Summarium

Descriptio
English: John Gower in a portrait from a book with his Vox Clamantis and Chronica Tripertita in Glasgow Univ. Lib., MS Hunter 59 (T.2.17) folio 6v. This is from a revised edition of the book published c. 1400 (before Gower's death). Gower is depicted as an archer with a bow and arrow. Gower prepares to shoot the world, a sphere with compartments representing earth, air, and water. Stockton speculates that the lower half represents the peasantry; the upper quarters represent clergy and nobility.[1]:342 Text on the above image in one version of the Vox Clamantis reads "I hurl my darts at the world and I shoot my arrows; Yet where there is a just man, no arrow strikes. But I wound those transgressors who live evilly; Therefore, let him who is conscious of being in the wrong look to himself in that respect."[1]:342 Ref from: http://special.lib.gla.ac.uk/exhibns/chaucer/contemporaries.html

Latin text, transcription: 

Ad mundum mitto mea iacula dumque sagitto
At vbi iustus erit nulla sagitta ferit
Sed male viventes hos vulnero transgredientes
Conscius ergo sibi se speculetur ibi

Latin text, translation, d.lib.rochester.edu : 

I send my darts at the world and simultaneously shoot arrows;
But mind you, wherever there is a just man, no one will receive arrows.
I badly wound those living in transgression, however;
Therefore, let the thoughtful man look out for himself.
