Remisitque Joas rex Israël ad Amasiam regem Juda, dicens: Carduus Libani misit ad cedrum quæ est in Libano, dicens: Da filiam tuam filio meo uxorem. Transieruntque bestiæ saltus quæ sunt in Libano, et conculcaverunt carduum.
And Joas, king of Israel, sent again to Amasias, king of Juda, saying: A thistle of Libanus sent to a cedar tree, which is in Libanus, saying: Give thy daughter to my son to wife. And the beasts of the forest, that are in Libanus, passed, and trod down the thistle.
Et remitte Ioase rege Israële ad Amasia rege Iuda, dicente: carduo de Libano mitte ad cedro que es in Libano, dicente: da filia tuo ad filio meo uxore. Et transi de bestia saltus que es in Libano, et conculca carduo.
