Limping in front of a lame person

Limping in front of a lame person, [Whole folio] An emblematical miniature illustrating the proverb 'you shouldn't limp in front of a lame person'.The scene contrasts a lame man leaning on his crutch with a richly dressed figure holding a bell. It is also a pun on the twin meanings of 'cloche' ['limp' and 'bell']. The scene illustrates a love poem dedicated by Pierre Sala to Marguerite Builloud Image taken from Love Poems. Originally published/produced in France; early 16th century.
