by Folgore da San Geminiano (flourished 1309-1317)

Settembre
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Di settembre vi do diletti tanti:
falconi, astori, smerletti, sparvieri;
lunghe, gherbegli, geti con carnieri,
brachette con sonagli, pasto e guanti;
bolz' e balestre dritt' e ben portanti,
archi, strali, ballotte e ballottieri;
síanvi mudati guilfanghi ed astieri
nidaci e di tutt' altri uccel volanti,
che fosser buoni da snidar e prendere:
e l'un a l'altro tuttavia donando,
e possasi rubar, e non contendere,
quando con altra gente rincontrando;
la vostra borsa si' acconcia a spendere,
e tutti abbiate l'avarizia in bando.
