Quotes

“Dame, ensi est qu'il m'en convient aler,Et departir de la doce contrée,Ou tant ai mauz soffers et endurez;Quant je vos lais, droiz est, que je m'en hée:Dex! porquoi fu la terre d'outremer,Qui tant amans aura fait desevrer,Dont puis ne fu l'amour reconforté,Ne ne porent lor joie remembrer?”
