Durabo

Here is today's emblem and distich by Gabriel Rollenhagen, Book 1.26, with an English rendering by George Wither. Here is more of Wither's poem, inspired by Rollenhagen's emblem:

The little Squirrell, hath no other Food
Then that which Natures thrifty hand provides;
And, in purveying up and downe the Wood,
She many cold wet Stormes, for that, abides.
She lyes not heartlesse in her Mossie Dray,
Nor feareth to adventure through the Raine;
But skippeth out, and beares it as she may,
Vntill the Season waxeth calme againe.

I really like this image of the little squirrel in the rain as a sign of endurance, just waiting for the rain to stop so that the sun can come shining through.

Durabo
Durabo, et quondam res exspectabo secundas:
Quamvis nunc male sit, non male semper erit.

With Patience, I the Storme sustaine;
For, Sun-shine still doth follow Raine.

Here is the vocabulary:

duro - make hard, be hard, endure
et - and
quondam - once, some day, hereafter
res - thing, business, affair
exspecto - await, expect
secundus - favorable
quamvis - although
nunc - now
male - badly, bad
sum - be, exist
non - not, no
semper - always
