Translations

De ene minnaar geneest de andere. |
 |
Lovers cure each other. |
|
Ovidius, Remedia amoris 43-46.
Leer te genezen van degene die je geleerd heeft lief te hebben, dezelfde hand zal verwonden en hulp bieden. De aarde brengt
zowel geneeskrachtige als giftige kruiden voort en dikwijls staat de roos dichtbij de netel. |
|
Ovidius, Remedia amoris 43-46.
Learn healing from him through whom you learned to love: one hand alike will wound and succour. The same earth fosters healing
herbs and noxious, and often is the nettle nearest to the rose. |
