4 Suits 06
Timore 06 TIMOR fa sempre che un non si difende, Ma supplice ai contrasti se dimostra E senz'arme adoprar vinto se rende. FEAR makes so that someone never defends himself, And in case of conflict chooses to implore And surrenders without using his weapons.	Gelosia 06 GELOSIA sempre non debbe volere Il concorrente per nimico; anzi esso, Se vincer vol, dié pazienza avere. JEALOUSY must not always take the rival As an enemy; on the contrary, if he Wants to win, he must be patient.	Speranza 06 SPERANZA, sei pure amica a natura! Tu tieni i toi seguaci in tanta pace, Che alcun patir non li par cosa dura. HOPE gives by itself to the soul That which the soul desires, and it seems It already has it, and it finds no resitance.	Amore 06 AMOR, se qualche volta ha un cor ferito, E lo resani cum quel proprio strale, Oh quanto è nel suo regno favorito! LOVE, if sometimes you wound an heart, And heal it with that same arrow, How much it is favoured in your kingdom!
