Amicus meus osculi me tradidit signo:
Quem osculatus fuero, ipse est, tenete eum:
Hoc malum fecit signum, qui per osculum ad implevit homicidium.
Infelix praetermisit pretium sanguinis, et in fine laquaeo se suspendit.
Bonum erat illi, si natus non fuisset homo ille.
Infelix praetermisit pretium sanguinis, et in fine laquaeo se suspendit.

The sign by which my friend betrayed me was a kiss:
He whom I kiss, that is he: hold him fast.
He who committed murder by a kiss gave this wicked sign.
The unhappy wretch repaid the price of blood and in the end hanged himself.
It had been better for that man if he had never been born.
The unhappy wretch repaid the price of blood and in the end hanged himself.

Il mio amico usò un bacio per tradirmi:
"Colui che sarà baciato, è Lui: prendeteLo!:
Questo male fece segnale: chi per un bacio compì un omicidio.
L'infelice rifiutò il prezzo del sangue, ed infine, piangendo, si impiccò.
Sarebbe stato meglio per lui se non fosse mai nato.
L'infelice rifiutò il prezzo del sangue, ed infine, piangendo, si impiccò.
