Translations
 |
Wanneer er met mij gezwaaid wordt, herleef ik. |
 |
When shaken I revive. |
|
Ovidius, Remedia amoris 731-734.
Net als as die bijna gedoofd is weer tot leven komt als je het in aanraking brengt met zwavel, en er uit een heel klein een
machtig vuur komt, Zo zal, als je niet vermijdt wat je liefde mag terugroepen, het vuur dat net nog niets was, weer oplaaien. |
|
Ovidius, Remedia amoris 731-734.
Just as a cinder nearly spent will live, if you touch it with sulphur, and from a small become a mighty fire, so, save you
shun whatever may renew your passion, the flame that was lately naught will glow once more. |
