Durate [54]
Durate.
Nonne vides silices ut duros gutta perennis
Saxáque stillicidis casus & ipsa cavet,
Vtque annosa cadat repetitis ictibus ilex?
Sic dabit urgenti victa puella manus.

Met ghedult.
Den boom met d'eerste slach en valt niet in 't beginnen:
Maer in 't volherden wel door slaghen veelderley,
't Ghestadigh druppen hoolt een steen of herde key.
Den minnaer met gedult 't hert van zijn lief moet winnē

Den minnaer met gedult 't hert van zijn lief moet winnē
Patience vaincqt tout.
Du premier coup de hache on n'abbat un gros arbre:
Ainsi au fait d'Amour, on doibt de longue main,
Et a la sappe vaincre un courage hautain.
La goutte continue en fin creuse le marbre.
Ainsi au fait d'Amour, on doibt de longue main,
Et a la sappe vaincre un courage hautain.
La goutte continue en fin creuse le marbre.
