Quotes
Of ladies, knights, of passions and of wars,
of courtliness, and of valiant deeds I sing.
What a man sees, Love can make invisible—and what is invisible, that can Love make him see.
The higher up on Fortune's wheel you see
A wretch ascend, the sooner he will fall,
And where his head is now, his feet will be.
Driven raving mad by love—and he a man who had been always esteemed for his great prudence.
Who seems most hideous when adorned the most.
Such fire was not by water to be drowned,
Nor he his nature changed by changing ground.
Ah, cruel Love! What is the reason why
You seldom make our longings correspond?
How is it, traitor, you rejoice to spy
Two hearts discordant, one repelled, one fond?
Reflect, ye gentle dames, that much they know,
Who gain experience from another's woe.
Che l'uomo il suo destin fugge di raro.
Ordina l'uomo e Dio dispone.
Natura il fece, e poi roppe la stampa.
That’s all the quotes.
