2. How to Recover from a Dance Mishap, 1538 [from Negri]

Inspirational advice from the Past: it's not whether you
fall on your face, but how you finish the dance that matters.

"When you fall, pick yourself up quickly, and go back to finishing the
dance energetically without complaining at all: pa-trim pa-tro-lo! And
if you don't get up, you will not be able to fall any further: there
is nowhere to fall for one who is lying on the floor."
