1308:1
83. Utrique, per sanctum fervorem et proficiendi curam resistitur. — Contra equum clangor tubae insenat, quando electi menteM in eo quod agit fortiter e vicino quedam posita eulpa terribiliter tentat. Sed fervens et fremens sorbet terram, quia nimio ardore semetipsum discutit; et quidquid in se lerreDum reperit, quotidie proliciendo consumit. Et clangorem tubae sonare non reputat, quia consideratione forti omne vitium qnod de virtutis gloria nascitur sollicitus doeliuat. Sonare enim clangorem tubæ reputaret, si fortasse propter aliud quod prave suboritur alia agere recia metoeret.
83. Both are resisted by holy fervour and by care for advancement. — Against the steed the blare of the trumpet sounds, when some fault set close at hand terribly tempts the mind of the elect in that very thing which he does bravely. But fervent and snorting he swallows up the earth, because with exceeding ardour he shakes himself, and whatever earthly thing he finds in himself, he daily consumes by advancing. And he does not reckon the blare of the trumpet to be sounding, because with strong consideration he anxiously wears away every vice that is born from the glory of virtue. For he would reckon the trumpet's blare to be sounding, if perhaps, on account of another thing that wickedly arises, he feared to do the right things.
八十三。以聖潔的熱忱和長進的關切抵擋二者。——當某過犯就近擺在旁邊，在選民所勇敢從事之事上可怕地試探他的心志時，號角便向這駿馬吹響。但牠火熱而噴氣，吞下泥土，因為牠以極大的熱切震動自己，凡在自身找到的屬地之物，都藉長進而日日消滅。牠不以號角為吹響，因為牠以剛強的省察憂心地磨除凡從德行的榮耀所生的一切惡習。因為牠若因另一件邪惡生起之事而懼怕行當行的正事，那才算是號角在吹響。
1308:2
Quia ergo ad agenda fortia ante insonantia tentamenta non trepidat, in fervore suo positus clangorem ibæ minime form!daL Sæpe antem dum prosperari se virtutibus con. spiciL, ne ipsa illum virtutum prosperitas elevet, - pulsari se tentationibus gaudet. Unde el apte subjungitur:
Because, therefore, he does not tremble before the temptations that sound forth against the doing of brave deeds, being set in his fervour he by no means fears the blare of the trumpet. But often, while he beholds himself prospering in virtues, lest that very prosperity of virtues lift him up, he rejoices to be beaten by temptations. Whence it is aptly added:
所以，因牠在號角吹響、抵擋勇敢作為的試探之前並不戰慄，牠既立於自己的熱忱中，便絲毫不懼號角之聲。但牠往往一面看見自己在諸德上興盛，卻惟恐這德行的興盛使自己自高，便以被試探擊打為喜樂。故此貼切地接著說：
