Concerning the falena.<\/strong> The falena is an animal originating in remote parts of the world, having been given and having been created for vengeance and retribution upon proud humans. For this animal with a certain natural indignation curses the pride of humans and, if it accepted the opportunity to join in battle, it firmly peruses a fight and as the victor over pride severely strives to mutilate man. On the contrary, if it detects an indication of humility in a man it runs into as a result of flight and fear, it sometimes halts and allows that man to escape.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n congredior, congredi, congressus sum <\/strong>dep. 3. join in battle; approach<\/em><\/p>\n constanter <\/strong>adv. persistently; constantly; firmly<\/em><\/p>\n deprehendo, deprehendere, deprehendi, deprehensus<\/strong> 3 detect; recognize<\/em><\/p>\n detestor, detestari, -, detestatus sum<\/strong> dep. 1 detest\/loathe<\/em><\/p>\n discerpo, discerpere, discerpsi, discerptus <\/strong>3 mutilate<\/em><\/p>\n econtra<\/strong> adv. on the contrary<\/em><\/p>\n evado, evadere, evasi, evasus<\/strong> 3 escape<\/em><\/p>\n humiliatio, humiliationis <\/strong>n. 3 humility<\/em><\/p>\n inclementer <\/strong>adv. severely<\/em><\/p>\n indicium, indici(i) <\/strong>neut. indication<\/em><\/p>\n indignatio, indignationis <\/strong>neut. indignation; anger<\/em><\/p>\n insisto, insistere, insisti <\/strong>3 pursue<\/em><\/p>\n interdum<\/strong> adv. sometimes<\/em><\/p>\n nitor, niti, nisus sum <\/strong>dep. 3 strive<\/em><\/p>\n obvius, -a, -um<\/strong> adj. run into<\/em><\/p>\n occasio, ocassionis<\/strong> fem. 3 opportunity<\/em><\/p>\n orbis, orbis<\/strong> masc. 3 world<\/em><\/p>\n subsistio, subsistere, substiti<\/strong> 3 halt<\/em><\/p>\n superbus, -a, um <\/strong>adj. proud<\/em><\/p>\n ultio, ultionis<\/strong> fem. 3 retribution<\/em><\/p>\n vindicta, vindictae<\/strong> fem. 1 vengeance<\/em><\/p>\n remotis orbis partibus<\/em>: partitive genitive.<\/p>\n nascens<\/em>: present active participle.<\/p>\n datum<\/em>: perfect passive participle.<\/p>\n creatum<\/em>: perfect passive participle.<\/p>\n naturali quadam indignatione<\/em>: ablative of means, expressing the means by which something is done.<\/p>\n acceperit<\/em>: can be translated as perfect active subjunctive or future active indicative.
