| Comment | Cavallo (2006: 135) misread the folio number from Bees (1998: 540) catalogue to 259v and gives no text but a partial translation: 'Il y en qui, dans leur vie, se fatiguent à chercher de l'or, d'autres à chercher de la terre ou des perles, et à accumuler avidement des richesses (...) ayant trouvé non pas des perles, des pierres précieuses ou de l'or, mais avec sagesse la beauté des paroles divines; grâce à l'amour divin il a acquis la seule richesse qui dure, puisque tout ce qui appartient à la vie terrestre s'en va, tandis que seul le Verbe demeure'. A drawing of the picture can be found in Bees (1998: 541). |
