Et Voluisse Sat Est

Here is today's emblem and distich by Joachim Camerarius, 3:31. Camerarius' essay explains the use of the velamentum and vincula which are used in hawking; even when restrained in this way, the hawk strives to fly up and away.

Et Voluisse Sat Est
Saepius excelsis tenuis res officit ausis,
Et tamen attollit mens generosa caput.

Here is the vocabulary:
