Your courteous question pleases me so, that I cannot and will not hide from you. I am Arnaut, who weeping and singing go; Contrite I see the folly of the past, And, joyous, I foresee the joy I hope for one day. Therefore do I implore you, by that power Which guides you to the summit of the stairs, Remember my suffering, in the right time.
