Additional quotes by Francesco Dall'Ongaro

Povero chi si fida ad un marrano:
Terra nevosa non mena più grano.
Povera chi si fida a un disertore :
Di ramo seco non germoglia fiore.

Libero è il voto, e inviolato il dritto:
Ma la vittoria è di chi tira dritto.

Translation: Poor is he who in traitor doth confide :
Never shall snow-clad land good grain provide.
Poor she who in deserter faith doth show :
Never shall flowers on withered branches grow.

Translation: Too many for the fruit cut down the tree, And find their gain in world-wide misery. - Francesco Dall'Ongaro
