi même
E cosa pericolosa inamorarsi di se medemo
Es peligroso de enamorarse de si mismo
Het is gevaarlyk zich zelven te beminnen
It is dangerous to fall in love vvith himself
Es ist gefährlich in sich selbsten verliebt zu vverden
