LXXXIII.

The Traveller. Viator.

[Illustration]

A _Traveller_, 1. beareth on his shoulders in a _Budget_, 2. those things which his _Satchel_, 3. or _Pouch_, 4. cannot hold. Viator, 1. portat humeris in _Bulga_, 2. quæ non capit _Funda_, 3. vel _Marsupium_, 4.

He is covered with a _Cloak_, 5. Tegitur _Lacernâ_, 5.

He holdeth a _Staff_, 6. in his hand wherewith to bear up himself. Tenet _Baculum_, 6. Manu quo se fulciat.

He hath need of _Provision for the way_, as also of a pleasant and merry _Companion_, 7. Opus habet _Viatico_, ut & fido & facundo _Comite_, 7.

Let him not forsake the _High-road_, 9. for a _Foot-way_, 8. unless it be a _beaten Path_. Non deserat _Viam regiam_ propter _Semitam_, 8. nisi sit _Callis tritus_.

_By-ways_, 10. and _places where two ways meet_, 11. deceive and lead men aside _Avia_, 10. & _Bivia_, 11. fallunt & seducunt, into _uneven-places_, 12. so do not _By-paths_, 13. and _Cross-ways_, 14. in _Salebras_, 12. non æquè _Tramites_, 13. & _Compita_, 14,

Let him therefore enquire of _those he meeteth_, 15. which way he must go; Sciscitet igitur _obvios_, 15. quà sit eundum; and let him take heed of _Robbers_, 16. as in the _way_, so also in the _Inn_, 17. where he lodgeth all Night. & caveat _Prædones_, 16. ut in _viâ_, sic etiam in _Diversorio_, 17. ubi pernoctat.
