Il topo significava esso, come topo, dov'era nato aversi fatto la casa, cioè aversi fondato la gente. L'uccello significava aver ivi esso gli auspìci, cioè, come vedremo appresso, che non era ad altri soggetto ch'a Dio.
The mouse signified that, like a mouse, where it was born, it had made its home, that is, it had founded its people. The bird signified that it had the auspices there, that is, as we will see later, that it was subject to no one but God.
