Protectio amoris.
Psalm. 17. v. 3.

Gregor.
Homil. 35.
Si protegente nos Domino vir-
tutem patientiæ seruare con-
tendimus, & in pace Ecclesiæ
viuimus, omnino martyrij
palmam tenemus.

Ps. 73
Ne tradas bestijs animas confitentes tibi[Bible, Psalms 74:19]

Ces bestes ne me sont offence
Quand i’ay la Croix pour ma defence.

[blanco]

Protection de l’amovr.
Toute la haine meurtriere
De ceste troupe carnaciere
Ne me sçauroit donner la peur;
Car l’Amour me baillant ses armes
Ie me ris dedans mes alarmes,
Et tout tremble sous ma valeur.
